In one of the videos released over the weekend by the Pentagon, there is the weird scene of Osama Bin Laden watching television with a remote control in his hand.

For a few seconds at one point, there is video on the TV screen of the floor of the U.S. Senate during a vote - I can tell that scene from anywhere, having watched it so many times over the years.

Also for a quick second, there is the shot of a Senator sitting in the chair, presiding over the Senate.

The timeline on this tape is unknown. It seems unlikely that he was watching C-SPAN2, but rather it was a quick clip from a news program on one of the Arabic language news channels.

So, who is the (un)lucky Senator that is on the screen with Bin Laden watching? It's a woman - so that eliminates a pretty good chunk of the Senate - but it's not fully clear who that is.
