If Senators were commenting on it then it was real.

  > If Senators were commenting on it then it was real. Senators comment on things that aren't real (either because of erroneous beliefs about what is real or because they see political advantage in commenting even though they correctly believe it to be unreal) all the time. Senators are, as a class, neither omniscient nor omnibenevolent.

    As they say in DC, though, "perception is reality."
