You know, as if winning the Derby weren't enough, we need Congress to waste time patting the jockey on the back (nevermind the horse) and yet again elevate a pasttime sporting event to something much more admirable than showing up for work every day and doing a good job.

I hear you on this one...what is wrong with just sending them a card. Good Grief! I saw a similar on on congratulating the Steelers for their win in the super bowl. What a waste of our money and their time.
