Way to go there, ABC news. <blockquote>...but if the lady who promised “the most ethical Congress in history” gets her way, they will. </blockquote> Xrlq, did she really say that? Wow, Clinton said almost exactly that during his first 100 days. So is she gonna resign her own leadership position over the funny-business campaign finances in her own past? After all, it was an extra-heapin'-helpin' of hypocrisy when she was bashing Tom DeLay.

I’d consider changing the last vowel and dropping the apostrophe…

The man is a throwback to the old days, and the Democrats need to move into the 21st Century. I’m equally dismayed that Robert Byrd is given anything other than a retirement party.

Sure, we have our stupid elements, your update being a prime example, but have the Republicans ever done anything as insanely dumb as to nominate an impeached, bribed jex-udge as chair of the House Intelligence Committe or a guy who refused a bribe but made it clear he'd accept it under the less transparent circumstances as their Majority Leader? Hastings and Murtha haven't gotten those positions yet, but if the lady who promised "the most ethical Congress in history" gets her way, they will.
