Congress voted 398 to 1 last week to eliminate the word "lunatic" from federal statute. The lone no vote was from Rep. Louie Gohmert of Texas, who explained:
Not only should we not eliminate the word ‘lunatic’ from federal law when the most pressing issue of the day is saving our country from bankruptcy, we should use the word to describe the people who want to continue with business as usual in Washington.
