O-O-O-bama. Seems to be the man of the new millennium these days. To be honest, he's not doing such a bad job now is he? First of all, the first 100 days in office was like sex. All we could do was stare and oogle. I personally was drooling. Here's the thing about his first one hundred days, there were a lot of reversals from the previous administration and some big promises. He certainly had some large shoes to fill, actually, he brought some new, large, shoes to the table. Health care, Guantanamo bay, Iraq/Afghanistan/North Korea/The rest of the World, climate change, apparently the 2016 Olympics (which I say, if Chicago really wants some Olympics, give them the Special ones...) and whatever else happens during the presidency, for instance, getting a cop and a professor together for a beer. Anywho, there's a lot going on that have all been placed in front of that one man. It's pretty intimidating. Thank god he has a lot of people to help him... wait. No. The people who are supposed to be helping this process, the select few people who are to represent us more individually, Congress, seems to be in a world of their own.

Drafting Today: FANTASY CONGRESS!
No, I'm anything but kidding people Fantasy Congress is Where People Play Politics!While casually surfing about for some snipets on Fantasy Sports I came across the best thing since the ESPN Crew talking pottery, FANTASY CONGRESS. You draft Congressmen and women and they get scores based on their legislation, votes, and soon to come on news they generate and their election metrics. Think you have an edge with your representative? Draft him today and watch as you soar above your Fantasy rivals to Political glory. Too bad league winner doesn't get a free romp on the town free of law enforcement cause you have the blessing of your top Congressional performer. Here's more directly from their website.
"Playing Politics Step One: DRAFTING
Your team consists of sitting Members of Congress (MCs) from all parts of the spectrum of seniority. The more senior a Representative or Senator, the more powerful they are. For your team, you will draft:
- Upper Senators- Senators with seniority more than half the Senate
- Lower Senators- Senators with seniority less than half the Senate
- All-Stars- Senior Representatives
- Supporting Lineup- Mid-Range Representatives
- Rookies- Junior Representatives
You can bench, trade, or grab free agents to react to the changing political climate.
Your league commissioner can choose a range of drafting options, including: Autopick, Offline Draft, Open Draft (Pick'Em), or Silent Auction (where you bid political capital to get Members of Congress)." - for more visit them at FantasyCongress.com
