1. I think they need to pass a bill about the inappropriate wearing of road kill on senator's heads

I mean, really. Give that poor creature a proper burial.

3. Wasn't this all for show anyway?

If it had passed, no way they could over-ride a veto.

4. Anyone have the roll call vote?

51 to 48 with a Republican as one of the 51? Which effing Dems voted for this, and I don't give a sh*t if it was symbolic.

5. Olympia Snow voted against, & 3 Democrats voted for it!!!!! (See inside)

Only one Republican Senator, Olympia Snowe of Maine voted against the measure. Three Democratic senators supported it, Robert Casey (Pa.), Joe Manchin (W.V.), and Ben Nelson (Neb.).
