The Fantastic Two
Also unofficial and unsponsored by the Unicameral Youth Conference, the Fantastic Two consisted of Sen. Pena and Sen. Schoeneberger. The vague filibuster threat against all the other bills was given by the Fantastic Two, and though the threat was not to be taken seriously, it apparently created a panic in Group Thirteen, much to the amusement of the Fantastic Two. It was Sen. Pena and Sen. Schoeneberger who proposed the many amendments to LB 4, and while they dispersed after said bill, Sen. Pena went on to propose multiple amendments to LB 6.

Famous quotes containing the word fantastic:
“I have often told you that I am that little fish who swims about under a shark and, I believe, lives indelicately on its offal. Anyway, that is the way I am. Life moves over me in a vast black shadow and I swallow whatever it drops with relish, having learned in a very hard school that one cannot be both a parasite and enjoy self-nourishment without moving in worlds too fantastic for even my disordered imagination to people with meaning.”
—Zelda Fitzgerald (1900–1948)
