I was thinking that someone would post a picture of Howard Dean or perhaps Harry Reid. But Waxman is a better choice now that I think about it. I mean he's not just a rat but he looks like a rat.

I've pondered that exact thought with regard to a lot of Congresscritters. Fwank, Schumer, Dodd, Boxer, Feinstein, Rangle, Pelosi, Reid, Nadler....the list is seemingly endless....
