Usually when I get angry I feel really guilty about it... this time, not so much. Glad I read this before, and not after my workout. I've noticed that on those rare occasions when I become angry, it gives me a nice little boost to my energy. Maybe I should read more about this Coburn... and throw some of that energy into helping the people of Oklahoma replace him.

Is this guy up for re-election soon?
