The New Cabinet

Congressman Dennis J. Kucinich (of the Ohio 10th) has introduced legislation mandating the creation of a Department of Peace, co-equal to the departments of Defense and Education and so on. In a press release, Captain Groovy, I mean Congressman Kucinich, stated "The Department of Peace would serve to promote non-violence as an organizing principle in our society, and help to create the conditions for a more peaceful world."

In a related story, Bryant Gries, Editor at Large for Make me a Commentator!!! proposed the creation of a Department of Commentary, co-equal to the Departments of Funk and Commerce and so on. Bryant stated, "The Department of Commentary would serve to promote snide commentary as an organizing principle in our society, help to create the conditions for a more prosperous bank account."
