It is always entertaining to see what happens when old guard D.C. crosses paths with young gun D.C.
Take, for example, the recent clash between Congressmen Jim McDermott (D-Wash.) and Paul Ryan (R-Wis).
During a Tuesday House Ways and Means Committee hearing on the IRS targeting of conservative groups, Rep. McDermott said that Tea Party groups wouldnt have been scrutinized if they didnt apply for tax-exempt status and engage in the activities they did
Sounds like McDermotts blaming conservative groups for the IRS scandal, no? An amused Paul Ryan seemed to think so.
Ryan scrapped his prepared question and instead chose to respond to the Washington congressmans bewildering characterization of the IRS scandal
Glad Ryan put him in his place.
My guess is that a significant no. of them vote in both states.
McDermott is from Washington State (also home of Patty Murray.) The whole left coast can slide into the ocen as far as I’m concerned.
He doesn't come close to rising high enough in integrity to be a scumbag.
I still hold that ALL DIMocRATS in any position other than rag-gatherer should be waterboarded, ridiculed, shunned and deported. I know that sounds a bit extreme, but think about it...
No doubt about it.
Even if only 5% do, that is enough to decide elections, especially special elections, for bonds etc.
Reagan was a Democrat from California. Is he a scumbag?
Many of them have a warped moral code, like that Richardson idiot in Ohio.
If I saw McDermott in a bar, I’d kick his butt!
‘Nuff said...
When an earthquake devastates McDermott’s district (and it will); don’t come crying to conservatives.
Funny MSNBC said he was a Hero today and that Ryan was an Ass.? Go figure.
In her dreams, Nixon only dreamed of using such powers. The actual deeds were committed by his cohorts upon fellow elites not actual common folk.
They have a sense of entilement. Because they live or have lived in both places, it belongs to” them.
Saw a bumper sticker in Oregon circa 1980 “Don’t Californicate Oregon”
