BLAME THE MEDIA - EVERYONE ELSE DOES

Rep. Glenn Vaad slipped at the Capitol on Tuesday en route to a news interview, injured his hamstring, went into shock, fainted and was hauled out on a stretcher by paramedics.

The Mead Republican got a lot of sympathy as he hobbled on crutches Wednesday. The good news, he reported, is that a cardiac test found nothing seriously wrong.

House Minority Leader Mike May couldn't resist.

"I want to point out that we actually have medical evidence that at least one Republican does have a heart," said May, R-Parker.

QUICK THINKING

"Thank you, Senator with the movie star looks."
