Something Worth Reading In Rolling Stone

I know what you're thinking. ARE YOU EFFIN' KIDDING ME? Since when has Rolling Stone had anything worth reading? Yeah, you got your bi-weekly Rees, but for eff's sake they're still doing cover stories on Jimi Hendrix. But this week they have a fantastic (if depressing) story by Matt Taibbi about the veritable hogpen that is our national legislature. Ever since I read this Taibbi has become one of my favorite columnists and journalists and this piece, while in one sense made me say, "duh, of course!", on the other hand enraged.
