So with no particular point in mind, other than to pass on somewhat interesting information, here is the information from the site as it pertains to our native son. It is safe to say that this list will be growing quickly in the near future.

Wow...one female (out of 8, 12.5%).
I'll have to remember that when he starts lecturing me about diversity.
(Just like the time he lectured me about needing to become less dependent on foreign oil, and then proceeded to drive off with his staff in a fleet of SUVs)
Anon - lighten up and get real.
My comment is only that this story was way fun, and thanks for making it available. While the fact that we political junkies need to get our fixes by looking at this information is rather sad, what a great site/story, and thanks!
