I knew the GOP was good at something…

…I just didn’t know what it was. CNN is reporting that the outgoing GOP-controlled 109th Congress was a resounding success at renaming buildings:

…members of Congress can boast significant achievements in at least one area of federal lawmaking -- naming post offices.

Of the 383 pieces of legislation that were signed into law during the two-year 109th Congress, more than one-quarter dealt with naming or renaming federal buildings and structures -- primarily post offices -- after various Americans.
