Speaking of the “gang” of six, it seems to me weird that they keep using the word GANG. What comes to mind if you were playing Password? Gang...rape, banger...nothing that sounds too pleasant really. Yet they choose to use the word GANG rather than group or some other less intimidating, less emotionally packed word. Why? My theory is that this is intended to have that edge to it of force, thuggery, and “we don’t care what you think.” Indeed these gangs in the Senate do keep raping our country. We should call them gang-rapists. Two can play at the word sniping. OR we can just go along and keep being really polite and see how that works out. Hmph.
Rush reminded everyone listening today that this usage of “gang of ____” started with the ChiComs when Mrs. Mao and the other 3 of “the gang of four” took over China from Chairman Mao. You observation was also quite correct, however.
Oh and btw, they were foiled in Peking just as they will be foiled in DC.
