[Political Junkie Too]

On everything. Check out editorial from the WSJ:

Conveniently, any organizing delay allows Democrats to continue as committee chairmen, slowing the Republican start. Joe Lieberman, who is supposed to be the former chairman of Governmental Affairs, sent out a notice saying that he'd preside over this week's confirmation hearing for Tom Ridge, nominated to run the new Homeland Security Department.

This would mean a nice photo-op for the soon-to-be Presidential candidate, but it's an insult to Maine Republican Susan Collins, who should be running the committee. The White House pulled Mr. Ridge at the last minute to deny Mr. Lieberman his chance to knock the Administration around, but this only delays Mr. Ridge's ability to get on with the job.

The rest of the editorial is worth reading.

Let them... while this going on no budget will be voted on... leaving spending at previous years' level.

Susan Collins & Olympia Snow these RINO's from Maine can't be insulted ... in fact they are probably considered strong candidates by the democ"RATS" to pull a "Jumpin" Jim Jeffords.

My senator, Reid-NV, stood in the Senate and lied. Stating that the delay was due to the Republican's getting a late start because of the Lott issue.

By the start of the Senate, all those issues had been settled, as far as leadership goes. These senators need a good spanking.
