Before the tryptophan and sugar buzz wears off completely is a good time to look back on what the 110th Congress did for us in 2007.
Our representatives passed 155 bills that the president signed into public laws; 64 of those statutes authorize … the renaming of public facilities. Exercising its version of due diligence, Congress not only gave us the Gerald R. Ford post office in Vail, Colo., but the Scipio A. Jones post office, the Lane Evans post office, the Lino Perez Jr. post office, the Miguel Angel Garcia Mendez post office, the Leonard W. Herman post office, the Frank G. Lumpkin Jr. post office, the Santiago E. Campos courthouse, the Clifford Davis and Odell Horton federal building, the Robert T. Stafford White Rocks National Recreation Area, and the Oscar G. Johnson Department of Veteran Affairs Medical Center, among dozens of others.
