“…But an increasing hostility on the part of the non-slaveholding States to the institution of slavery, has led to a disregard of their obligations, and the laws of the General Government have ceased to effect the objects of the Constitution…
…A geographical line has been drawn across the Union, and all the States north of that line have united in the election of a man to the high office of President of the United States, whose opinions and purposes are hostile to slavery. He is to be entrusted with the administration of the common Government, because he has declared that that “Government cannot endure permanently half slave, half free,” and that the public mind must rest in the belief that slavery is in the course of ultimate extinction….”

It has been the custom every day, since 1880, upon the opening of session, for the Sergeant-at-Arms to bear the mace ahead of the Speaker and lay it upon its specially prepared rack on the Rostrum in front of the Speaker.

Tony Powers, isn’t he the guy who does those late night self-awareness/real estate scam infomercials? Or am I confusing him with that Tom Selleck pilot that didn’t get picked up, Tony Powers, P.I.?
Or maybe I’m getting him confused with somebody I couldn’t care less about. Yeah, that’s him.

I bragged earlier that after all this, I thought I could tweet a tennis match but @GCobbHunter & @RickQuinnSC testing that theory.

But seriously, is it C-Span?

Thanks a bunch, Jenner7! Wow, I haven’t watch an NBC affiliate since General Electric took the money and ran. Stand back, I’m goin’ in! (I wish I was in Dixie, away, away…)

OK. I made the cake for my daughter’s wedding. She was touched by my doing that for her and her husband. I was also rather intimately involved in the actual wedding, so you might be able to say that the cake was a part of the wedding.
Thing is, I didn’t charge her for the cake-not even for the ingredients. It was a gift. No one is asking commercial bakeries to gift cakes to couples, so they should really get over the whole thing.

Why so many reps are against amendments is b/c it will automatically stretch out this debate for weeks, maybe months. @wis10 #scpol

It’s like this: If you’re building a funerary pyramid for a god-king, your bar mitzva is on hold until the pope sells you an indulgence.
(Yeah, the time-line is a little fuzzy, but it’s the best I can do on 3 hourd sleep.)
