To anyone who might notice, I apologize for the lack of content (such as it has been) of late. I started this site at the worst (i.e., busiest) possible time (excluding, I suppose, that bender in graduate school) due to requirements at work. I intend to return. Or retire young, so I can blog more.
At least, I've kept any readers' expectations low.
Query: Would you trade members of the Senate minority leadership with, say, random members of your local White Pages?

Posted by: CGHill at 04:17 PMWe are not that lucky, or deserving. Changing out members of Congress with members of the citizenry at random could only result in an improvement in our representation. Allow me to paraphrase Frankenstein's monster: "People, good! Politicians, bad!"

Don't worry about the light posting. It happens. It's called life.
Posted by: page at 04:17 PMThird attempt at responding follows (Enetation seems to be suffering of late -- "copy" before you click!). I wish I'd saved my earlier, clever responses...
To all, I obviously concur. I was watching the current Senate minority (for good reason) leadership prepare to filibuster the Estrada nomination. Yikes, these guys are stupid.
And Page, what's this "life" thing to which you refer? Care to elaborate? I suspect I've been missing something yet again.
