from the same thread in Sept.--

Many years ago, there was a bill in Congress to allow the addition of horse meat to some human foods...the late Senator Everett Dirkson, he of the greatest gravelly voice in recorded history, got up on the floor of the Senate, and sang

"The old grey mare, she ain't what she used to be "Out of the stable now, onto the table now.. "The old grey mare, she ain't what she used to be, "A Blue Plate Platter soon!"

the bill was defeated.....
