I first thought this was a joke but it appears to be true. Our hard-working Senate Republicans are blocking any committee hearing after 2 PM. Is the GOP becoming the PTP (Part Time Party)?
If we learn anything from this, it may be that if you expect the Senate to do much, you should not vote for a Republican. Something to think about in November!
I thought this was a new one but apparently the democrats used this back in the 90s. See http://voices.washingtonpost.com/ezra-klein/2010/03/senate_republicans_refuse_to_w.html
