Staffers? Staffers are crafting one of the most historic bills ever?
Where
the hell is Congress?

Do you think that if we had just the elected officals working, without

Not at all. But with Wall Street and the credit markets in a meltdown,
going home isn't really the proper thing to do.

What if your house were burning down, and the fire dept said, We're going
on vacation, here, have a bunch of Boy Scouts...?


I'll bet if it was Christmas, you'd say "Well duh, of course, it's
Christmas. They'll take care of things after the holiday."
