Robert Byrd Tells Everyone To Shut Up
This one is even about committees...specifically the Senate Appropriations Committee, of which Robert Byrd is the chair. Byrd is 90 years old and the longest serving Senator in history, AND third in line to the presidency (and people think McCain is old). Anyway an interesting article about, well, certainly seniority if nothing else.

Hey, more power to him if he can still go to the Capitol and make his voice heard, then way to go! I just say hey, at least he's trying to make a difference and do something about it regardless of his age.
