I used to be too nice to hold a grudge. Now I say hurt those assholes. I would really love to see some Chicago politics applied to them. They need to understand that there's a severe political price that they'll have to pay for such obstructionism.

Oh, the blue dogs? Offices in the basement and assignment to the basket-weaving committees.
