Congress to recreate the "America the Beautiful" moment today.
Article read on Washington Journal. Congress is going to get together and sing again. Why the hell would any Dem partiicipate in that type of charade? The Congress is not united. The poeple are not united. What is this? Campaign footage material for those who weren't in congress in 2001?

2. If I wanted a choir, I would invite the Mormon Tabernacle Choir to DC
At least the can actually sing. I want these fools to legislate. On the second thought, perhaps we need this lame duck republiclown Congress to waste as much time as they can. See ya 109th, not gonna miss ya. Worst Congress in history? 97 working days, very possibly...

4. It won't work this time.
It was spontaneous last time. I saw it again on C-Span 3 last night. Congress is too divided now to recreate that moment.

11. Oh, fer feck's sake!
I always thought that was Congress' single most embarrassing, demeaning moment -- just shameless pandering.

And they are going to do it again?
