Rachel that is probably the funniest piece of writing I've heard in YEARS.

And lord knows I am a Stuart fan.

Cuddle, on with a computer...

Still laughing.

1. But the link is serious curl up stuff
Ensign’s days as a member of elite Washington appear to be numbered, however.

With the FBI investigating, “it’s every man for himself,” a Republican operative said.

And finally, “No one perjures himself for John Ensign.”

4. I don't own any Ianything
and I enjoyed that article big time. What a mess.

Did you see this part:
As a senator he was known as a show horse, not a workhorse — neither knowledgeable nor interested in the gritty details of policy or politics.

A Nevada Republican on a trip East to lobby Ensign and Reid said the difference between the two was striking: Reid knew the issues, paid attention, and assigned staff who later followed up.

The Republican might have expected even better treatment from Ensign given they shared a party label. Not so.

Ensign was uninformed. “Two minutes in, Ensign is looking at his watch. Five minutes in, he’s gone. Staff says they’ll get back to me. Never did.”


Staff could hardly be blamed for dropping the ball — Ensign took pride in coming in under budget and giving office money back to the Senate, which meant he paid low salaries.
