Steelers Are America’s Team: 434 Nays, 1 Yay

Here is the list of political priorities for Congressman Jason Altmire of Pennsylvania:↵↵-- Repair economy↵

↵↵-- Locate Bin Laden↵

↵↵-- Fix health care↵

↵↵-- Brag about the Steelers↵

↵↵-- Lower unemployment in home state↵

↵Boy, that’s quite a list. All of them admirable tasks, indeed, except for that little bit about football, of course. Perhaps he mixed up his professional and personal priority lists. Because, certainly, he wouldn’t waste even a minute of Congress’ time talking about Pittsburgh winning the Super -- oh, god, yes he would:↵

↵Were there no representatives from Arizona in the House at the time to boo this man? This kind of crap wouldn’t fly in the Parliament without some serious heckling. Although, if nothing else, at least Altmire reflects the attitude of his constituents. (This is not a compliment.)
