Byrd Admitted to the Hospital
Sen. Robert Byrd, the longest serving member of the Senate, was admitted to Walter Reed hospital last night due to a back injury sustained Monday night. The injury is not life-threatening. Here’s wishing Sen. Byrd a speedy recovery.

It’s pathetic that people keep sending these ridiculously over the hill men back to the Senate. I think serious questions of mental and physical health can be raised about a number of members of the Senate. Even those who are technically sound are certainly out of touch. We have age minimums and perhaps maximums are necessary too.
