Maybe Congress should just adjourn for the rest of the year
And now for some good news. Congress Is Stalled on New Terror Laws according to the Los Angeles Times.
It now looks like both the laws to set up a framework for military tribunals and for the NSA warrantless spying, are going to have to wait till Congress comes back from its undeservedly long holiday (Aug 7 - Sep 4).
I predict some grandstanding with the anniversary of Sep 11 as background, when they come back. Also, that they will be in a hurry to enact something which gives Bush a total pass on both fronts. After all, come November, the God's Own Party may not be in the majority.
