Kit Bond Falls Asleep During Intelligence Briefing (on terrorism)
Seems everyone is asleep at the wheel these days. Oh well, these are troubled and tiring times, after all. We could all use a good nap.

Take Ken Griffey Jr., for one. The Seattle Mariner's celebrated DH dozed off in the seventh inning the other night and was unavailable as a pinch hitter. Just couldn't get his sleepy head in the game.

Earlier this week, Sen. Kit Bond also chose a rather inpportune time to nod off. His little siesta came during an intelligence briefing. On terrorism, no less.

1. Kit Bond -- napping -- during an intelligence briefing -- somehow, it all makes sense.

2. The longer Senator Bond remains asleep I think the better off we'll all be.

4. Let him sleep
The less he's awake, the less damage he can do to the security of the country.

5. This is one case where I would have to take
the Senator's side. I have seen Congressional hearings on C-Span, how the hell could anyone stay awake through them? Every damn Senator has to make a 10 minute speech before even asking a question.
Then the person being questioned avoids answering anything.

7. What a buffoon
Though I don't see what difference it makes - Republicans already know everything they need to know - namely NO!
