The Senate conducted some late-night business overnight, some of it good, but most of it awful:
Freedom-hating, pretend-energy-loving, pro-subsidy John Bryson was confirmed as Commerce Secretary.
Home loans backed by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac can now be increased.
Killed a Pub-led effort to bar civilian trials for foreign terror suspects.
On the plus side:
Put the nix on subsidies for farmers who definitely don't need them.
Killed some key provisions of the MEC's bill to funnel yet more federal largesse to government indoctrinators (also known as public school teachers)
