LOL!
Congress = old men and women with dirty depends...the smell must be unpleasant.
>>This is where we need to amend the Constitution...ALL legislation, including and especially spending bills, shall be posted for PUBLIC review, for no less than seven business days, prior to congressional votes on passage of the legislation.
