#1 I think I've seen that picture before. Oh well, in Sacramento they play Solitaire.

#2 Some of the bills that are proposed and passed in the halls of Congress tend towards pornography.

#4 Research!

At least (with the way he was flipping thru the apps in the video) we know where his hands were at the time.

#6 Another Republican; he'll fall for this. It would be genrally acceptable behavior for a Dem (see Lewinsky, Monica).

#8 at least the girls were on the computer screen and not crawling around the Oval Office on their hands and knees, like Monica.

#9 Anyone whom has been in the mighty Halls of LOCAL + STATE(S) + NATIONAL, + even INTERNATIONAL, CONGRESS/GOVT-CRITTERS + AGENCIES SHOULD NOT BE SURPRISED.

A real issue is how Superiors are allowed to do so while underlings or other can't do same.

Don't be silly, JosephM. There has to be a payoff for getting to the top.

More seriously, I do not believe that bit of snark I wrote above. Those who earnt their way to the top should know when they need to focus on the situation, and when it only their presence that is required. I can imagine that the majority of the time during debates and such, nothing important is being said, and therefore does not need to be listened carefully to. Personally, I would prefer the honourable state senator had been paying his bills on-line or working on his novel, but after a while even that palls.
