I have been watching with some amusement the flurry of stories from the Associated Press telling us about all the wonderful things that Democrats are doing in the Congress.

Here is one about some Democrats who want Bush to ban trash shipments from Canada. Here is one about a bill a Democrat introduced. Here is one about a Democrat who put out a press release.

I looked on the AP site. There are no comparable stories about congressional Republicans, even though they have majorities in both houses and can, unlike the Democrats, actually pass bills.

It's as if no one bothered to tell the AP reporters that the Democrats don't run the show anymore. Like your mechanical voice in the airport, they just keep cranking out those "here's what's happening in Washington" stories entirely from the perspective of the Democratic Party. One wonders whether the AP reporters have even one Republican Senator or Representative in their Rolodexes.

And you'll never see those stories there, because Republicans don't ever do "wonderful" things in Congress, according to the AP. All Republicans do is "scheme", and "plot", and "hurl insults", and "cozy up to special interests", and "curtail our freedoms."

And why should they bother calling up Republican Representatives or Senators? Everything they need to know about them they can get from the Democrats.

"It's as if no one bothered to tell the AP reporters that the Democrats don't run the show anymore."

Reminds me of the reporter who voiced his distress after the 1994 elections gave the Congress to the GOP: "But I don't know any Republicans!"
