Capitol countersign is incredibly deep , offering wonderfully organized snapshot of a Holy Scripture ( or musical phrase ) , break down by time , absolute frequency , political party , and even the exact moment of speech in which it was used . Any variety of trend frequence like this is groovy , but when it ’s our country ’s lawmakers , it ’s of particular note of hand . So what ’s been on their tech agenda over the year ?
Internet porn ? A handful of times , but only by Republicans .

And of course , Apple versus Mac .
This tool has a lot of serious , powerful uses for political analysis . But for now , go ahead and get into member . You know you ’re going to anyway . [ Sunlight Foundation ]
