Coming up on cspan3 the director of the National Institutes of health testifying before congress about how the nih spends its money. Then a Senate Banking Committee Hearing looking at whether beenal regulations should be eased for smaller banks.

Eventually we involved hospice and he was able to die in his own apartment with the support of his wife and family. During that time period i got to kno...

Not oring up fake constructions that will never be accepted. Who is taking the initiative on the hill to do that. Most of the leadership has expressed one way or another they see their job as to stop the president. To obstruct. To undermine. Certainly the netanyahu invitation was another grotesque example of the abuse of the traditional role. I couldnt agree more with the sentiment of the question. Much has to be done on capitol hill.
