I and my family have found a great way to help conserve water at http://www.mitchsgreenflush.com and its right here in georgia. The green flush product allows you to only use one gallon of water to flush your toilet and costs just $19.95. A typical ga family could save thousands of gallons a year and the cost would be repaid in about a month.

Doggone, I also object to my tax dollars being spent killing innocent children — specifically, those already born. Do you think the government will halt the drone bombings in Iraq and Afghanistan IMMEDIATELY at my behest? They’re my tax dollars after all, and I object! (I’m sure my Congressman is giving serious consideration to my feelings right now, and is not actually ignoring me.)
