Watch a Congressman Pick His Ear and Eat It Live on CSPAN
Taylor Berman · 05/13/14 08:51AMHere's a great way to start your Tuesday: During a House Judiciary Committee meeting last week, Rep. Joe Garcia (D-FL) picked his ear, looked at the wax on his finger, and then ate it.
Everybody on C-SPAN Is Talking About Mitt Romney's Huge Penis
John Cook · 01/12/12 05:10PMYesterday we brought you a C-SPAN prank caller who asked New Hampshire Republican Party Chairman Wayne MacDonald whether Mitt Romney had a large penis (he does). Turns out it was not an isolated incident. Here is a compilation, via Mediaite, of C-SPAN callers—actually one caller, it sounds like—working in references to Mitt Romney's penis over the air. The last one is positively brilliant. Mitt Romney has a huge penis.

Nick Douglas · 06/21/08 07:35PMThaddeus McCotter (R-Michigan) spent his time on the floor of the House of Representatives yesterday giving a little presentation called "How to Speak Democrat." For example, "progressive" means "regressive"! So witty! And the presentation (shown below) should in no way be seen as the sole thing McCotter has accomplished with his time while he only raised $8,500 of the nearly $1 million he's supposed to raise for the National Republican Congressional Committee.

Sexing Up C-Span: "Free-Roaming Lens-Groping"
Chris Mohney · 01/03/07 05:30PMWe can't really appreciate the subtleties of the argument to include more panning and reaction shots of C-Span's coverage of Congress, which will supposedly let news orgs get a more authentic vision of what's going on down among the seats or on the floor. However, Nancy Pelosi has declined on behalf of the House at least, and we kind of like her pinch-hitter's rebuttal: "Such free-roaming lens-groping would defeat the original purpose of broadcasting House debates." Though perhaps Congress as a whole is trying to shed its formerly pro-groping image.
