Sen Levin and the other retiring chairmen might not get the customary chance for “legacy” legislation. “It is unfortunate that, with the makeup of the senate and especially the attitude of a number of the new senators, I do not believe that will be happening in this Congress,” Kaufman said.

(Cackle)......Dems plumb forgot their "legacy legislation"?

Signature healthcare---laughingly called Obamacare---passed by an historic lock-stepping straight party-line vote.

And now they don't even mention it. ROTFL.

"Those Democrats leering over my shoulder owe me bigtime. This
healthcare bill insures we have a permanent Democratic majority."

" All except those Tea Party types, swallowed hook, line and sinker my promises that they could:
(1) keep their existing health plans,
(2) keep their own doctors that they like,
(3) keep their 25-year-olds on the family health plan,
(4) never be denied coverage for a pre-existing condition,
(5) sign up instantly on my tech-savvy government Web site,
(6) buy insurance only after becoming seriously ill."
(7) save $2,500 in annual premiums in the bargain....
(8) All without any new taxes."

"Them sonovagun Tea Partiers will rue the day they criticized my wonderful bill."

I’m glad to see that Armed Services Chairman Carl Levin (KARL LENIN) is quiting.

If we don’t stop amnesty, none of this will matter.

... ,.....the new Old Bulls are women.

Let's call it like it is, they are the Old Cows. That would make female freshman democrat senators The Heifers.

“The bad news is that being chair is a very complex position, and because the Senate relies so much on precedent, institutional memory is very important. There will be a learning process.”

They are making laws, not running a company. The process is supposed to be different every time.

In any event, all the institutional memory a new Senator could ever want can be found in a good biography of Boss Tweed. :)
