Did anyone else catch Face The Nation this morning? I caught it just as Bob Schieffer was doing his commentary, and he was giving the new Democratically-controlled Congress their props, specifically when it came to them passing the ethics reform legislation.

He was saying something along the lines of its been a long time since Congress really deserved some praise.


His comments are online as well at:

As I was watching him, I thought, this is what you call keeping faith with the American people. I'm a registered Indepedent (I left the Democratic party in January 2005, out of my fustration that only one Senator would sign on to the objection of the Ohio electors that John Conyers, et al raised). But I am really proud of the Democrats thus far. They went to the American people with an agenda and basically said if you give us back control of Congress, this is what we will do.

And they are making good on that promise. Well done!
