Senate's Summer Off

Apparently the Senate is discussing actually working.

Under Bill Frist, this Senate has sat less days than any group in recent history. Practically the only thing they've accomplished is rancor and extreme partisanship, besides whatever Bush ordered them to do (we don't have three different branches of government now, we have one named Karl Rove). Well, that and Cheney's cheer (like saying "Go fuck yourself" to Pat Leahy).

So now they're discussing whether it looks bad that the 9-11 report came out and they're off for the summer so they can't even pretend to seem like they're doing more for national security than making certain their friends get cushy contracts.
