yesterday Press Secretary Scott McClellan said, ``We are moving on to the priorities of the American people. That is our focus.'' Well, Scott, here are the headlines my constituents care about: ``Ex-CIA Official Says Iraq Data Was Distorted; White House Knew of Levee Failure; Brown Faults White House and Agency for Poor Response; Doctors, Pharmacists Say Medicare Benefit Limits Drugs For Seniors; Government Will Forgo $7 Billion in Oil, Gas Royalties; Bush Budget Would Kill Popular Health Projects; Government Was Underpaid $345 Billion; American Bar Association Says Bush Exceeded Constitutional Powers in Surveillance Program; Washington Lobbyists Spent $1.6 Billion in First Half of 2005 Lobbying Congress; Photograph Shows Abramoff with Bush in May 2001; Iran Restarts Uranium Program.'' Scott, if you are listening, the American people are ready and waiting. As they say in the news industry, good night and good luck. ____________________
