I couldn't help but smile in seeing this story from a few days ago about Connecticut legislators amusing themselves with their laptops during session. It brings back such fond memories of the Assembly Late Night post from December 2005. These Connecticut legislators should get in touch with Phil Montgomery at some legislative junket. Phil likes to play solitaire too.
Of course, unlike Connecticut leggies, Wisconsin leggies are smart enough to implement policies that keep the press away from positions in the chamber that would allow them to take photos like this. They might not be great at governance, but when it comes to covering their own asses, Wisconsin legislators are among the best in the nation.

Cheessehead Poker: The act of Wisconsin Assembly members playing games on their computers doing legislative floor sessions so, that they don't have to come up actual policy debates on the floor. Usually results in elections loses if majority of the caucus members are participating. Secondary effects can cause leadership members Congressional bids to end in defeat or stillborn.
