Bill Clinton is out of office regardless of the legislation he signs or
doesn't -- short of making himself king.  Uproar from folks who can't afford
a new car did nothing to stop unleaded or oxygenated gas.  Besides folks that
can't afford new cars don't make campaign contributions and very few people
actually bother voting.


If we choose to keep our wasserboxers (they can have mine when they pry it
from my cold, dead fingers) we may be in for some forced creativity.
