POPS The 110th's Do-Nothingness -- They Need A Rest: Yipee A bipartisan group of senators who sought a compromise in the rancorous energy debate won't introduce their bill before lawmakers adjourn for the elections, several Senate aides said Thursday. Since the group won't offer a bill, it's unclear how the energy debate will unfold days before the scheduled Sept. 26 adjournment. Anyway, it sounds like the Senate will now not find the time to debate and vote on an energy bill before the recess (they need rest, darn it, they've been back at work for days! ), but that seems better than passing a meaningless bill and taking the issue off the table for the foreseeable future. For a change, the 110th's do-nothingness and partisan gridlock is a blessing.
