Daylight Savings Time extension might be the greatest accomplishment of the GOP Congress

How bad was the do-nothing Republican Congress of 2005-2006?

It very well may be that their greatest accomplishment was a 2005 law that extends daylight savings time an additional seven weeks, starting tomorrow.

It's smart to adjust our work day to when the sun is actually shining, and I'm glad the Republican Congress got this done, but it is sad that it's hard to think of a different bill passed in the last two years that outshines the pragmatic impact of extending daylight.
