I know government is stupid, but they can't have been that stupid.

Read the second link I posted.... it was not a real article and wasn't true. Not defending any of the congressmen or senators but just syaing, in this isntance, it wasn't true.

I think we all know the value of pie should be 8" or 9" any smaller and your pie does not last long, make them much bigger and they are hard to bake right.

Any talk of making the value of pie 3.14 or 3 is just plain stupid. Though the article has been shown to be a hoax, how do we know that the article saying it is a hoax is not a hoax? The moral of this story is that both parties are still out of touch with the american public, we just want pie.

Because the other article I linked refers to a Library of Congress site where you can search for bills in Congress. Not to mention the fact that the first post said right at the top, HuffPost Comedy.

Absolutely true.
