"The English language has some wonderfully anthropomorphic collective nouns for various groups of animals.

We are familiar with Herd of cows, a Flock of chickens, a School of fish, and a Gaggle of geese.

However, less widely known is a Pride of lions, a Murder of crows (as well as their cousins the rooks and ravens), an Exaltation of larks, and a Parliament of owls, presumably because thet look so wise.

Now consider a group of baboons. They are the loudest most dangerous, most obnoxious, most viciously aggressive, and least intelligent of all of the larger primates. And what is the collective noun for a group of baboons?

Believe it or not... A Congress!!!

This pretty much explains the things that come out of Washington!!!
