Want to go to the zoo, aquarium or museum? Don’t like the crowds and car parking problems associated with such a trip? Well, stay at home and watch odd creatures by tuning into the hearings for the Supreme Court vacancy! Truly a political paleontologist’s delight as stentorian fossils are displayed in their D.C. habitat. Nearly as much fun as touring a treatment plant, my apologies to the sewage centers. If the tenured troglodytes’ questioning and grandstanding doesn’t slake your primordial political palate, the accompanying protesters antics akin to a shark feeding frenzy may do the trick. Hold on! It may be more relaxing and fun to go a zoo, etc., as there are no expectations of better instinctual behavior with animals.

Anyone wondering why the Congressional approval rating has reached the near nadir of 18% percent? The hearing proves the need for immediate term limits.
