Oh, tonight there is an all night session. But look. Only like five people are there.

And let's have more hearings on stuff. Face time is good time!

(Just make sure you don't do anything)

Hillary and Obama look kind of uncomfortable next to each other.

They changed during the quorum call. They are now speaking, but they just marched in every once in awhile to say whether they were there or not.

I mean, do you have to walk in and say, 'I'm not here'? I don't get it sometimes.

Noteables I saw were Clinton, and Obama, and that blonde lady from Louisana. They also asked if Johnson (SD) was there. He's still in the hospital. :? Also saw Frist waling around. And Snowe (sp) from Maine?

Nah, I almost feel like discussing politics right now(ie I hate everything right now so why not?).

We have three branches of government...we should have three political parties, if we ever want really "Fair and balanced".

Or maybe it'll just seem more balanced because instead of one group hating and insulting the other, it'll be group A hating and insulting group B, while group B insults group C. Enough hatred and anger for everyone, but not too much for any particular one. Utopia!!

Seriously, there is a freakish validity to that. I wonder if the one in the middle wouldn't be the brunt of both attacks though.

I think it's kinda funny that congress has a lower approval rating than the president right now.
