Good job — you had me going there for a minute. Good satire must have an element of truth -— and this sure has it!!!!

Warren Billingsley, Democrat from Buffalo, New York, and co-sponsor of the 'Voter Education and Inclusion Act.'
No doubt a supporter of Spitzer's driver licenses for illegals plan too.
These people are a serious threat to the Constitution and freedom and need be dealt with in the most severe terms.

If we could only get back to the days when our re-election and control of Congress was guaranteed and; the people hardly knew there was a Republican Party.

Thought I would brighten up everyone’s Monday with this one, this week is going to be hell coming from the Hill. Thank God for Duncan Hunter.

[KingKenrod]

I can’t find any information about the politicians mentioned in this article, and no information about the bill itself.

I think this is a hoax.

[My Favorite Headache]

I hate Democrats...have I mentioned that lately? I mean I really really really really really really really really hate them.

On one side of their bullshit argument they want to cite the argument for disenfranchised votes (total Gore 2000 made up B.S.) and then we have them not wanting to recognize the #1 Cable News channel in the nation because it is not considered a real news source?

This is not only a waste of tax payer’s dollars..it is communism.

Dagnabbit, I’ve been had.

I suspect FNC is going to have a lot of fun with this and make asses of the democrats who sponsored the amendment.

I think they've made asses out of themselves, and in so doing have once again chosen to emulate their Party's mascot.

[trumandogz]

The name of the bill is the “Voter Education and Inclusion Act.’

I suggest you do not waste any time and call your Congressman right now and voice you objections!

President Bush held a press conference just this morning with Bill Clinton who are urging Congress to pass the Voter Education and Inclusion Act.’

[NeoCaveman]

Why in the hell are we paying for the poor to watch cable?

[avacado]

"Moreover, the article has another mistake. It is not 3 billion for free cable but actually 3 trillion dollars for Free Cable to the Poor."

$3 trillion? Do you have a source for this?

[jwalburg]

That's what the headline should be. Democrats seek to censor shows for welfare recipients

[Gabz]

Good job -— LOL!

[AD from SpringBay]

Another major effort at conducting the nation’s business.

"Mash that dirty red scum, kick 'em in the teeth where it hurts. Kill! Kill! Kill! The filthy bastard commies, I hate 'em! I hate 'em! Aaargh! Aaargh!"

[Trueblackman]

It is Satire for a Monday Morning, I put humor, but it did not come up.

[jimfree]

Bill of attainder again?

[trumandogz]

$3 trillion? Do you have a source for this?

This morning President Bush and Bill Clinton held a joint press conference to advocate this bill and said that it would cost 3 trillion.

Bush demanded that Congress have the bill on his desk by Tuesday morning.

[Iron Munro]

I would like to see a reort on political contributions and other pay offs from the cable TV industry to the sponsors of this bill.

Wouldn’t it be a treat if there was a law requiring every sponsor and supporter of a bill to include a summary of all contact and financial transactions with any person or entity that will be directly or indirectly affected by a proposed law?

[mouske]

We do not buy cable TV. My wife and I were raised in the era of free, black and white TV. It just seems wrong to have to pay to watch TV.
