The Sweet Science: McCain Plows ahead after boxing bill falters -
Nonetheless, Senator McCain, who has always believed government is your friend; more government means more friends, looks ahead to embarking on an extremely aggressive legislative program when the 109th Congress convenes in January - enough to keep his staff and public relations consultants busy for quite some time.
The agenda includes:
* A bill requiring stricter testing of professional chess players for traces of caffeine.
* A resolution to rename the War in Iraq the "Budweiser War in Iraq".
* A Senate investigation into whether, in fact, Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone in the murder of Nicole Brown Simpson.
* A resolution to declare filmmaker Michael Moore "a really bad and fat human being".
* A bill requiring that Jackie Chan be licensed in any state in which he beats up someone in a kung fu movie.
And many more.
