I know they will take at least a week off for Memorial DAY, at the end of this month.
They will take at least a week of for Independence DAY, in July..
They will take August off for Summer RECESS.
They will also take a week off for Labor DAY.
Cheny goes over and says, don't take the summer off to the Iraqi Parliament, while the Congress will recess for August and take off most of July
I think that every Congressman should have to go to Iraq for July and August, right AFTER independence day.
Do them all a world of good, doing joint tasking with the Iraqi parliament.
They would come back with a great deal of bi-partisan motivation.
