If I said, “Congress Is Acting Silly Again” you might accuse me of wasting words because word “Again” would not be necessary.
Below I have listed 3 examples of Congressional Silliness. To be honest with you the prior sentence is a lie. Two of them are Fine Examples of Congressional Silliness but one of them is a Fine Example of Something I Made Up.
Can you tell which one I made up?...
Ø He said it's possible that some reporters are ensnared in leak investigations right now but they wouldn’t know it unless there was a subpoena, a search warrant or an Actual Leak About the Leak Investigation.
Ø It is obvious that the process is replete with redundancy which is all the more reason why we need to Repeat Every Step in the Process before we move on.
Ø I am pleased to report to you that we finally have oversight in the form of an Oversight Committee Investigation but we now desperately need Oversight of the Oversight Committee.
You can’t tell which is the one I made up can you? Don’t feel badly. Congress has a long and storied history of being Silly. They are very good at it.
In those meetings Congress will not let us get into, you can hear this said over and over, “You are out of order! How many times have I told you, if it’s not foolish, don’t even bother to bring it up for discussion!”
Would I kid u?

Lagniappe: #2 above is the one I made up. Take a moment and read the other 2. Kind of makes you sad, does it not?
