If you're a U.S. senator, it pays to carry your ID. On Tuesday, a Capitol cop asked Idaho Sen. Jim Risch to produce his ID, after Risch went past a security check while trying to catch a train. A portion of the interchange, as blogged at thehill.com, a Beltway insider news site: “Do you have an ID?” the officer demanded. “Oh yes, I have an ID,” Risch responded, irritation creeping into his voice while he pulled out his wallet and flashed his senator’s ID card. “Will you remember me now?” asked Risch, who has been a member of the Senate for two and a half years/Kevin Richert, Statesman.

Question: Have you ever known U.S. Sen. Jim Risch to get testy?
