‘What a crowd! You sound like Congress going on its five-week vacation.

‘Congress went on a five-week vacation, starting today. Boy, do they deserve it!

‘They got so much done this year, solved the energy crisis, health care, Social Security, immigration.... Take a break, fellas.

‘Have you noticed Congress doesn’t even call it a ‘vacation.’ They call it a ‘recess.’

‘How come the only ones who get recess are Congress, kindergartners and juries? The three groups you can’t trust to make an adult decision.’
