The U.S. House of Representatives and Pugilism


Back on Jan. 30, 1798, Representatives Matthew Lyon of Vermont and Roger Griswold took to the fists and initiated the first House of Representatives brawl.

Maybe, that's how things should be settled in our current Congress. A good ol' pay-per-view brawl on C-Span...Tom DeLay vs. Trent Lott...winner takes all.
