I wanna hear the Dems get mad.   :-)

nancy is NOT clapping to make the tax cuts permanent... Cheney is though.. Cheney is smiling though.

My few remaining recommendations all relate to a basic right of our citizens--that of being represented in the decisions of the government.

I hope that the States will cooperate with the Congress in adopting uniform standards in their voting laws that will make it possible for our citizens in the armed forces overseas to vote.
In the District of Columbia the time is long overdue for granting national suffrage to its citizens and also applying the principle of local self-government to the Nation's Capital. I urge the Congress to move promptly in this direction and also to revise District revenue measures to provide needed public works improvements.

The people of Hawaii are ready for statehood. I renew my request for this legislation in order that Hawaii may elect its State officials and its representatives in Washington along with the rest of the country this fall.

For years our citizens between the ages of 18 and 21 have, in time of peril, been summoned to fight for America. They should participate in the political process that produces this fateful summons. I urge Congress to propose to the States a constitutional amendment permitting citizens to vote when they reach the age of 18.

-President Eisenhower, January 1954.

I've had waitresses do that.  It usually means you're in a very expensive restaurant.

191. Issuing another executive order....
   While I agree with the premise of what he's saying, the president has no business setting how Congress conducts its business. Surely they will fight this.

ha ha ha ha ha.  How is the President telling congress how to conduct business?

I know the kind of place you are referring to.  the last place like that I patronized was called "Cheetah III".

he crammed the success of "no child left behind" down their throats.  not my favorite piece of legislation ever, but it has had results that you never hear about.
