Attention DC Dems: Listen to your President (if not your constituents)

[Stinky The Clown]

President Al Gore today, in a truly remarkable speech at DAR Constitution Hall, just a block or three from the White House, called the squatter who hides there a criminal.

But then, we all knew that.

No, the really important message in his speech today was addressed to you, the elected democrats serving in the US Congress, both houses.

You are shirking your duty - your sworn duty - to keep a check on the executive. We, your lowly constituents have been shouting this for years.

Today your President gave you an order.

Do it.
