Legacy Journal: The U.S. Senate:  Paying Attention to the Details with Dianne Feinstein.

Section:

Politics

Summary:

Kennedy is on Medical Leave, Clinton is managing the mess of a missed opportunity, Obama is voting “Present”, Byrd is recovering, and Harry Read is not taken seriously.  Meanwhile, the Senior Senator from California is doing by default what other will not or can not do---- mind the store.  The washingtonpost reports what has long been known— the Senate dining room needs attention if not the reform of a major menu makeover.

Main:

The Senator, seems to have the grace to take on tasks begging to be done.  One was hosting the recent one on one quiet and constructive conversation between fellow Senators Clinton and Obama at her home in Washington . It seems to be in her nature, yes, her DNA, to do and say the right thing at the right time.  Her surgeon father, Leon Goldman, had the same skill set.  Calm demeanor, Character, Wisdom from Experience, Grace under pressure, Common Sense, Clarity of Purpose, Action Oriented have long been among Dr. Goldman’s daughter’s sterling qualities.  Goldman was known as “the Coach” among his peers and students at UCSF.  He was observant, a gentleman, and a skilled Surgical Department Chairman.

Now, if the Senator could have just found a way to have justified her voting in favor of the current Chief Justice Roberts. But that is another story more important than minding after proper lunches for aging Senators and the jobs of Senate food service employee who seem to have entitlements, if not true academic tenure.
