First, I'd like to welcome the reader from the senate sargeant at arms. If you're wondering what / who that is, I don't know. But they have read my blog. I feel so special. Now on to our bushes, and I am of course referring to the Kennedys who are the Bushes of the Democratic party. Or really, the Bushes are the Kennedys of the Republican party. As it turns out, despite the "Kennedy curse" Ted K can't die. Lightning struck his plane and they lost all power and had to land with no help from air traffic control yet no harm came to Ted. I guess the universe is overcompensating for killing every one else in the family. Ted, glad you're still with us, now please get back to work on the minimum wage thing.
