Thanks! I sent my complaint on Specter to the Muskogee office.
Received this from Sen Inhofe in my email today on Specter:
Dear xxxxxx:
Thank you for contacting me about the selection of Senate committee chairmen. As your voice in Washington, I appreciate being made aware of your views.
The rules for determining the chairmen and ranking members of committees in the United States Senate are decided by the party conferences. After a new Congress is sworn in, the majority party, (in this year's case the Senate Republican Conference), meets to determine its leadership for the new Congress. Committee assignments are given to returning and new Senators. Under Senate Republican Conference rules, the most senior members of each committee are usually chosen as chairmen and are limited to serving only six years. Once the committee assignments have been decided, the Republican committee members meet to recommend chairmen of each committee to the full Republican Conference. After this recommendation is submitted, a secret ballot is conducted among all the Republican Senators to approve or reject the recommendation.
When the Republican Conference meets to determine committee chairmen for the 109th Congress, I will keep your thoughts in mind. Again, thank you for your comments. Please do not hesitate to contact me again.
Sounds like it is still a deep comma.
BRILLIANT
(O= Officer of the Palestinian Authority, C=Chief Medical Officer) O: Oh yes, the, uh, the Chairman of the Palestinian Authority...What's,uh...What's wrong with him? C: I'll tell you what's wrong with him, my lad. 'E's dead, that's what's wrong with him! O: No, no, 'e's uh,...he's resting. C: Look, matey, I know a dead Arafat when I see one, and I'm looking at one right now. O: No no he's not dead, he's, he's restin'! Remarkable Arab, the Palestinian...., idn'it, ay? Beautiful headscarf! C: The headscarf don't enter into it. He's stone dead. O: Nononono, no, no! 'E's resting! C: All right then, if he's restin', I'll wake him up! (shouting at the body) 'Ello, Mister Arafat! I've got lovely fresh humus for you if you show...(Officer hits the bed) O: There, he moved! C: No, he didn't, that was you hitting the bed! O: I never!! C: Yes, you did! O: I never, never did anything... C: (yelling and hitting the body repeatedly) 'ELLO YASSIR!!!!! Testing! Testing! Testing! Testing! This is your nine o'clock alarm call! (Takes body off the bed and thumps its head on the counter. Throws it up in the air and watches it plummet to the floor.) C: Now that's what I call a dead Arafat. O: No, no.....No, 'e's stunned! C: STUNNED?!? O: Yeah! You stunned him, just as he was wakin' up! Palestinians stun easily, major. C: Um...now look...now look, mate, I've definitely 'ad enough of this. That Arafat is definitely deceased, and when I checked it not 'alf an hour ago, you assured me that its total lack of movement was due to it bein' tired and shagged out following a prolonged speech. O: Well, he's...he's, ah...probably pining for Jerusalem. C: PININ' for JERUSALEM?!?!?!? What kind of talk is that?, look, why did he fall flat on his back the moment I got 'im out of bed? O: The Palestinian prefers kippin' on the floor! Remarkable Arab, id'nit, squire? Lovely headscarf! C: Look, I took the liberty of examining Arafat when I got it back in bed, and I discovered the only reason that it had been sitting on the chair in the first place was that it had been NAILED there. (pause) O: Well, o'course it was nailed there! If I hadn't nailed that Arab down, it would have tried to run out of here to go back to Ramala, and VOOM! Feeweeweewee! C: "VOOM"?!? Mate, this Arab wouldn't "voom" if you put four million volts through it! 'E's bleedin' demised! O: No no! 'E's pining! C: 'E's not pinin'! 'E's passed on! This Arafat is no more! He has ceased to be! 'E's expired and gone to meet 'is maker! 'E's a stiff! Bereft of life, 'e rests in peace! If you hadn't nailed 'im to the seat 'e'd be pushing up the daisies! 'Is metabolic processes are now 'istory! 'E's off the twig! 'E's kicked the bucket, 'e's shuffled off 'is mortal coil, run down the curtain and joined the bleedin' choir invisibile!! THIS IS AN EX-ARAFAT!!
She may need more bodyguards than Yasser ever had.
Or they've got his money at any rate..
Sounds like this funeral will be more raucous than the Wellstone Nuremberg rally...
Ya gotta love modern medicine...it allows you to keep a dead man alive as long as neccessary with a ventilator, while his successors argue about the money he stole and left somewhere...thus allowing plenty of time for the Muslim burial requirement once you find the bank codes.
"Yasser...I hear you loud and clear...stop shouting...also, yes... your virgin is ready.
however, I am running short of pretty virgins and young boys
...but she is quite manly...I think you will like her...I know she is quite fond of you..."
But not for what Yassar used them for
LOL see my #82.
Nice job :)
