Harry Reid said that a health-care bill might not be on the president's desk until after the first of the year. He didn't say which president and what year.

The openly weird Senator Joe Lieberman threatened to filibuster his fellow Democrats' health-care plan if it contains a public option. Joe favors a private option to look, talk and quack like a Republican.

Before the Senate takes up climate control, it might want to think about Lieberman control.

The Democrat won in New York's 23rd District, aka the Watertown Waterloo. Please resume not giving a hoot about what happens up there, and thanks for your attention.
