(article quote): "Eisenhower Memorial Commission chairman Rocco Siciliano says in a statement that he's "saddened" by the bill and calls it an insult to Eisenhower's legacy." ---- Uh, Eisenhower has probably the largest memorial to his name. It is called the interstate highway system which he started. So, everytime this memorial commission guy drives on an interstate highway, he can be thankful for Eisenhower in that way. There is even a very heavily used tunnel, bored straight through a mountain to cross the Continental Divide, in Colorado named after him!
