Well that and both sides are too heavily invested in keeping the status quo going.

Do you really want the idiots you elected to try to fix more things they know nothing about?

Logically, it would be January 8th, or August 16th. The only question is whether you celebrate his birth or death.

The US might collapse, but it wont look much like the collapse of either of those too
(And they don't resemble each other)

I thought it was because instead of 800 billion in new taxes Obama wants 1.6 and sole power to have no debt limit and another 50 billion in stimulus to pay off his cronies who helped him get reelected while cutting nothing but the millitary and to keep borrpwing cash from China so we can keep giving cash to countries who hate us and not expecting it to be repaid

If they were serious about honoring Elvis, they would designate everyday Elvis Presley Day.

I honour the king everyday by having heart palpitations during my bowel movements.

Make it August 16th, and we can combine it with Robert Johnson's death day.

Since Elvis is everywhere, everyday would logically be Elvis Presley Day.

Celebrate the birthday not the death day.

Why not both, it will speed the development of the religion around his life.

Because literally every single member of Congress has to be in 24/7 365 meetings a week about a single contentious issue and they have literally nothing else to talk about, especially not a five minute bill that nobody will think about twice.

Congress is on track to be the most do nothing in history. Hey they named a lot of post offices. I wonder if their going to read the constitution again? That worked out great. I know, tax cuts for the rich! I bet nobody thought of that.
