I, too have been wondering at the apparent timidity of the Republicans in Congress. Admittedly, the American public (at least the Moonbat contingent) has a very short memory when it comes to things like this, and might not 'remember' come election time, but the opportunity to hammer off chunks of the Clinton 'base' now seems too good to pass up.

All I keep thinking of are the 900+ FBI files when Republicans in Congress seem to shrink from letting the Rats have it.

So, the next question comes to mind. How many of the Republicans up there are compromised by what is in those files that they do not want to leak out? How many are being held in thrall by information which was supposed to remain confidential and was illegally acquired? Just whose files were stolen anyway?

Sometimes that seems the only logical explanation.

Maybe some house cleaning is needed on both sides of the aisle.

Maybe? ;)

What we need is a real grass roots fight like they did in PA after that raise the legislators gave themselves.

"Maybe some house cleaning is needed on both sides of the aisle."

Absolutely -- as is the case with the Abramoff(sp?) situation, let the chips fall where they may. Above all, I want honest representation, not same-old, same-old with a meaningless (R) after their names.

Unfortunately, I see little chance of the same standards being applied to both sides of the aisle. Similar shady behavior will be painted in the media with different brushes for the Dems and the Pubbies. Think Harry Reid is in any danger? No way, pure as the driven snow. Just ask the NYT.

My only hope is that our children are engaged and understanding what goes on. I'm showing mine...
