24. We should be serving popcorn to those members of the US...
....Senate and HR who are sitting in their seats, with nothing to do, because they do not have a quorum on 6 Jan 2005.

It'll be a nice gesture to remind that we are the government and we will not allow the government to proceed until a fair and properly validated election has occurred.

We did not have such an election on "2 Nov 2004" and all of us, including those members of the US Senate and House of Representatives who are truly serving our Constitution are more than happy to serve popcorn and chat with those who have defaulted on their responsibilty.

And, we can recite these words to them until they 'get it':

"Besides, sir, we shall not fight our battles alone. There is a just God who presides over the destinies of nations, and who will raise up friends to fight our battles for us. The battle, sir, is not to the strong alone; it is to the vigilant, the active, the brave. Besides, sir, we have no election. If we were base enough to desire it, it is now too late to retire from the contest. There is no retreat but in submission and slavery! Our chains are forged. Their clanking may be heard on the plains of...." -- thank you, once again, Patrick Henry.

Peace.
