    Orrin, sit down and shut up.

    For any congressman to chide another about "trying to score political points" is hypocritical in the extreme. I can't watch hearings without breaking out in a rash as I see the esteemed gentleman from both sides of the aisle posture and prance for the cameras and congressional record.

    Of course censure is a political statement...and about damn time someone made it. Thanks, Russ, wish I could vote for you.
