Do you ever get the feeling you're watching a bunch of 5 year olds?

5 year olds with our money.

[rwgal]

Sure, that will solve all the problems...

[rbmillerjr]

Who will be running the Chamberlain committee on appeasement, pacifism and hate America first?

[A Citizen Reporter]

And they want to change the word formally known as "liberal" to "progressive"?

They ought to call themselves "regressives".

[JSDude1]

The first two are the "ones" that piss me off: renaming them to fit liberal politics..

[PhiKapMom]

Exactly! Spoiled little brats! I swear they are trying to turn back the clock like it was the 80's.

[gcruse]

They're changing the names back to more like they were before the Republicans changed them. I see five year olds on both sides of the aisle.

[Txsleuth]

You have them pegged.

Sheesh...how petty.

[B Knotts]

Symbolism over substance.

[decal]

"Waxman revels in his reputation as a watchdog over the executive branch."

So.....where was The Nosey One from 1993-2001?

[Trajan88]

My 6 yr. old neice has more maturity than some of these folks that call themselves U.S. representatives.

What a joke.

[Revolting cat!]

Yes, these are 5 year olds appeasing other 5 year old, their base. We're doin' sumpin, you know what I'm talkin' 'bout?!

[keepitreal]

The Committee on Education and the Workforce was changed back to its pre-1995 name: The Committee on Dumbing Down Our Children and Workforce Committee

The House Resources Committee is now The House Committee Owned by the Environmentalists

the International Relations Committee is now the We Love the United Nations and France Committee

Rep. Henry Waxman , D-Calif., is chairman of the newly renamed Impeach President Bush Committee, which had been the Government Reform Committee only since 1999

[ikka]

When will they be done re-aranging the deck chairs on the Titanic?

[Revolting cat!]

Surrender and Appeasement Committee

Taxation and Pork Distribution Committee

Wacky Ideeers Committee (Oh wait, scratch that, that's the subcommittee in every Committee.)

[sine_nomine]

Some new committees:

Drunks Against Mad Mothers

Professional Leakers to the New York Times

Professional Leakers to Our Sworn Enemies

[mdittmar]

They're changing the names back to more like they were before the Republicans changed them. I see five year olds on both sides of the aisle.

I agree.

[Revolting cat!]

And the most powerful of all:

White Guilt Committee

But seriously. Here's a potential upside. These crypto-communists, as clever they thnk themselves to be, won't help themselves in the end, and screw up so much in the next two years, that they'll pave a yellow brick road for a conservative candidate for POTUS in 2008. Get on your knees an pray now!

[edpc]

Waxman revels in his reputation as a watchdog over the executive branch.

Shouldn't that be "watchpig".....?

[princess leah]

If only they were so concerned with our well being as they are with their own self-importance!
