What you expect congress to work?

Stolen in it's entirety from Josh Marshall:

So many instances where it's hard to distinguish the real news from the stuff that shows up in The Onion. From the Post, new Congress to shelve old two day work week for a five day work week. No, not makin' this up.

Rep. Jack Kingston (R-GA) -- one of the worst from the old GOP Congress -- on why working for a living is against family values: "Keeping us up here eats away at families. Marriages suffer. The Democrats could care less about families -- that's what this says."


Not to state the obvious, but this is pretty stupid coming from a man who sent over 100,000 Americans away from their families....halfway around the world....years on end...at a fraction of his salary. I guess it's different when it's his family. At least he still gets weekends off.

Someone should inform Kingston that this is a weekly Congressional stoploss program.
