I'm Just Wild About Harry

I heartily give kudos to Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid for invoking Rule 21 and forcing a "secret session" of the Senate yesterday. No surprise.

What the events of yesterday demonstrated(yet again) is that Democrats are leaders. The Republicans, naturally, proved that they are born whiners and complainers.

Maybe that secret session won't really change anything, but it was sure as fun as hell, wasn't it?
