Flashpoint for Feb. 2, 2006

So first we have to imagine folks in a Harry Reid thong, which stretches the bounds of good taste like Chuck Yeager once pushed the sound envelope. But that image comes courtesy of hawkers I told you about a few days ago. Now Reid himself has given us an image so searing, so frightening that counseling may be required for all those about to read this. According to CQ, Reid was asked about an ethics proposal that would ban former members from lobbying congressman in the House gym. The Senate minority leader said that he had never been lobbied in the House gym but perhaps for good reason: "I'm pretty ugly naked," he said. At long last, sir, have you no sense of decency?
