It'll be the same thing.

Yep. Just imagine this is after a president similar to Obama has left office.

Legions: Rise of Rome

Well right the hell on, edited my legions.

Legions: Rise of Rome

If I read the Senate update right, here is my new army, divided into two Legions. It said I get an extra thousand men, so I split them up among the two sub-legions.

How about we say all pending legislation needs Speaker approval to make it through to the floor. A bit more streamlined version of the House Rules Committee.

Just do that. Like I said earlier, we won't feature committees unless something happens that requires them to be featured. We'll just say bills that make it to the floor get out of committee.

Posted a presidential address with his first wish of the House. Follow his wishes, ignore it, or take the vague request and bastardize it as you so wish. The choice is yours.

"After much speculation since election night, the House of Representatives has its Speaker. Marcellus Kahnt, in his sixth term as the lone congressman from North Dakota, was elected Speaker of the House this morning with a vote that fell mostly along party line. Kahnt is seen as a compromise candidate among the different Republican factions. More of a Tea Party member in ideals, but pragmatic enough to get deals done. And of course the big question at hand is how a House led by Kahnt will work with President-Elect Norman and his campaign pledges that drastically conflict with most of the House Member's ideologies."

Inauguration Day
January 21st

"Our time is now, our goals are clear, and our purpose is true. The voters have put their trust in myself, Vice-President Reed, and Congress to guide this nation into days of even brighter prosperity. For all of us recently elected, we were not elected to be something but to do something. We cannot have our government slowed by legislative gridlock and partisan politics. We must all rise above that, this is why I am challenging Congress and my new administration to pass a tax reform bill within the first one hundred days of this new Congress. Tax reform was one of the major issues of my campaign, and I promised to make those that make the most in their country will give back their fair share. Together we will bridge the income inequality gap and restore the middle class."
