Government resolves to start making sense under new law forb

"WASHINGTON — The federal government is rolling out a new official language of sorts: plain English.

That’s right: Pursuant to regulations promulgated thereunder and commencing in accordance with a statute signed herein by President Barack Obama, the government shall be precluded from writing the pompous gibberish heretofore evidenced, to the extent practicable."

I guess we need a new department to oversee this. Probably rates a cabinet level appointment. At first I thought is was something from the onion.

This would go against the Talking Heads movie "Stop Making Sense." Did the expiration date finally happen? And how does water have an expiration date?

I wouldn't advise either of you holding your breath waiting for this to actually occur.
