Whatever.
In today's Washington Post, Dan Froomkin writes about Bush's response (or lack thereof) to our current financial crisis. In the article, Froomkin quotes Speaker Nancy Pelosi:
Speaking to reporters on Wednesday after a meeting with committee chairmen about the crisis, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Democrat of California, attacked the Bush administration, saying, 'Because of the inattention or a decision on their part to have crony capitalism in our country, Americans across the country are feeling the pain of this.'
She said the committees headed by Representatives Barney Frank of Massachusetts and Henry A. Waxman of California would hold hearings to 'examine the Bush administration's mismanagement of financial market regulation and how it led us to this remarkable failure.'
Mr. Waxman, chairman of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, said his committee would examine 'what was happening with the people who were in charge in the Bush administration and in the regulatory agencies headed by people appointed by President Bush.'"
Rough translation:
Blah blah blah blah BLAH blah blah blah blah blah BLAH BLAH blah!
Anyone else sick of hearing the "Democratic" congress' empty threats. Whenever I hear them talk about "hearings" and "subpoenas" and "getting to the bottom of this" I get these sudden flashbacks to the movie the Iron Giant when Kent Mansley is threatening General Rogard with such terrifying actions as "preparing a memo" and "having the memo distributed!"
Blah blah blah blah blah...
Can we get a real congress now?
