It may be descriptive but it’s true.” But it’s no longer going to be true, noted Reid, thanks to the air conditioned, indoor space. The “space” referred to is the new Capitol Visitors Center, paid for by those same sweaty, reeking tourists. I know we have Hill staffers among our readers; tell the truth, is it really this bad?

Do you still want the US Government to be in charge of Health Care for the Country? How about running our education system? Fixing the supposed Global Warming problem? They can’t even build ONE building on time or at projected cost. But it was all worth it according to Senate Majority Leader Harry “Pinky” Reid, who is happy now that he doesn’t have to smell those stinky tourists any more:“My staff tells me not to say this, but I’m going ...

The Senate Majority Leader says that voters smell . Well, sure -- H.L. Mencken referred to the average folk as the "Great Unwashed" for a reason -- but somehow our Senators and Representatives managed to get through the last 208 Washington summers without a $651 million air-conditioned "visitors center" to redirect all that body odor. Apparently our legislators have more sensitive noses than they did in days of yore. There is, of course, a silver lining. As everybody knows, air conditioning a big space takes a lot of energy. I am absolutely thrilled to learn that no amount of ...

He has said that fossil fuels like coal make us sick. Never mind that life expectancy, largely, uh, fueled by industrialization and its accompanying higher living standards, continues to climb.
In each case, the consequences to his political career have apparently been minimal.
Now he's said that visitors to the Capitol -- everyday American citizens like you and me -- stink, and that he's glad to get away from you.
