 In
a victory for fiscal responsibility and common sense,
Congress has passed legislation that will finally stop

achievement. ''We just passed a bill that says if you're
dead, you don't get Social Security, I know that sounds
crazy, but apparently we needed to spell it out for the
federal bureaucrats.''

Confederate general, and Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.,

celebrated across the country, while Robert E. Lee's
birthday is only celebrated in two states that were part of
the Confederate South, Alabama and Mississippi. Not wanting
to create two holidays in January, the birthdays were
combined, a poor pairing, with one man fighting for slavery,
one fighting against it.

life, meaning he would be eligible for parole in the year
2917. More |
