A fable some MyLot users might appreciate

I'm not in the habit of posting emails I get, but this one really stuck out in my mind, and I think it's a brilliant analogy of what's going on. I figured some of you might appreciate it, so I feel...

A Congressional*facepalm* moment.

I thought this was rather funny. Regardless of whether or not you agree with the man, does it not seem pathetically hilarious that he would pull such a childish stunt on the House floor? Here's...
