@knave77: If it's any consolation, tube-o-fat Boss Hogg Sennsenbrenner is a rep from my area- and I am equally ashamed of him...

Had I been in Ms. Williams shoes, the lawyers, arbiter and the execs for the Coffee Beaner wouldn't have the option to ever be involved in MBA again. If there is ever a justification for "going postal" that is it!

I am truly embarrassed that Cannon is my representative. I have never voted for the idiot, and I never will.

Anyone wish they had kept the mic open for about an extra minute.

At the end was just some woman i think saying.

@alk509: Perfect definition of the new age conservative; except for its completely wrong and just an attempt to insult. And not even well. Oh noez, you called us empowering.

3:29: Conservatives should be all over this bill. They're all about returning power to the local level, empowering local decision makers."

Old-school conservatives, maybe... The people calling themselves conservatives nowadays are all about empowering themselves, their cronies, and the corporations that own them.

When Consumerist does liveblogging can you mention what broadcast it might be on and the base web address to get the video feed. I am guessing these are CSPAN maybe but what version?
