Do they mean for lunch, for the day, or what?

Just seems a li'l crazy.

1. I just tuned in (because of your post) and it says adjourn "for the day" on the
screen.

It was a Dem who introduced it, I'm not familiar with him so I don't know if it's slick strategy or what. :shrug:

Guess it is a stall tactic of sorts.

Still seems crazy heh

3. Maybe their secretaries tweeted them to let them know they had a
brazillion phone messages, and many of them mentioned pitchforks and knives. I'm just guessing though...LOL...
