The most poorly-revised Leninist LIE of all time is that the Contract was not delivered on. Anyone who chooses to READ it sees the lie.

But the Leninists know better than to READ it...

You gotta be kidding me....this is the contract:

FIRST, require all laws that apply to the rest of the country also apply equally to the Congress;
SECOND, select a major, independent auditing firm to conduct a comprehensive audit of Congress for waste, fraud or abuse;
THIRD, cut the number of House committees, and cut committee staff by one-third;
FOURTH, limit the terms of all committee chairs;
FIFTH, ban the casting of proxy votes in committee;
SIXTH, require committee meetings to be open to the public;
SEVENTH, require a three-fifths majority vote to pass a tax increase;
EIGHTH, guarantee an honest accounting of our Federal Budget by implementing zero base-line budgeting.

Which of these was delivered on? They tried number Four and Five, and dont' forget term limits for members.

And remember, they promised to pass all of these on the first date of being in control...
