---Grassley is trying to get himself righteously worked up over the IRS thing, but his heart doesn’t seem to be in it. He’s reading from his notes as if for the first time. Yawn.
---Chairman Baucus is being a hard-ass on senatorial question time, and Kerry doesn’t like it. Neither do I. Big John is as windy as ever, but his "good bank/bad bank" line of inqiry is right on point and deserves a long answer. (God forbid any distinguished senator be shorted his full five minutes to spew nonsense.)
–-Surprise, surprise. Hatch wants to cut corporate taxes again. Groundhog Day in the Republican caucus.
–-Bunning is an idiot. No wonder he runs around the Senate in his pajamas–no, wait--that’s Domenici. (Maybe they’re the same person?)
---Snowe seems out of place here. Succinct, intelligent questions. Who let her in?
–-Ensign: Stimulus? We don't need no stinking stimulus. And tax increases caused the 1937 mini-depression. GOP Groundhog Day continues.
–-Bunning again. He hasn’t gotten any smarter in the last ninety minutes.
–-Kyl is asking the same question about the stimulus plan that Ensign asked. Same answer. (The Republicans seem to think this recession is going to be over by December. Trillion dollar stimulus–bad! Trillion dollar wars–good!)
I've seen enough.
