We can barely keep child killers, terrorists, and other worthless trash in jail without adding others; especially if they are employed.

I wish this stupid bill would be removed already. Whoever thought it up was dropping acid.

Incorrect tense: "existed" not "exists". The bill died in the 110th Congress and has not been reintroduced in the 111th Congress. So the bill no longer exists.

This bill HR1955 was produced during the Bush years. (if those dates are correct) It looks like a dead bill!

Under a Democrat controlled Congress. Presidents, as anyone who has read the US Constitution knows, do not introduce legislation.

Who was in control of the House of Reps when that bill passed it? Why it was the fool and her clowns doing stupid things, wasn't it? The Senate saved us but Harry Reid could only threaten filibusters then. I wonder if that bill is forgotten since it was one of Nancy's babies.

Nasty Nancy and her boys must have thought it up since they passed it in 2007. It is not dead to her, now, either.

As long as Nasty Nancy is the head of the House, it is not dead. They passed it so it is never dead to them. What better way to shut up people like me?
