IN WHICH CONFIRMATION FOR THE TITLE OF THIS POST REVEALS TO ME THAT THE GUY'S NAME WAS "BIG BONES BILLY" AND NOT "BIG BALLS BILLY", WHICH IS HOW I ALWAYS HEARD IT: GOP Senate leaders have refused to allow a vote on a resolution by Sens. Corzine and Lautenberg to honor Bruce Springsteen on the 30th anniversary of "Born To Run".

Groaner two-error quote from our nation's only bearded Senator, however: "We'll never surrender looking for ways to honor our local hero, who made it big in this land of hopes and dreams."

(Better/worse: "Though I had reason to believe this resolution was just around the corner from the light of day, we found living proof that I might have to prove it all night with a filibuster to ramrod this bill, but that's the price you pay if we should fall behind having a Senate majority which operates under a code of silence."
