Do-nothing Daschle leads do-nothing Dem Senate noware!
recd via wap1102@ix.netcom.com
From: Ken Connor, President
Date: September 19, 2002 - Thursday
Who Put the 'Dash' in Daschle?
Is the Senate still on recess? That's the question House
leaders are asking while 30 of their major pieces of
legislation continue to sit dormant on Senator Daschle's
desk. House Majority Leader Dick Armey issued a statement,
saying, "Tom Daschle has no agenda, no budget, no bills.
...[His] desperation is becoming more obvious as the
election draws closer." Time's running out, and if Senator
Daschle doesn't start taking his responsibilities
seriously, then come November, he might not have the
chance.
