Congress-collective iq of eggplant

Let me get this straight. After a few years of ignoring significant issues regarding executive power, executive priviledge, the balance of power between the three branches, etc, Congress has finally located its collective manhood with regards to the issue: The FBI cannot search congressional offices.

No don't say that! I don't like the implications of that!

I promise not to buy a ticket.

Congressional pay raises are always a bipartisan concern, too.

After all the screamin' and hollerin' about the president not being above the law......

There is truly nowhere to go.

don't worry about the spoilerage, i don't really mind spoilers. In fact, jon and I got into an little argument over Hotel Rwanda, because I told him I didn't want to watch it unless I knew ahead of time if the family died. ;p

I can understand that.

The finale was great. I think they let several minor plot lines dribble off this season without doing much for the show (Shannon's death, Ana and Jack, Claire and Locke, Sawyer got the guns and meds, then gave them back; men of faith and science can both be idiots); maybe too many different writers working within the masters' storyplan? But the major arcs are the substance of the finale (button, others), and they do a great combination of answering some questions while raising a whole new slew. Things end in a nicely precarious way, but nothing like last season's "open the hatch, cut to black." You know exactly what trouble various groups are in; new info was revealed getting them there, but do they get out? Will anyone besides Eko get the better of Henry in a conversation? What's up with the dog, anyway? All hanging out there.
