Stand Up and Cheer

Well, let's stand up and cheer. The One-hundred-and-Eleventh Congress is now in session. Oh, oh--but wait-- there is an absence of two of its new members, Roland Burris and Smokin' Al Franken. What happened senate democrats? Why are these two not being seated, yet? Did they not have the right credentials when they arrived or did they lose their hall passes. I believe Mr. Franken had been certified, although there still may be a court action to overturn that. You're not going to let a little something like a court action scare you away. I thought you guys thrived on that sort of thing.



How about Mr. Burris? Was he not appointed by one of your own, from your own party. Let's hear it for the Gov. with the cool hairdo, Mr. Blagojevich! He wasn't going to let a few little things like an arrest, a possible indictment or impeachment stop him from performing his rightful duties as the governor of that great state of Illinois. You know, that state that is one hell of a competitor for the most corrupt in this great nation. C'mon Mr. Reid. Where's the brass?

Where did this wave of intregity come from all of a sudden. Ok, maybe it wasn't all of sudden; but you were all doing so well up to now. Why are you making it so hard for yourselves. It's all right there for you. Can't be that you're scared of us Republicans. Why, you have us all on the run don't you. Didn't the nation speak and cast us out from governing in the majority. You now have an almost filibuster-proof Senate. Let's get going here. Show us what you can do.

Sure, I guess I can understand that you need to show some sort of propriety and question Mr. Burris to find out whether he may have promised Governor Blagojevich anything in return in order to fill that seat. Well, I do hope it'll be more than asking if he promised anything in return, ponders a few seconds, answers no, and then you all get together for a hug. Yes, make it a little more intensive and ask where the Gov. gets his hair styled. Maybe his wife cuts it for him. Don't want to make it too difficult for you. So we'll just leave it at that for right now.

Well, let me know how it all comes out. I may be too busy doing a few things here like watching the tumbleweeds blow by ( I live here in Texas). Sail on sweet miss.
