An entire generation learned how a bill becomes a law thanks to "Schoolhouse Rock," but the old "I'm Just a Bill" video doesn't fully capture how lawmaking works today. So on Tuesday night's "Daily Show," Jon Stewart used the current inaction in Congress as the inspiration for a new version of the classic tune. The new rendition is called "How a Bill Becomes an Ad," and it perfectly captures how absolutely nothing ever gets done in Washington.

We have been talking about getting married. He has never been married before (no kids) and I am gun-shy, to say the least. I own my home, my son is happy, and I am trying to be extremely careful about our future. Last week Ben took me out for a drink.
