Anyone shocked, other than that the story is from ABC News?

For shame, Mr. Coburn, for shame. Two stories, the first from The Hill The feud between Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) and Sen. Tom Coburn (R-Okla.) flared up again Wednesday over Coburn’s objection to a bill protecting sharks. The shark legislation, which deals with a prohibition on the harvesting of shark fins, was one […]
