Do we have permission to get rid of the Stimulus bill, also?

You first. Get rid of the Patriot Act, the warrantless
wiretapping and all
the rest and then you can talk.

Why would you want to get rid of the first intelligent bill introduced in
America for 8 years?

So your stating that the democratic controlled congress during the Bush administration never passed an intelligent bill?

I have no problem believing that!

wikipedia
"In the 1996 and 1998 elections, Republicans lost Congressional seats but still retained control of the House and, more narrowly,
the Senate. After the 2000 election, the Senate was divided evenly between the parties, with Republicans retaining the right to
organize the Senate due to the election of Dick Cheney as Vice President and ex officio presiding officer of the Senate. The Senate
shifted to control by the Democrats (though they technically were the plurality party as they were one short of a majority) after
GOP senator Jim Jeffords changed party registration to "Independent" in June 2001, but later returned to Republican control after
the November 2002 elections. In the 2006 elections, Democrats won both the House of Representatives (233 Democrats, 202 Republicans)
and the Senate (49 Democrats, 49 Republicans, and 2 Independents caucusing with the Democrats) as well as the majority of state
governorships (28-22).

And we have no problem believing that you never learned in grade
school what the contraction "you're" means (it means "you are") as
opposed to "your", meaning "belonging to you".

BTW: while you're looking things up, check out procedural stalling
tactics and Presidential veto powers.

I am pretty sure none of what he has been stating has passed any bill.

There are so many people who don't understand the difference between
"your" and "you're" that I have just about given up on it, except for
trying to teach it to my students... One of the errors that seems to be
more frequent than it used to be is "then" and "than" being misused, as
well as "do" and "due". It seems that modern writers, even those with
college degrees subscribe to the theory that if it sounds the same,
what's the difference? Sigh.

You teach? Not English, I hope. The above paragraph is full of
punctuation errors. You need to brush up on the use of commas.

I usually use too many commas. Did you find it hard to understand?
Comma rules are a bit 'fuzzy', and greatly different than they were 55
years or so, when I learned English.

Please explain the errors. My only comment on the paragraph, is that there
are too few commas.
