At a Senate hearing on Wednesday, Senator Claire McCaskill grilled John Metzler, who was superintendent of Arlington for 19 years, and his deputy, Thurman Higginbotham. Both were forced to retire last month after the Army announced shocking irregularities at Arlington National Cemetery, following an investigation by Salon.com.

6. She's almost a blue dog,

not quite, but she comes close to it. She's my senator and levels above the moron she replaced(Talent), but she has a long way to go.

7. Interesting.

I think she was very narrow-minded, a bully, and mean-spirited on single payer. She really turned me off.

I hope she can develop into something better.
