It was so easy! Go along to get along, vote for capitulation and call it compromise. Piece of cake! In fact, all that work involved in giving a rat’s ass and fighting the good fight and protecting and defending the Constitution seems silly in retrospect. Just show up, vote whatever’s easy and then forget about it and hit the bar. Collect that taxpayer-funded paycheck and tell said taxpayers to kiss their pampered asses. “Man oh man,” one was heard to say, “why didn’t we think of this years ago????????”
And so today – on your dime and mine, babies – the House of Representatives voted:
- To congratulate James Madison University in Harrisburg, Virginia, for 100 years of service to the region, the state, and the nation. (H.R. 1051)
- To support the goals and ideals of Black Music Month and to honor the outstanding contributions that African American singers and musicians have made to the United States. (Hasn’t anyone told them that black Americans do more than sing, dance and play basketball??) (H.Con.Res. 372)
- Honoring the life, musical accomplishments, and contributions of Louis Jordan on the 100th anniversary of his birth. (One would think the eminently talented Mr. Jordan was covered by H Con Res 372, but apparently not.) (H.R. 1242)
