Youâre just trying to get under everyoneâs skin and drive a wedge between us.
Hey, Iâll admit it was half-baked, but I triedâŚ
Someone needs to knock that chip off your shoulder.
Donât crinkle your nose at me.
Also Saint Brendanâs Day.
Even in unanimity, the aircraft carrier of government takes a long time to execute a turn. I would guess that this will not go into effect until '22.
It sure as heck wasnât Samsonite.
Not so much a thread as a shoestring.
Not with self-executing laws. Those go into immediate effect when signed into law. If Congress intended to have this effective next year, theyâd have put that in the legislation, which they did not.
Around here, you could just rig up one of those âdrinking birdâ toys to keep pulling the lever.
And someone should have called for a roll-call. The RRRâs who declined to object should have been forced to either vote in the affirmative or go on record as opposing it for history, and the electorate, to judge them.
Given Black workersâ disproportionate numbers in the federal workforce, I think thereâs gonna be a lot of giving of shits about what itâs for.
Holidays benefit a lot more folks than just pubic sector. Many private companies follow with either time off, premium pay, or the like.
Then there are those addictive Middleswarth potato chips that family sends us from PA. (Oops, some drool on my keyboard.)
And Iâm guessing Corporate America will be all for it with âEnd of Slavery Specialsâ (plus an additional 10% off for AA). Maybe not, wouldnât be far to white shoppers (spontaneous orgasms over at Fox).
But yeah, Holidays are popular and Americans love to shop, barbeque and salute the flag. Doesnât matter which Holiday it is.
Nah, but I hear that the Insurrectionists are going to demand that we also make April 12th a holiday, Fort Sumter Day commemorating the first time a group of Patriots tried to take back their government from the clutches of the Socialists & Communists who had rejected the Fundamental American Concept of ownership of private property.
Could just offer them a combo deal, like presidentâs day, and give them the 19th so they can celebrate their heritage and their hero.
My counter-offer is a week-ish earlier, April 2nd (the evacuation of Richmond, or âJeff Davis Ran Awayâ Day).
Welp, there it is. Passed the House. Unless Sleepy Joe vetoes it, America just got a new Federal Holiday.
