Good afternoon, Daily Kos readers. This is your afternoon open thread to discuss all things Hill-related. Use this thread to praise or bash Congresscritters, share a juicy tip, ask questions, offer critiques and suggestions, or post manifestos.

As always, this is a crosspost from CongressMatters. This is the important news of the day. Okay, maybe only some of it. So if you disagree, go watch CSPAN. Or watch your government in neutral on CSPAN2.

Here are some of my own thoughts.

Shorter^TM version today.

In case you had not heard, the list: Bunning R-KY, DeMint R-SC, Vitter R-LA, Hutchison R-T, Crapo R-ID, and Merkley D-OR.

That was monetary policy, this is fiscal, part two

Deficit scolds were lose today. How's that audit of the DOD coming?

At least a former auditor is asking questions

You knew this was not over yet, right? Got a calendar handy?

Sen. Ben Nelson is still playing hard to get. Him, too

Jay, Sheldon and Joe?

Rule XV. Talk some more.

Okay, it's Rep. Barney Frank's D-MA-4 line. Busted.

At least it was not anything to do with toes.
