No Higher Priority?

What does Senator Arlen Specter (R-PA) think is an important use of Congressional time, energy, and money? Is it to confirm judges? Is it to pare down a budget and exercise fiscal restraint?

No.

It's to use Congress' time and powers to investigate the NFL's conduct of how the league investigated the New England Patriots videotaping of opponents (ht: Althouse).

Is there nothing more important on the world agenda to spend time on a game?

What a farce.

This really tells me that Congress has way too much time on their hands and people like Specter ought to be retired from Congress so they can really concentrate on what's really important for the nation's future.
