Retiring Rep. Patrick Kennedy, a Rhode Island Democrat, is clearly upset with the media's morbid fascination with Tickle-Me-Massa. He feels that this episode is robbing newspaper inches and front-page real estate from the coverage our brave colleagues are producing out of Afghanistan. And when I say upset, I mean really, really, really, really upset. Like a shaking rage. And, remember, the chamber was mostly empty at the time of this speech.
