Bye, Bye, Stephens Bill

Bye, Bye, Bad Bill . . .

I guess we all had our moments when

  • we didn’t know there was a problem

  • we realized that we had to do something, anything
  • we made what noise that we could.
  • we didn’t know whether anyone would listen
  • we figured this Congress would let it sit.

Here’s what happened . . .
