Julia Carson, from Indianapolis, congratulated the Colts for letting America know that her district is not “all drive-by shootings.” … Rep. Peter King’s cell ringer: “Hot in Herre” by Nelly. [Roll Call]
* Reliable Source: Miss America… One of the lawsuits against Jessica Cutler was thrown out! The one in DC remains. [WP]
* Yeas and Nays: MoveOn members target Jim Webb’s office in a phone-bombing campaign. To, uh, thank him for not supporting the war… Bill Maher still makin’ those jokes. Boy oh boy, is he ever… Joe Lieberman: “I’m the Lorax.” We think there are probably a couple other Dr Seuss characters he resembles more. [Examiner]
* Under the Dome: Ted Kennedy zinged John Boehner at a dinner… Dem staffers stole Rep. Paul Rhodes guitar from his office, brought it to the Dem retreat. Then Hodes and John Hall sang “Still the One.” … Jane Harman skipped the retreat because she hates Nancy Pelosi (j/k they are BFF!). [The Hill]
