Another Productive Week For Congressional Democrats

Posted by: Duane R. Patterson at 2:56 AM

Nancy Pelosi and the House Democrats wrapped up another busy three-day work week Thursday morning with a flurry of legislative action. She passed five bills naming post offices, created the official inaugural committee, and authorized the use of the Capitol Rotunda for the 2009 Inaugural. With that workload behind her, it was time to call it a week and break for four days until next Tuesday.

Of course the Democrats don't have time to consider working on the Patriot Act passed by the Senate. But they may be able to squeeze in a hearing on a baseball pplayer accused of (legally) using steroids. Who knew that ballplayers who used steroids are Republicans?
