Legislation Mugs

'Yes, we have 'All You Need To Know About The Health Care Legislation' but it is part of a twelve volume set.'

'Susan, hold all calls for the next six hours. I'm trying to comprehend the Affordable Care Act.'

'Is my face red! -- I had so many appointments with lobbyists last session, I forgot to VOTE for anything!'

'Gosh, I love government, Ed. Just when you begin to lose faith in the system, along comes a fresh crop of idealistic young lawmakers with an invigorating brand of gridlock all their own!'

'Now that we've agreed on the loopholes, should we start drafting the amendment?'

'I prefer to call it the system of checks and balances in action, senator, not gridlock.'

'So maybe it is feel-good legislation- What's wrong with feeling good?'

"Meaningful gun laws. . . ? Why, er, um, sure! Just let me reach into my magic hat. . . !"

'If you loan me five bucks for lunch, I'll co-sponsor that $80 billion appropriation bill of yours.'

Bureaucrats cooking up a new policy soup...

The Filibuster.

'Are we there yet? Are we there yet? . ..'

'In order for the new Health Care Bill to pass, we'll need to remove the option of Health and Care, and give taxpayers the bill.'

'Feel-good legislation just doesn't feel as good as it used to.'

'I'll tell you all the reasons we shouldn't reform the filibuster! 1.) It will restrict my ability to frivolously stymie everything...How long do I have to keep talking?'

'We have to pass the bill so that you can find out what is in it.'

'Stick a few upper-class tax cuts to it and it'll pass like a bran muffin dipped in vaseline.'

'We're playing 'healthcare'. Timmy's trying to Repeal it.'

"Would you care to make a side bet on that ethics bill?"

Go and sin no more.

'We're your conscience. We're here to tell you which way to vote on the upcoming bill.'

"Whatever happened to common sense?"

'Stick a few upper-class tax cuts to it and it'll pass like a bran muffin dipped in vaseline.'

If I own the artist, I own his art as well!

'Nice, but let's call them the 'Bill of Rights' instead of the 'Bill of Loopholes'.'
