Autie Maxine is SO cool (if I read it correctly) There was a voice vote on some amendments....

....she requested a recorded vote but then backed off. So a republican got up to do so but was chatting, Representative Watters got up and said, "we're going to get this right", and requested a recorded vote, beating the republican to the punch.

I hope I'm as sharp as her when I'm her age.

You'd lose the Pelosis and Waters--and Schiffs and Lius and Swallwells. with them. Besides, we already have term limits. They're called "elections."
