The Capitol Visitors Center, which opened this morning, may have tripled its original budget and fallen years behind schedule, but Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid found a silver lining for members of Congress: tourists won't offend them with their B.O. anymore.
"My staff tells me not to say this, but I'm going to say it anyway," said Reid in his remarks. "In the summer because of the heat and high humidity, you could literally smell the tourists coming into the Capitol. It may be descriptive but it's true."
But it's no longer going to be true, noted Reid, thanks to the air conditioned, indoor space.
And that's not all. "We have many bathrooms here, as you can see," Reid continued. "Souvenirs are available."

Is this all you have to whine about? Really, you are hanging by a very thin and frayed thread these days. You really do a disservice to conservatives and Republicans with your constant whining about non-issues.
I never understood why you assume the fecal position when it comes to Drudge. He's really just a headline service linking to CNN, MSDNC, Fox, AP and so forth.
If the complaint is about Drudge being "conservative", we see plenty links here from the decidedly liberal Raw Story, "Media Matters", Oblermann rants, Maddow, etc. So what's the "AHAAAA!!!! DRUDGE, I KNEW IT!!" all about? Seems kinda goofy and hypocritical.
