[Miss Marple]

Good morning! I am sorry I disappeared yesterday. I got involved in the live thread that started with the Congressional Black Caucus, then the House vote on Speaker, then the President's speech, then the dustup in the Senate.

I also went to see my mother yesterday afternoon.

I see everyone was quite busy here yesterday. I just sent a private note to Guennie, and I hope she comes back soon.

I am most gratified that the judges, including Pickering and Owens, are being resubmitted. Yet another thing happening that the gloom and doom types told us would never happen. Ha!

I am fascinated with Frist's leadership style, which I think we will see has the Rats running in circles pretty quickly. Warms the cockles of my heart, it does! HA!

I sort of disappeared yesterday, too. GAO was in the building, and we had a meeting with them for two hours yesterday afternoon. Of course, that meant most of the morning and early afternoon was prep time.

So how was that SEPARATE BC swearing-in????

Dr. Frist commands respect from everyone, and that is a good start. I think the left will have a hard time demonizing him. If they do, it will backfire.

I agree! I think Sen Frist is going to be underestimated by the RATs just like they underestimate the President.

This could be real fun to watch!!
