Congress Threatens To Leave D.C. Unless New Capitol Is Built

WASHINGTON, DC—Calling the current U.S. Capitol "inadequate and obsolete," Congress will relocate to Charlotte or Memphis if its demands for a new, state-of-the-art facility are not met, leaders announced Monday.

In other actions, they voted themselves a pay raise, resolved to work less during the year, and demanded an end to free elections.

"Sure, the capitol's a little beat-up, but it's got its charms," said Geoff Lapointe, a Glendale, CA, voter. "The real problem is the legislators. Back in the old days, you had big stars like John Kennedy and Richard Nixon. Who've they got today? Evan Bayh? Paul Sarbanes? Who's gonna get excited about those guys?"

Good story

Anything you read from the Onion is made up. I only use them as a source if I want to make a joke or something.
