Reid has been playing games for two years now, keeping the Senate in session for 30 seconds at a time to keep Bush from making recess appointments. Payback is a bitch.

Sen. Arthur Vandenberg (R-Mich.) said, "No good can come to the country from a special session of Congress which obviously stems solely from political motives."

Some things never change, and politics is one of those things ... all is fair in politics, Artie ... it was in 1948 and it still is in 2008 ....

If the republicans wanted, they could put a stop to that by keeping a person in the room to call for an absense of a quorum. That would force all the senators to come back.

But the republican senators don’t want to come back either.
