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 supposed to the important news of the day. Okay, maybe only some of it. So if you disagree, go watch reruns on CSPAN. Or watch your government in neutral on CSPAN2.

My own thoughts? This time, just share. It's that time of year. It's your turn. Snowe, snowed out federal government, snowball fights, gun rights, health care, no school, no SALT, Byrd, crosswords. This is hard on a mobile.
