Literally Watch!

On an NPR newscast this morning and elsewhere, a congressman discussing the stimulus/package tells the interviewer there isn't enough information available: "We're literally flying blind"*. Uh, always a bad idea, congressman or not, even with instruments!

[*"This process has been so rushed and so one-sided that we are literally flying blind," Camp, the top Republican on the House Ways and Means Committee, said during an early evening meeting of negotiators from each chamber.]
