Plans include a new convention center, shopping center, hotels, condos, cottages and time-shares.The influx of thousands of visitors will undoubtedly overtax the current water allotment from the Floridan Aquifer. To meet increasing water requirements, Governor Sonny Perdue had better spend more time praying to bring down a deluge of biblical proportions...

In the end, perhaps Bush’s attitude can lend us some perspective about what we ought to value in America. Instead of striving for scientific progress, revolutionary strides in improving health or even moral integrity, let’s just sit back and count our world records...
