You want freaky? I'll give you freaky
So as some know, I got transfered from my internship at Congressman Lacy Clay to Congresswoman Marcy Kaptur's office. So I got out of work early yesterday from Kaptur's office, and I head over to the corner of the Cannon building to wait for my friend who is my friend, and I am sitting on the side of the building, and I see a man walking by, I was like holy shit I think thats Lacy Clay, I had met him once, but not really on a personal basis, get this, he recongized me, even though I had recently shaved and had two new scratch marks, he was like you doin all right? yeah I said, doing good. :shrug: and here I thought I was just another face in the crowd.

hah, Kaptur is a good dem, a little socially conservative but very much in the new deal tradition of democrats standing up for the little guy.

2. some people are good with names and faces
I'm not one of them, so I admire people who are.
Congressman Bobby Scott is good at that

3. Bobby Scott's a good guy
A couple years of ago, I read the ACLU ratings, and Bobby was the only democrat to get an 100 from the ACLU, many others came close but Bobby got a 100 because of his vote against Campaign Fiance Reform, whether you agree with it or not, you gotta admire him. I am in the district of the only republican I believe to get a 0 that year, since Frank Wolf who is my congressman voted for CFR. Virginia sure is a weird state, yeah I like that too, I cant believe he recongized me to be honest since its not like we were face to face or anything like that, he was some distance from me.

5. Hey they're just Congressmen, not Gods
:D - even though they have God-rights at the Longworth Building Elevators!

I met a few Congressmen when I worked there. Have fun! I still miss reading Roll Call every morning.
