Stuff People Will Never Know

At John Roberts confirmation hearing today, there was an odd scene. Cameras caught Sen. Tom Coburn (R-Okla.) working on a crossword puzzle during the day. But when it came his turn to speak, he became emotional and "seconds after asserting that 'a super-legislator body is not what the court was intended to be,' " he paused and wept." Those are the politicians that drive me insane. And need to be voted out of office. There will come a day when honesty and candor is all that voting public cares about. (By the way, I found this picture on his official web site. Sheesh.)
