Afterhours Congress
Cspan 1 - kinda entertaining and pathestic...mostly Democrats
with the only time they can present their rants or arguments.
You have to kinda feel sorry for the hired men and women
staying late to make it look kinda official...but we know
that the budget may be passed after hours with all sorts of
pork. At least they get a tape to show their constituents.

I know most are trying...like with good faith to get funds for
housing and renovation in Louisiana, Katrina raped areas etc. But
Americans have a short attention span...we've given and we are moving on
to more current and talked about catastrophe.
