Congressional Republicans Flip-Flop on Fries
The House Cafeteria will once again serve french fries on its menu as well as french toast for breakfast, according to a recent article in the Washington Post. The architect behind this bold strategy is none other than Michigan's own Vernon J. Ehlers (R-3, Grand Rapids).
Most commentators argue that the change was because of the declining public support for President George W. Bush's desire to keep U.S. forces in Iraq throughout the foreseeable future. Quite frankly, though, I'm fairly confident that Ehlers knew the whole thing was nonsense from day one and, now that he is chairing the House Administration Committee, he's finally in a position to do something about it.
