Ugh. My favorite part of politics. The smile-at-the-camera-and-kiss-some-babies part.

Eric: The logic must be "if George Bush likes him/her, they must be the spawn of Satan. So let's get our ducks in a row."

Mallory: I don't think anyone expected Congress to figure anything out with their hearings. I think it was a chance for them to get in front of the cameras and say "DRUGS ARE BAD MKAY!! DON'T DIRTY THE MINDS OF AMERICANS WITH YOUR DRUG USE MKAY!" That way, everyone will know they are drugs-bad-mkay and family values live on. Photo op.

Oh, that's right, I forgot; we left the War on Drugs behind to work on the even more ephemeral War on Terror. Silly me.

So is Raphael Palmiero a terrorist now? Nah, probably not, but maybe that fellow who gave him the were-they-really-steroids is. Let's get 'im!

The next nominee is questionable, even now that I know who she is.

Anyway. I'm not going to get into it on Brown, but I am going to say that I'm disgusted about the steroid hearings. Since when does Congress need to have a hearing about whether some musclebound jocks stick needles in their arms? If we're going to have Congress meet over needles-in-arms, let's get back to the "say no to drugs" campaign, shall we?

Judge Roberts got appointed today. If you want to be pissed about something in politics, be pissed that the Democrats are already threatening a filibuster WITHOUT EVEN KNOWING WHO THE NEXT NOMINEE IS.

That makes tons of sense.
