Tammy Duckworth Becomes First Sitting Senator to Give Birth

Do others do it while standing? Most do it while lying, I think.

Or maybe most senators are impotent or unfertile.

I also like this one I saw:

Most people can lie and sit at the same time. Politicians are particularly adept at it.

Precisely!

I could say something else funny, but she is my senator so I won't go there...

No other senators have given birth? That seems odd to me. However, I checked it out and you are right. Geez. We need more young women in office!

Today's gem from Politico:

quote:

Senate poised to allow Duckworth’s newborn on the floor

Wondering if they're referring to the floor of the office Sen D gave birth in? Or perhaps they plan to give the baby the floor during a Senate hearing? (I think I'd prefer a newborn's squalls to Hatch Gowdy et al).

I so agree, Bethree.

They really are having trouble reporting about Duckworth and her baby, aren't they? I do feel lucky that she is my senator.
