if you are one of the 2 people that still think that congress has any connection to reality, or at least to those of us who actually work for a living, we present the following piece of legislation, introduced by republican senator john shimkus of il:
"H. Res. 970 - In the House of Representatives, U. S., June 26, 2008. Whereas the Chevrolet Corvette is America’s first sports car; Whereas the first production Corvette rolled off a Flint, Michigan, assembly line on June 30, 1953; Whereas the Corvette is now manufactured in Bowling Green, Kentucky; Whereas the Corvette is the most widely respected production sports car in United States history; Whereas the Corvette is truly a symbol of American pride; Whereas General Motors is celebrating its 100th anniversary in 2008; and Whereas the 30th of June would be an appropriate day to designate as `National Corvette Day’: Now, therefore, be it Resolved, That the United States House of Representatives supports the designation of a `National Corvette Day’ to honor the Chevrolet Corvette."
