Speaker. good morning students. I want you to take out your civics books and turn to the chapter that discusses democracythe notion that the consent of the governed. majority rule. and one man. one vote is the way our system works. and tear those pages out of your books. Then I want you to paste in your books an article from this mornings Washington Post relating how the Democratic leadership has "effectively buried legislation designed to limit illegal immigration." You see. the notion that majority rule has anything to do with the legislative process is absolutely wrongno matter that this legislation has passed the other body overwhelmingly and has been reported out of at least four House committees. If the Speaker does not want the bill to be debated or voted on. it is dead. Now everyone should silently apologize to George IIIand that is your civics lesson for today.
