Proposition 3-17
Make St. Patrick's Day an official holiday!
Come on- you know you want St. Pat's to be a holiday! I like the "Reasons I signed" particularly "I signed because saying 'kiss me I'm Irish' is the only line I've got going for me." Classic! |
Ideally, I would love 3/18 as a holiday. Then people could nurse their hangovers and lick their wounds at home! :D

It already *is* a holiday - in Suffolk County (which is where Boston, Massachusetts is). Only it's called Evacuation Day, celebrating the evacuation of the British from the City of Boston on March 17, 1776. George Washington watched from Dorchester Heights as the British left the city by sea.

But neither did the framers (as a group) of the original Constitution who specifically rejected including a bill of rights. Those first ten amendments, including the rights mentioned above came later. That's often misunderstood by among the brightest. See this link: http://www.billofrights.com/ |

I posted the picture, so I know exactly who it is and what it represents.
That said... In 2004, I posted that pictures somewhere else with this caption: George W. and John Kerry. |
