From the blog of the same name:
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Congress has been approached by an alien race, hoping for cash from the proposed stimulus package. Bzzort, a spokesalien for the Milky Way’s Honn Empire, stated, “They [U.S. congress] are like a great money-throwing machine, famous throughout the galaxy. We’ll use funding to complete our war against the hated Krem and purchase psychic wave shields for our oblong fighter craft. And maybe a few cases of sipping ammonia.”
