Rep. Ernest Istook, R-Okla) -- A dispute with other lawmakers over Amtrak funding had nothing to do with an Oklahoma congressman's loss of his chairmanship of a House Appropriations subcommittee, he said. HarHarHar (that didn't work. I was trying to link to a previous post where I correctly predicted that Istook would have more free time this session.

Freshman Sen. Tom Coburn (R-OK) whose 1st vote on the Judiciary Committee was in favor of Alberto Gonzales, President Bush's choice for attorney general. Coburn is co-sponsporing an informed consent bill that would require that women going through the excruciating , agonizing ordeal that is abortion, must be informed that a fetus feels pain at 41 days gestation. I assume he will push for fetal anesthesia to be made available in these cases, though I can't find where he may have mentioned that.
I wonder what age a human must become before Coburn stops caring about their pain. Not only stops caring but endorses torture through his vote for Gonzales.
