Beautiful! Thanks for the chuckle- I needed that.
I do disagree however on your assesment of congress. They sure whittled down GW's tax cut.

I have several people a day come into my place asking for work! I have offered to hire several of them - you should see the shock go across their face when that happens - they don't want a job but have to apply to keep their dole coming.

This is soooo true! I hired a guy once and told him he could start right away. He said "Great. Just let me go get my work shoes from my car" and never came back! I haved tried to hire many people who were on Gov't Assistance who've simply turned down the job I've offered them.

The simple answer is it doesn't. Your vote counts as one vote in your state. Your state then sends it's delegates to Washington for the final tally. The states were given their delegates by Congress based on the 2000 Census. If you think you've been given a raw deal- write your congressman.
