If you'd bother to read the entire article, you would see that the group travelled in MAY. In addition, it isn't clear whether this is the Texas House members - it is likely it is from the way the article is worded.

So what if they traveled in May. As for whether or not it's clear which House members to which the article refers, I think the article's second and third paragraphs make it clear enough:

In fact, some Republican members of the House, upset by what they call the administration's seeming lack of concern for border security, are preparing to hold investigative hearings in San Diego and Laredo, Texas, early next month.

Members of the House Subcommittee on International Terrorism and Nonproliferation hope to expose serious security flaws that could potentially lead to terrorist attacks in the country, said Rep. Ted Poe, R-Texas, who is a member of the panel and has pushed for the hearings.

OK, now retreat back to your next prepared position.

Why do you and so many others around here feel the need to be a**holes?

Hey, you were the one talking about the Congressional picnic YESTERDAY as a means to show this was bogus:

I don't trust honesty of the article due to a claim in it that the congressmen had to travel to Washington to try to meet with GWB. Makes no sense. The annual congressional picnic was yesterday.

And now you pretend the details don't matter? Like I said, retreat to your next prepared position.

Why do you and so many others around here feel the need to be a**holes?

I guess that one got to the core of what you were up to, eh?

Why do you feel the need to engage in such knee-jerk defenses of Bush when he is so wrong on this issue, including doing a 180-degree spin on your own damn talking point? It is a Constitutionally-defined role of the President to defend this country from invasion. We have foreign troops coming into this country and threatening law enforcement officers. And all we get from Bush and Chertoff is "What, me worry?"
