For instance, how about passing funding to upgrade the levees in New Orleans before the break? If the city doesn't get funding, it might simply die.

Do you really think so? :-)) That if the corrupt LA/NO incompetents don't get enough shakedown money to repair the levees and pocket the rest, the decadent city of NO might die? That would truly be a Christmas present / New Year's wish all rolled into one. We can only hope so!

And by the way, trying to put a halt to the attack on Christianity and Christmas would be one of the BEST things our cowardly Congress could do this year!

Yes, letting an American city be completely destroyed instead of rebuilding it as promised is a good thing. Talk about people from other planets.

Also, that was merely one example of something better that Congress has to do besides passing a bill in support of Christmas, as if it needs supporting.
