Politico reports that the anonymous hold on the inspector general for the financial bailout has been lifted, clearing his way for Senate confirmation.
TPM notes that it was rumored that Senator Jim Bunning had placed the hold.
And that gives me an excuse to link to this audio clip of Bunning complaing that at a state fair, "little green doctors were pounding on my back."
It's sort of like bottled hot water, only weirder.
