(160 posts)DeFazio often votes more like an independent. His justification must be in protest to a stupid program and a stupid use of executive privilege. I'm sure he would have voted against Bushs' AG's for Plame and Attorney-Purge if the democrats had had the muscle/balls to pull the same stunts. Not my favorite name to see on the list, but I support his vote for a more transparent government, if that's what it is!

(4,310 posts)is working on. One of the Congressmen that walked out today
called this "overkill." Seems like an awful lot of people in Congress
from both sides of the isle want Holder to shut-up and be shut-out.
Keep thinking of Spitzer, prepared to investigate some of the irregularities
on Wall Street and the next thing you know he's doing the perp walk with the
wife for something he did in his personal life which was none of our business.
"Overkill" is a perfect word to describe what is happening to Holder.

(36,130 posts)what could these Democrats gain from piling on? If they're willing to play these stunt games while drawing a salary, this has to be litmus test of their being blue dogs. They're wasting taxpayer money putting on this show and should be eliminated from the party.
Racist people in these reps' home districts are being pandered to in a most disgusting way, and they'd all better get behind this president or just admit they're Republicans and stop wasting taxpayer money on such stupidity.

(331 posts)They must be taking in many campaign contributions from the NRA. You are correct about racist people. I live in WV. I'm not working for any of these Dems that oppose the President.
