yep, it's on hold now. thanks, congress. and this scenario is being repeated thousands of times across this country. what else will be held up, due to a small group of angry republicans, throwing a temper tantrum cause they can't get their way?

The skunk has replaced the Eagle as the new symbol of the American Presidency. It is half black, half white, and everything it does stinks.

New Obama Proverb: If you give a man hope of getting a job, he will vote Democrat for a year! If you give a man a welfare check, a free cell phone, free internet, food stamps, section 8 housing, free contraceptives, ninety-nine weeks of unemployment, free health care and free medicine... He will vote Democrat the rest of his life and several more times after he's dead.
