A Bold New Plan to Secure the Homeland

[Rose Siding]

A New Seating Chart

Sens. Joseph Lieberman of Connecticut and Susan Collins of Maine are mixing it up at the Homeland Security and Government Affairs Committee.

For future hearings, Democrats and Republicans won’t sit on opposite sides of the dais but rather, next to each other — alternating Democrat, Republican, Democrat, Republican etc.

In a joint statement , Chairman Lieberman, an independent, and ranking Republican Collins, said “In the last election, the voters said they were sick of the partisanship that produces gridlock… So, as a start, instead of sitting on opposite sides of the room like a house divided, we want the American people to see us sitting side by side as our committee members work together make our nation more secure and our government more efficient.”

It's not like it's all about appearances or anything.

5. LMAO

they may as well..they are all one party..all support the same system..some just want to tweak it a little so that their certain supporters in that class can make a buck. The elections are never about us...they are bout who get more money next year-AT&T or Exxon.

6. Yep

We are dominated by psychopath tapeworms.

7. Uh, Joe? We said we were sick of REPUBLICANS in the last election.

THEIR partisan shutting out of Congressional Democrats is what handed them their asses. Changing the seating won't accomplish anything unless Republicans also develop a new attitude.

8. Awwww

Now don't you feel so much better, just knowing they are sitting side by side? The country's problems will now end and all it took was them sitting side by side.

Just imagine if they had an orgy....
