Quickie...

I'm at work, so can't take much time here, but compare and contrast:

McCain put out a statement condemning the Democrats in the Senate for going on a scheduled break instead of staying around to work on energy legislation (when in fact the Republicans have been blocking everything in the Senate with fillibusters until they get their way anyway).

Meanwhile, McCain last showed up to cast a vote in the Senate on April 8th. Since that time, he's missed 108 consecutive floor votes including several on energy related issues, making it now four months since he did any work at all. He's also missed more votes than any other currently serving Senator.

Of course, we're still PAYING him to be a Senator. So it's a little bit disingenuous for him to be castigating ANYONE in the Senate for not doing their job.
