Can you guess where this picture was taken? I’ll give you a hint: although you may never have heard of them, Kaufman and Klobuchar are exceedingly junior Democratic members of the Senate Judiciary Committee. They sit far from the dais – often in folding chairs, or on shared benches. They’re not allowed to grab food from the buffet; they have to brown-bag it and sit at the kids’ table.
This picture was taken this morning, when they welcomed Arlen Specter to the cheap seats.
There’s good and bad news for Arlen. The good news is that he was promised a subcommittee chairmanship. The bad news is his old friend Chairman Pat Leahy says he might not get it.

Arnold may gett a better seat
johnt Thursday, May 7th at 2:22PM EST (link)if he swallows the Dem program whole, no wishy-washy stuff about independence. Perhaps a seat with a cushion and coffee & danish privileges. These guys play for keeps Arnold.
In any case this calls for a “big tent, inclusion” lecture by Colin Powell. A bit of moralizing directed at the Dems by this windbag may be in order. While he’s at it maybe he can explain his role in the My Lai massacre. It’s never too late and he was battalion commander, I mean while he’s moralizing.

red4ever (Diary) Thursday, May 7th at 2:53PM EST (link)Not to defend Specter, or the other Junior members but denying them buffet privileges is just rude. They are still US Senators, after all. To say “these members are special and get taxpayer funded food and you don’t” just is wrong.
The hottest places in hell are reserved for those who, in times of great moral crisis, maintain their neutrality.
