At last week's welcome dinner for new House members, Democrat Larsen sought out fellow dentist and Republican Charlie Norwood, a Georgian with a perfect rating from the Christian Coalition.

It's called legislation, and until the Constitution is amended, it is how things get done. Washington can be venal and small.
