over the past 100 days, Mr. Gingrich has had his fun taking out his hole puncher and putting a few holes in his copy of the Contract With America. Well, I never saw what the big deal was. The way I see it, that contract was already full of holes. Remember the Republican tax plan or their balanced budget amendment? Right where you thought they would tell you how to pay for it, there was a big, gaping hole. And they had special kinds of holes for different people. If you are a working family, trying to raise your kids, there is a sinkhole for your wages to fall into, but if you are looking for a capital gains cut, there is a nice loophole for you. And you know those blackholes in outer space, those things that stuff gets sucked into and nothing comes out of? It turns out you do not need the Hubble telescope to see them. Because the Republicans' cuts in home heating assistance for the elderly and child nutrition for the country's babies are a blackhole that is going to pull people into poverty and pain where they will never be heard from again. So, Mr. Speaker, instead of getting a hole puncher, you should have used something to patch up the holes that were already in your contract from day one.
