PICTURE WORTH A TRILLION DOLLARS
House Minority Leader pictured standing, far right, speaks while colleagues play solitaire Monday night as the House convened to vote on a new budget.
(AP) The guy sitting in the row in front of these two….he’s on Facebook, and the guy behind Hennessy is checking out the baseball scores.
These are the folks that couldn’t get the budget out by Oct. 1, AND are about to control your health care, cap and trade, and the list goes on and on.

This is one of their 3-DAY WORK WEEKS that we all pay for

Ouch…
The picture was actually snapped in the Connecticut House of Representatives on 31 August 2009 by photographer Jessica Hill, while Rep. Larry Cafero was delivering a lengthy speech on the state budget.
