PHILADELPHIA (Reuters) - New Jersey, trying to overcome its reputation for corruption, traffic and toxic waste dumps, has rejected dozens of sardonic and sarcastic entries in a contest for a new tourist slogan.A quarter million plus for THAT? Geez.
A list of five possible slogans released on Wednesday leaves out "New Jersey: We can always use another relative on the payroll," and "Come to New Jersey: It's not as bad as it smells."
Voters get to pick the winner in the competition launched after Gov. Richard Codey nixed "New Jersey: We'll Win You Over," created by a consultant who was paid $260,000.
"American government is the entertainment division of the Military Industrial Complex."
"One deluded president plus an army of paralyzed editorialists = many more years of a war that is one big atrocity." - Greg Mitchell, Editor&Publisher "I trust God speaks through me. Without that, I couldn’t do my job." - George W. Bush
