... or was it a touchdown?
I am not sure what quarter it is ... maybe the 1st or 2nd. If it's the 3rd or 4th quarter - It sucks because I missed the half time show. I think that we are winning, but no one can tell me what the score is, but I don't think we are losing - maybe it's a tie.
But at least we scored a field goal! ... or a touchdown!
Hoorah!
I know that I should be happy, but I can't help but be depressed because of what lies ahead:
The House still hasn't passed a bill.
The Senate still hasn't passed a bill.
The conference committee still hasn't reconciled the two bills that they haven't passed.
The House still hasn't voted on the reconciled bill from the conference committee that hasn't been written yet.
The Senate still hasn't voted on the reconciled bill from the conference committee that hasn't been written yet.
President Obama still hasn't had a bill sent to his desk to sign.

And the most depressing part ...
Each and every one of the Republican Senators and Congresspeople haven't had a chance to use every second of their allotted time in each House to condemn, lie, scare, deceive and slow down the process.
Each and every one of the Republican Senators and Congresspeople haven't had a chance to introduce as many amendments (that they know will never pass) that they can think of to water down and slow down the process.
Who knows what kind of tricks the Blue Dogs and Conservadems have up their sleeves.
-------
And what's even more depressing ...
Financial regulation, climate control, immigration etc., etc. etc. are all "games" that haven't even started yet.
-------
And the most depressing thing ...
The Patriot Act - which no one completely understands to this day - completed it's "game" in 3 days!

God Bless America! But may God spite the "only could be made in America" legislative process with all of his might!
