	The last time I checked the Democrats were still
the majority party in Congress. I wonder why there were so many
close votes during this session. Anything who watchs CSPAN can
tell you that the majority exercised it's rights to bully every
chance it got. Kinda like a kid who says, "It's my football
and I make the rules or I go home." A lot of the bills that died
deserved it and other good legislation proposed by moderates
were killed by the liberal leadership. The so-called "gridlock"
managaged to save the American people from even more inane 
redtape.

	BTW, would be nice if every one in the 5th district
took the time to vote against the incumbent, John Byant.
My paycheck will thank you.
