4. Oh! I thought maybe Bush gave Erik or Lyle Menendez a recess appointment


The Brothers Grim
Lyle and Erik Menendez, sons of a successful Cuban-American business executive, were convicted of first-degree murder on March 20, 1996, for the shotgun killings of their parents, Jose and Kitty Menendez. They are each serving two consecutive life prison terms without the possibility of parole. Lyle, now 34, is being held at the California Correctional Institution at Tehachapi. Erik, now 31, is at the California State Prison in Sacramento County.

3. What day is Corzine supposed to be inaugurated?
Maybe he'll resign his seat on his first day as Governor.

5. Tomorrow
Nothing on CSPAN according to the schedules.

He already made his farewell speech the same day "we killed the Patriot Act"

First wanted more debate after losing the vote, but the Dems took it up with praise and stories of Corzine :evilgrin:
