First I would tell them to change the part about being endowed by their creator. As you seen right here some people's creator had jokes.

Second the about life, liberty and pursuit of happiness. Well they should had made a little disclaimer about marriage drying up the life, liberty and kills happiness. Atleast for my first marriage it did.

Third they should made it bold print where we can kick out our goverment and stuck to that. I mean hell we haven't had a great goverment since Billy boy. And what made it so good with him was the Monica tales. We need more presidents like him. He was normal people.

Also come on Benjiman Franklin? I would have said "you need to just keep on flying kites there boy. Leave the thinking stuff to professionals." I mean this guy was allowed to sign one of the most important documents of our country. This guy, the guy who flies kite with keys tied to them during lighting storms.

Great thing you are doing. We should find a way to make sure giveaways get the exposure they deserve- this one is almost hidden in this section.

God Bless America :toast:

Sorry guys. Had some health realted things to deal with this last week, and it did slip my mind.
But that's just an excuse so let's finisher it up !!

This one seemed to be a bit difficult for people to simply make fun of the DoI without introducing current political problems and issues.
The two I like best are listed below.

First there is Ford's ...

Redact the whole thing and replace it with a tastefully nude painting of Benjamin Franklin draped in the French flag bro-bumping Thomas Jefferson whom is draped in the flag of the 13 colonies. King George III is painted in the foreground (back to the perspective, clearly taut with rage) watching Jefferson and Franklin stride away. It would be signed "Kreij 2012" and, on the backside where King George's face would show through, there is a painted trollface. For 236 years, people wonder what it means...and then all becomes clear: Kreij is a trolling time traveler! :laugh: Or Kreij has been framed (ha!)...by ME! http://fordgt90concept.homeip.net/trollface.gif

King George III would probably be so offended that he would have re-declared war. :roll:

While being a bit dusturbing, this is hysterical and quite creative in a very twisted way. :D

Then there is Stinger's ...

Laws can only be amended by laws through laws pertaining only to laws that allow amending laws for laws that can be amended. :laugh:

This is hysterical because it would drive politicians and lawyers insane trying to figure out if they could amend any law, at all, ever. :D

Since I think that both of these entries are worthy of the prize, I've decided to split the prize between them. So both Ford and Stinger win a $118 gift certificate to NewEgg.

PM me with you e-mail addresses so I can send them.

Thanks to everyone who entered and I look forward to having more contests in the future.
(I try to keep politics out of them. :D )
