What He (And They) Do Best
That's Jim Bunning, hard at work. Bunning complained, saying the bill “confiscates more money from the taxpayers” and “tramples on American freedom and liberties.” Soon after, Bunning decided to take a little nap:But hey, Bunning and the rest of his party can go to sleep once the lobbyists read it.During opening remarks at the Senate Finance Committee session, the Kentucky Republican appeared fast asleep for several minutes, with his head cocked to the side and his eyes closed, before a staffer roused him. Bunning’s head was propped in his hand and his mouth was slightly open while he slept, several witnesses told HOH..
The staffer nudged his shoulder to wake him once it became clear that members of the audience had noticed the snoozing Senator (it was apparently the giggling from the crowd that tipped the staffer off)
Sleep while their grownups do their job.
Your Republican Party nowadays. But hey, let's be bipartisan here, because we sure as hell know a lot of Democrats are having fun as well.
