    In other Palin news:

    Stein says that as mayor, Palin continued to inject religious beliefs into her policy at times. "She asked the library how she could go about banning books," he says, because some voters thought they had inappropriate language in them. "The librarian was aghast." The librarian, Mary Ellen Baker, couldn't be reached for comment, but news reports from the time show that Palin had threatened to fire her for not giving "full support" to the mayor.

      Feingold (S.230) died in committee.

      Coburn (S.2590) was merely the creation of a database of those receiving federal funds.

      Lugar-Obama was merely authorization of funding of very modest size for a non-proliferation program.

      These are huge accomplishments.
      I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

        Obama-Feingold was signed into law. I think it's S. 1, but I'd have to check.

          It was an expansion of Nunn-Lugar to deal with conventional arms proliferation.

            OK, with regard to veteran care, Obama's bill (S. 713) died in committee. Nice accomplishment.

            With regard to ethics, what is the bill to which you are referring? Because neither Obama nor Biden were sponsors or co-sponsors of the passed ethics reform bill (S. 1).

            These accomplishments are truly astounding, I must say.
            This is the bill I was talking about:

            Obama, McCaskill Plan Military Hospitals Bill

            Seizing on an investigative report by The Washington Post's Dana Priest and Anne Hull, Sens. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) and Claire McCaskill (D-Mo.) will introduce legislation next week to require more frequent inspections of hospitals providing treatment to active-duty military personnel.

            The report by Priest and Hull documented dismal conditions that wounded soldiers endure at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, D.C. Considered the premier medical institution for the Army, Walter Reed is so crowded that some wounded soldiers are cared for in Building 18, which The Post reported has broken elevators, ice-covered walkways that confined soldiers to their rooms and other problems. (The Pentagon announced yesterday that repairs are underway for Building 18.)

            The treatment of the wounded veterans and recuperating soldiers has been a main talking point for congressional Democrats for the last two years, and one that Obama is sure to bring up on the presidential campaign trail.

            In addition, Sens. Barbara Mikulski (D-Md.) and Patty Murray (D-Wash.) wrote to Defense Secretary Robert Gates today demanding an inspector general's investigation into living conditions for the returning soldiers at Walter Reed.

              You guys are really scraping the bottom of the barrel here. Don't bust a nut trying to find the accomplishments.

                  I see what's going on. S. 1 basically appropriated key parts of S. 230. As I said, Obama and Feingold are widely credited as the main architects of the legislation. A quick google search bears this out.

                    Feingold credits Obama, the designated point man on the Senate ethics bill, for holding firm against "enormous pressure from within the Democratic Party" to water it down.

                        Did you not read what I wrote? Again, S. 1 appropriated key parts of S. 230. Obama and Feingold are widely credited for the legislation.

                                Ridiculous spin. Read up on the media coverage of the bill. Again, Obama and Feingold are the main architects. Not the most important piece of legislation ever, but along with Coburn-Obama and Lugar-Obama, constitutes a reasonable set of accomplishments for such a short period in Congress.

                                What does McCain have besides a single piece of legislation used to cover his ass after Keating 5, that has been substantially watered down by the courts?
