BOWING TO BUSH'S BARGAINER (Whisper)
In what's likely to be his final bargain score before leaving, President Bush's budget chief Mitch Daniels has convinced Office Depot--and, soon, Microsoft--to give Uncle Sam bulk-rate discounts on the millions of dollars of goods the government buys each year. Office Depot just inked a cost-cutting deal, and negotiations with Microsoft are about done. Officials applaud Office Depot's move, which should save taxpayers over $3 million a year. The Microsoft savings will dwarf that.
Millions saved are millions earned.

SICK OF TAXES (Whisper)
Rookie California Rep. Linda Sanchez had an unusual reaction to the Bush tax cut--she tossed her cookies. As the House voted early last Friday, Sanchez, described by observers as tipsy, rushed off the House floor to a balcony and threw up as a doorman held her.
The (frat) House of Representatives?

BROTHERLY LOVE (Historical Whispers)
>From the issue of May 27, 1963:
