Reader Jim suggests that if you’ve spent the last few weeks beating up your Senators to vote against the Shamnesty Bill, you should also drop them a line to thank them for listening if they were one of the ones that voted the right way.
Good idea, but isn’t there more we could do? Like maybe:
* Send a “Thanks for killing the bill” Strip-o-gram.
* Let them stay up past their bedtimes to watch themselves on C-Span.
* De-fuse the bomb wired to their ignition switch.
* Burn the negatives of those compromising pictures.
Any other ideas?
Well, either ice cream or pizza party.
Or darker…
Tell Jack Bower he can stand down now, and release the loved ones.
oops, Jack Bauer.
Pay Harvey to stop making them seem to be blundering idiots ? Oops, we would have to pay you to make them NOT seem as blundering gasbags.
Burn all the AOL IM transcripts with the pages?
Promise to have cute baby in near future that will be just ‘ripe for the kissin’.
Stop telling people that Senator (so and so) openly wishes they were prettier in pink than John Edwards.

Sure, he’s doing the right thing now, but there’s still a price to pay for past behavour.
I’ll send a nice, snarky little email the day Trent Lott is fired.
Jack has a point. Maybe we just send a note that says something like, “Thanks for finally doing the right thing BUT just remember (wag index finger in their face) I’m watching you mister!”
Either that or just get them a pizza and a handful of tokens at ChuckUrCheeze.
Send them a tight GAG, so they have time to think about what they are going to say as they remove it.
Either that or a shoehorn to remove their foot from their mouth.
