The Levin brothers are sitting together, one from the House and the other from the Senate. They appear to be Disney escapees from the set of Snow White. Grumpy and Dopy or perhaps Grumpy and Sneezy. Hard to tell them apart.

Can someone tell me why Lloyd Ogylvie, former chaplain of the Senate, is in attendance this evening?
