When you are paying the AMT this year, you can thank the House for dealing with the important things first! </sarcasm>
I'm surprised it was only 28 of them .
were all the nos rats?
First the resolution rejecting an immediate withdrawal from Iraq and now this? The House Reps are on a roll!
Baloney - They had all year to deal with Taxes.
Don't hide behind your sarcasm, just state plainly you don't like the House supporting Christmas.
Whoops, looks like 30 Democrats wouldn't vote for being of favor of Christmas.
A strangely worded resolution. We should have spoken more clearly and really separated the normal folks from the Rats.
Congressman Ackerman was having a fit that this vote came to the floor.

Aaaaagh.
One of our local reps voted against.
Time to write to the local paper.
So basically congress said: "people who celebrate Christmas" think Christmas should be protected...not congress.
NAME CHANGE ALERT
Even Dingle who spoke against the bill now voted for it with the BS name change.
Well, should I retract the previous "Hooray" or just be pleased with the crumbs?
We sure do have a sorry group in D.C., don't we, as to lack of heroics and, um, simple clarity.
It will get reported as "congress protecting Christmas" and thats what matters I guess.
Dear Santa: Please remember the RATS who were "naughty" and reward those who were nice...........The Great Oz Has Spoken

Infidels
(formally Jingle Bells)
Dashing thru the sand,
With a Christian head in hand,
While we speak of peace,
Our Jihad will not cease!
Watch them wring their hands,
Just like we have planned,
Oh what fun it is to kill,
On our way to paradise!
Infidels! Infidels!
We will kill you all!
Strapping on our dynamite,
At bus stops and the malls!
Infidels! Infidels!
We will kill you all!
While we speak the words of peace,
We'll make sure that you fall!
Last Christmas
(Formally White Christmas)
I'm dreaming of the last Christmas.
Just like Muhammad has foretold.
Where the Christians are weeping,
Their corpses seeping,
Brains and blood onto the snow!
Oh Holiday Tree
(formally Oh Christmas Tree)
Oh Holiday Tree!
Oh Holiday Tree!
We have removed Christianity!
Oh Holiday Tree!
Oh Holiday Tree!
We tricked them into destiny!
We speak of peace while killing them,
They apologize for our mayhem!

We have removed Christianity!
