Quiet under the new dome

After a couple months' worth of budget bickering crammed into two or three hours, the Oklahoma legislature has gone home for the year.

One interesting quote, from Todd Hiett (R-Kellyville), the House minority leader: "We think at this point we have had a very successful session, partly for what we accomplished and partly for what we diverted." Sometimes, what you don't do is as important as what you do.
