I want to go south, where there is no • autumn, where the cold doesn't crouch over one like a snowleopard waiting to pounce.'- D.H. Lawrence, English author ( 1885-1930). . PageJ\4 I' Wednesday, September 22, 10 years later· The Newt (;ingrich revolution Ten years ago this month, Newt Gingrich transformed the landscape of American politics. · The defining moment occurred when he gathered his fellow House Republicans on the Capitol stairs, along with GOP House candidates from around , the country. Together. the unveiled their 'Contract with America.' It wa~ a revolutionary document. It promised the American people that if they elected a Republican majority . to the House of Repre_sentatives, the party of Gingrich would bring a host of congressional refom1s and legislative initiatives to floor votes within its tirst I 00 days in power. · Democrats; who iri I 994 controlled ·the White House and both houses of Congress, were smug. They simply could not imagine that the Gingrich Republicans might· .somehow end 40 years of Democrat rule in the lower chamber. the They dismissed 'Contract with America.', ' It's I all slogans and hot buttons,' scoffed House Majority Leader 9ick Gephardt. '.It's really a contract on America,' Bill sneered President Clinton. The American people did hot share Gephardt's contempt for the 'Contract with America;' did not accept Clinton's mockery of the House GOP's proposed legislative agenda. Indeed, the vast majority of Americans agreed with the CTTk @u:X,'I- Joseph Perkins · ----· three congressional reforms the Gingrich Republicans proposed:· That Congress abide by the labor, health and safety and civil rights Jaws that applied to the non-elected; that a third of congressional committee stafr positions be eliminated; and that all congressional' accounts, including· the scandalized House Post Office, be privately audited. The House GOP's I 0-point legislative platform . 'also enjoyed substantial public support. Its planks included, among others, tiscal reform (notably a balanced budget and a lineitem veto), ail anti-crime package and welfare reform. It also included aid to seniors and tax relief for small businesses and families. Six weeks after Gingrich and his fellow Republicans unveiled their 'Contract with America.' the voters gave them a nationwide landslide . The GOP posted electoral gains in the 1994 midterm. election of historic proportions. Indeed, when the last ballot had beef\ counted, Republicans f'Of!.1" lvOIZ.'!'K 2004 not only had regained the majority in the Senate (which they'd su1rendered a decade earlier), they also had wrested control of the House for the first time in four decades. And in tribute.to Gingrich's visi•;m. in gratitude to the _Georgia Jawmakerfor leading them out of the political wilderness - after 40 long years of minority status House Republicans ·awarded the former backbencher the speaker's gavel. The Gingrich Republicans did not rest on their historic triumph at the · polls. In fact, their first I 00 days in power were the most productive since the New Deal era. As promised, House Republicans brought each and every plank in the 'Contract with America' to a floor · vote. And although ·Gingrich never promised that each and every ·plank would be approved by the full House, he did win passage of nine of 10 planks (term limits being the exception). And despite unrelenting attacks on the contract by the Clinton White House, -by the bitter out-of-power Democrats in Congress, the public liked what Gingrich and his fellow Republicans accomplished. Because they returned a GOP majority to the House in 1996, the first time that had happened in 60 years. And while Clinton was loath " to give the Gingrich Republicans ~ny credit, they are re sponsible fpr the Qiggest achievements of his presidency. · For they forced him to . accede to the balanced budget (which he had · previously vetoed). They compelled him to acquiesce to welfare reform (which he previously rejected). in selecting Indeed, Gingrich its 1995 .' Man of the Year,' lime magazine wrote, 'Not so long ago, the idea of a balanced budget was a marginal, we'll-get-to-it someday priority. Today, because of Newt Gingrich, the questian , is not whether a balancedbudget plan will come to pass, but when.' And in 1996, Time columnist Margaret Carlson appeared on CNN lamenting that 'the welfare bill,' cobbled together by Gingrich and his fellow Republicans, was 'a terrible bill.' And that 'the only reason that Clinton would sign it is that Republicans are pushing him into a comer. ' Gingrich retired fr.om Congress in 1998 but his legacy endures. For I0 years, after he gathered his fellow Republir.ta on the .Capitol stairs, I ar~ after he introduced , the revolutionary 'Cmitract with America,' Republicans continue to control both houses of Congress.

Otlters believe the Fed might take a pass in· November, but raise rates in December. Sung Won Sohn, chief economist at Wells Fargo, says the Fed's rate-raistng campaign has two stages.

The second stage, he said, is for the funds rate to climb to around 4 percent by the end of 2005. The pace of those rate · ·increases will depend on the economic data at the time.

Stringer, a 335-pound Pro Bowl lineman whose body temperature was measured at I08.8 degrees after he practiced in the sweltering heat and humidity, died of heatstroke early the next morning.

EIAC.nl I .t In One Week With Us REACH OVER 285,000 PROSPECTS PLUS YOUR AD NOW ONLINE Cowher to Steelers: Don't worry about new QB, worry about your own play ALAN ROBINSON Associated Press PITTSBURGH - 'Coach Bill Cowher's message for any Pittsburgh Steelers player fretting that rookie Ben Roethli sberger now is the starting quarterback~ Don't worry about him, worry about yourself. The Steelers' play during . their 30-13 loss Sunday in Baltimore was so deficient that the unexpected ly swift move from injured starter to Tommy Maddox Roethlisberger isn't atop Cowher's long list of con· cerns. "I think it is not so much what we are doing with Ben, it is that everyone around him right now has to make sure that (hey hold up their end of the bargain." Cowher' suid Tuesday. "I think Ben will be fine. No one has to do anything speCial. Right now. everybody has to pickup their game." • Maddox won't throw for approximately six weeks because of ligament and tendon tears in his right elbow, though that is only an approximate timetable and he is soliciting a second opiniOf, from an elbow ·specialist. Once Maddox is cleared to throw. the Steelers will determine when he can play again. Cowher isn't specu lating whether Roethlisberger might hold the job after Maddox returns - or, conversely, what he will do if the firstrounder sho:-vs he isn.'t ready for the job yet. "The more you are around the kid, the more you realize he has a good demeanor about him, and a good presence about him," Cowher said. "He is not overwhelmed by it. He understands the responsibility that comes with that. I think he is more looking forward to it than he is worried about it. That is what you like about him." Cowher's more pressing worries before Sunday's game at Miami (0-2) include getting a running game going to support Roethlisberger and eliminating the defensive mistakes that allowed Baltimore to drive 89 yards on its opening possession.. The quick score set a tempo the Steelers (1-1) never matched, even after Roethlisberger replaced Maddox. early - in the second- defense to oppose in his first half to throw 'two touchdown NFL start; !he Dolphins are passes - or two more than winless, but their defense has Maddox has thrown for in six allowed only one touchdown quarters. and an average of 226.5 yards - The Steelers won 't down- per game.
