Justice Talking About All Blogs Today's Blog Forums
The Capitol Steps began as a group of Senate staffers who set out to satirize the very people and places that employed them. In the years that followed, many of the Steps ignored the conventional wisdom ("Don't quit your day job!"), and although not all of the current members of the Steps are former Capitol Hill staffers, taken together the performers have worked in a total of eighteen Congressional offices and represent 62 years of collective House and Senate staff experience.

Cows Gone Mad

The U.S. Department of Agriculture had to politely ask for the biggest meat recall in history since it actually has no authority to force a recall.  The Hallmark/Westland Meat Packing Company was caught on Humane Society video mistreating animals and forcing "downer" cows, which could be carrying mad cow disease, to slaughter.
