****Attention All Marylanders**** Paul Sarbannes is still alive.

[NautiNurse]

They render each other unconscious by 11 AM

and us too.

[prairiebreeze]

Oh good! Another RAT holding up a recently published book! Shades of Dickie Clark here.

It's a book about Europe. Oh good. Now we'll hear about how bad we are and treat Europe so bad and they are going to band together and rise up against us economically.

Showing charts now.

Kerry is there!!!!!

[Bahbah]

Paul Sarbannes is still alive.

I don't think so, Kev. Not based on what I'm hearing, at least. OMG, he has charts.

[WestVirginiaRebel]

Oh, visual aids.

[cyncooper]

Sarbanes is referencing some book that was highlighted in the NY Times recently. I missed the title.

He hoists a huge chart eliciting chuckles throughout the room...Dodd to the rescue in the hoisting effort.

Chart on trade deficit.

[NautiNurse]

I haven't seen Sarbannes or heard his dulcet tones much lately

Caffeine emergency.

Is that graph upside down?

[gopwinsin04]

Sarbanes now doing current book reviews. Holds up a huge poster board with the trade defifcit on it..

[Trueblackman]

Where is a mirror when you need it.

[jern]

why was boxer sitting next to Condi?

[Carolinamom]

LOL.......but Senator Kerry's body is missing in action, and it's Bush's fault. LOL

[kingattax]

i just saw F'n kerry......Terayza must have kicked him outta the house.

[Peach]

Yippee about Kerry! Gigolo man will be a scream to watch...hope you get to see him before you leave for the inaugural.

[prairiebreeze]

Sarbanes is going to run out his question time with his pontificating.

[cyncooper]

Oh, thanks to your post I took a look. When covering hearings I tend to listen more than look. Yup, he's therrrrrrrrrre.

[WestVirginiaRebel]

"The United States Of Europe" I think the title was. Yeah, in their dreams.

[gopwinsin04]

'The United States of Europe,' I think which makes the case that the Euro will enable them to become a co-superpower..

[Johnnyboy2000]

Paul Sarbanes is my Senator. Don't everyone thank me at once.

[prairiebreeze]

Now that sKerry has shown up, what I just said about Senators rendering each other comatose, goes double.

[Carolinamom]

According to that chart, the national deficit is DOWN! LOL
