BREAKING: word that the Constitution of the United States was inexplicably consumed by flames in its nuclear blast-proof storage case by a glowing ember that apparently drifted from the Eisenhower Executive Office Building and into a thermal exhaust port that lead directly to the Constitution.

As the sprinkler system was not functioning, the Blackwater employees hired to guard the records could only throw more records onto the flames in an attempt to contain them. Additional records from a neighboring closet presently unaccounted for that are believed to have been destroyed in the fire now include items related to: (110) All subpoenas issued by the U.S. Congress to White House employees (111) Walter Reed facility maintenance (112) NASA’s evidence of global warming (redacted and sealed by the administration) (113) Looting of the Native American Trust Fund (114) Forensic reports from 2001 anthrax attacks against key Democrats and media (115) Dubai Ports deal (116) Under-funding of Russian loose nuclear materials security programs (117) Guidelines for putting American citizens on no-fly and terror watch lists (118) The Vice President’s red phone that directly connects the Vice-President’s office to the on-air Fox news desk (possibly salvageable) More details of the devastating fire to come...

"It does not take a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brush fires of freedom in the minds of men." -- Samuel Adams (1722-1803)‡
I heard the fire started because a shredding machine overheated.
To reason, indeed, he was not in the habit of attending. His mode of arguing, if it is to be so called, was one not uncommon among dull and stubborn persons, who are accustomed to be surrounded by their inferiors. He asserted a proposition; and, as often as wiser people ventured respectfully to show that it was erroneous, he asserted it again, in exactly the same words, and conceived that, by doing so, he at once disposed of all objections. - Macaulay, "History of England," Vol. 1, Chapter 6, on James II.
