The "Contract with America". I would love to see the
Democratic party purchase prime time on all the networks, not a 30 second commercial, but at least a half hour to review the so called "Contract with America" about three days before the 2006 elections.
First, go over what exactly constitutes a contract, then review just what a miserable failure that the republicans have been with their"stunt".Be sure to cover key states and just how deceptive it has all been.Go over Yellow-cake-gate and the murder of thousands of our military because of the war of choice,Hurricane Katrina, Delay whining for a republican judge,Frist insider investigation and the Abraham-Delay connection to most of the Republican congress and senate.
Then close by showing how Americans have a right to expect certain things, not the least of which is honesty and integrity which was supposed to be the basis of the so called "Contract with America".

4. If we don't hand it back to them, then I'm going to feel that
they got away with another lie.

6. Sorry, I meant if we let the scene of those smug bastards
on the front steps of the congress get away without us calling them on it, it will be just another lie that they got away with.Handing it back to them I meant calling them on it.I would like in the beginning to show those sanctimonious self righteous smug bastards telling us all what they were going to do to solve the world's problems.

10. If you sign a contract, being the writers of said contract, and then don't
follow through with the terms of the contract, doesn't that mean a breach of contract?

I'm sure that, if an individual does not follow through with a contract, then that person would be litigated to the removal of his or her glutteal regions, but the "corporations" get away with it.

Biggest breach of the "Contract with America" is their deficit reduction . . . they're in charge right now, and they're spending like it's going out of style.
