Monk Comments: I'm takin' my ball and go home

When we played soccer, the football and basketball players, who invariably sucked at soccer, would cheat rather than endure the humiliation of being bested in a sport by us scrawny nerds. If we were unlucky enough to get the gym teacher who was also the football coach, they never got called on it.
But guess what? We still kicked their asses, and we smiled as we wrung the blood from our tube socks.
So I like to think of those Texas legislators holed up in Albequerque as the scrawny nerds in gym class. They too are willing to have their shins bloodied if it will at least give the Republican no-necks a bad day.
They're acting so courageously, I almost find it hard to believe they're Democrats!
You payin' attention, Lieberman?
