business of the senate?

Nice with the excising too :-)

I used the advanced search to find bills in the 109th Congress
Sponsored by Joh Kerry (nothing he cosponsored), Here is the first
page of results:

Yes the Golf club bits are in there, but so is are a lot of other things.

So what exactly is your point? Are you appalled at the record as a
whole? or appalled at the record under a microscope? Are you concerned
that the Senate conducts buisness like this? or that it's only John
Kerry that introduces legislation of this nature? What about the other
legislation like #3 or #9 on this list?

Try #26, #82 or #91 as well.

I'd be concerned if the _only_ legislation JK introduced was about
reducing tariffs on certain types of sporting equipment, but the full
record shows different.
