to build the case for their call for a phased withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq

This is NOT their job or their call. They can fund or de-fund the war effort, period.

and for possible action against defense contractors found to have wasted billions in federal funds.

Talk about the pot calling the kettle black!!!

Why the American people sit back and let these charades continue, wasting millions/billions of dollars is beyond me.

Well, stick with me, kid. It isn't much fun, but it's educational.

The MSM calls the leftwing online community the "blogosphere" (Huffington Post, etc.). I wrote "blogoswamp" on a whim because it seemed more accurate.

"Moonbats" (usually spelled with only two o's) are sanity-deprived radical leftists such as Cindy Sheehan. A "barking moonbat" is a shade less sane than a plain "moonbat".

A Leftist, BTW, is shade more insane than a Liberal. Liberals typically believe in our system of democracy and want to "reform" it. Leftists want to tear everything to establish communism or anarchism or multiculturalism or whatever their kink of the moment may be.

The blueprint for the invasion of Iraq was drawn up by Clinton's national security experts. The Senate that voted for war was Democrat, led by Tom Daschle. Leading Democrats were agitating for war in Clinton's last two years. And any investigation--with Republicans on the committee--will reveal the real weapons of mass destruction evidence, and terrorist links, rather than the cover-up the news media has run.

Hiya, Justa. Hardly ever see you around lately but I know you're busy most of the time. Hope it wasn't quite so cold this week at WR, last week sounded like a real tooth chatterer, (is that a word). :-)

I can't believe these moonbat Dems, they're all nuts!

Your not the only one that is incensed. I don't want my tax dollars wasted on these stupid investigations! I am so angry that this party that reelects crooks,and has a rapist in the oval office as a President is now going to be ''investigating'' the ''poor treatment'' the ''innocent''prisoners are receiving at GITMO.(They've all gained 25 to 30 pounds from the ''terrible food'' they are served every day! Why don't the RATS have the prisoners at Gitmo move in with them , since they feel so sorry for them? I've had it with the miserable RATS!

"Incoming Chairmen Ready to Investigate"

However, none of the worthless slugs are ready to solve any of society's pressing issues.

Today I passed someone wearing one of those buttons that reads "I Do Not Consent To A Search". Can you imagine how such a person would be characterized during WW2? (Answer: As one of those anti-Semitic 'America Firsters' who tried to keep us out of the war in Europe, which had nothing to do with us, since Germany didn't attack us, etc.)

That is the kind of mentality that this crap appeals to, those who think this is all a Republican charade, that we created Al Qaeda, etc.

Yep, remember, there's not a dimes worth of difference between Republicans and Democrats...so don't vote or vote third party.

The difference is smacking the nation between the eyes...and some folks still don't get it.

This hardly constitutes "breaking news." We've known they were gonna do this since the morning of Nov 8.

Saw a similar article at the hideous Nation called The Waiting Game

In the new Congress there will be much Iraq-related activity, but the Democrats will present no master plan to remove America from the debacle. They will mount a flurry of hearings, scrutinize the war budget and introduce differing bills. Senators Carl Levin, Joseph Biden and Jay Rockefeller--incoming chairs, respectively, of the Armed Services, Foreign Relations and Intelligence committees--plan an array of hearings. Levin aims to examine the military strategy in Iraq. He might continue his quest to dig up information on the Pentagon cell, created by former Under Secretary Douglas Feith, that funneled misleading intelligence to the White House before the war. Biden, who has proposed turning Iraq into a federation of three autonomous regions, intends to examine alternate policies. Rockefeller is looking to complete the long-delayed Phase II inquiry of the Administration's use (or abuse) of prewar intelligence.

On the House side, Jack Murtha, who will take over the defense appropriations subcommittee, wants to probe misuse of reconstruction spending. Henry Waxman, next chair of the Government Reform Committee, will zero in on fraud, waste and abuse in military contracting. Tom Lantos, incoming chair of the International Relations Committee, also wants to probe the reconstruction failure. And Ike Skelton, in line to head Armed Services, has vowed to examine the strain the war has put on the military and the adequacy of assistance to the troops.
