PubliCola TV: Taxes, Tea Parties, and Tennis Shoes

By Chris Kissel April 17, 2009

It's recess in Congress this week. So, "That Washington" mostly took place in this Washington: Rep. Sen. Patty Murray gave out Golden Tennis Shoe awards in Seattle and Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R-WA, 5) spoke at the Spokane TEA party.

Meanwhile, Rep. Dave Reichert's (R-WA, 8) recalculated his odds of winning a 2010 bout with Sen. Murray and Rep. Jim McDermott (D-WA, 7) mulled over the estate tax legislation he's plannning to introduce after recess.

Rep. Brian Baird (D-WA, 3) was neither in this Washington nor that Washington. He was at a symposium at Harvard talking about Gaza.
