Good afternoon, West Virginia Blue readers. This is your late afternoon open thread to discuss all things Hill-related. Use this thread to praise or bash Congresscritters, share a juicy tip, ask questions, offer critiques and suggestions, or post manifestos.

Help me out. Enjoy the Ogden silliness and flip-flop again. Add some news...

CA Berkeley WV :: Capitol Hill News Open Thread
Serious scheduling conflict today. Sorry.

David has a few ideas not posted here yet. About process.

Don't forget that the Congress set up the Congressional Oversight Panel. The last hearing was 4 March with Assistant Treasury Secretary Herbert M. Allison, Jr. and Citigroup Chief Executive Officer Vikram Pandit testifying. I am a big fan of Prof. Warren. Rep. Jeb Hensalring R-TX quit because there was going to be more to oversee.

On the general topic of the economy, Simon Johnson is worth the read today.

The editor of my local paper thinks they are smarter the Sen. Byrd on Senate procedure. They used to think he as standing tall. What a difference two days make. Hah!

In The Most Important News of the Day TM. former Rep. Massa is sucking all the air, even in the #NetherRegionsofGlenbeckistan.
