1. Thank goodness the Republicans made Brown leave his grief
Heaven forbid they could have made arrangements to not have him fly back from his mother's wake like a maniac.

5. For one of them to have done the right thing and cast an "aye" vote
would have turned the wrath of Rush on them.

None of them can withstand his whithering blather..

2. Holy cow, the senate is still in session
I think that Durbin (as chair) and Reid are the only ones in the Senate

6. I believe they are about to adjourn the Senate for a week
They haven't been able to do that for a while to prevent * appointments.

8. What a relief! The senate can relax, and we all can about the supreme court, too.
Honestly, I've forgotten how I used to try to keep an eye on things, knowing the president was trying to undermine us all. Now, Barack and his cabinet are on the job, and I trust them, and I can go about my own life.

I'm retiring from my congressional oversight duty!

Happy Valentine's Day, everyone.
