Rs and Ds beating the crap out of Boner for not allowing the vote on Sandy relief. Haven't seen my rep (Bishop, NY1) up there yet, but I hope he shows.

Pelosi's up now, and she is just perfect.

His district, including a large part of the south shore of Long Island, took one of the worst bashings from Sandy and needs the help.

Whoa! The House just adjourned, to rather loud protests.
