Our Founding Fathers would be proud of the Bipartisan seating idea.

You can't make this stuff up.

I don't even think Hollywood could have scripted this.

Almost 30 Senators and about a dozen House members have signed on tothe idea of Bipartisan seating at the State of the Union Address.

I'm very impressed.

No more Republicans on the right and the Democrats on the left, not this year if Sen. Mark Udall (D-Colo.) and Sen.Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) have their way.

They drafted a letter last week, and so far 22 Dem. Senators, 6 Rep. Senators, 12 House Dem. & 2 House Rep. signed on to the idea. There have been other members of Congress that have voiced support for the new seating arrangement.

"Rekindle that common spark that brought us here from 50 different states and widely diverging backgrounds to serve the public good", was the inspiration that was conveyed in the letter.

The heated partisan atmosphere in Washington D.C., which some have blamed the Tragedy in Tucson on, may have led to the Bipartisan seating idea.

No matter what brought on the change , I like the show of Unity. At the end of the day, no matter what political party we are part of, we are still all Americans.

The State of the Union Address is Tue., Jan. 25.

Yours in Liberty,

Bob Yeager
