You just can't make this sh*t up: the "No Fear Act".
Or "Notification and Federal Employee Antidiscrimination and Retaliation Act".

Does legislation that can't be summarized in a clumsy acronym ever get passed? I can just imagine cabinet meetings: "Sure, world peace is a nice idea, but we can't think of terrible enough acronym for it, so we've decided against it."
