But at least he doesn’t have to worry about yanking out his hair!
But he does have to worry about that “snoot full” cause his snoot takes a lot to fill!
If this gets legs, might be time to get him out of Congress for that kind of fascism. We'll see.

Excerpt——”On this particular Tuesday, Brian Cohen is in his windowless warren, pulling together yet another report, this one on prescription costs for seniors in New York. Costco is beating the government’s new Medicare benefit by a long shot.
In his previous life, Cohen, 38, was an MIT scientist; here, he is the quintessential Waxman staffer. He could double his salary in the private sector. Instead, he works at a desk just big enough for a computer, a family picture and a banana. He says he does it because he believes he’s performing a public service.
Though most staff research is issued in the congressman’s name, this report will be released under the name of Rep. Carolyn Maloney, Democrat from New York; Waxman won’t be mentioned.
It is an idea the congressman came up with to expand his reach while in the minority. Any lawmaker in Congress can request a study tailor-made for a particular district. Waxman’s staff plugs in local figures; the same model can produce as many as 100 different analyses. Local newspapers usually pick them up and a spotlight is trained on an issue the White House or majority party prefers not to highlight. Cohen has done close to 1,000 of them.”——
Parsing his words, I suspect that the investigation is based on something else other than the transcripts from their shows. Maybe tapes. Or maybe it's just Limbaugh he's investigating. In any event, you can bet that Waxman's comment is a lie in some regard.
His staff checks the FR.
I like Rush’s comment: We should look at this the way the Dems always look at Pubbies — it’s not specifics of the particular allegation, but the charge itself.
Rush did not mention Rather’s “evidence” against W for his national guard service, but that and other examples are what he is talking about: Its not the evidence but the charge.
“In his statement, Waxman called on the Spectator to “immediately retract the item and apologize for the confusion its fictitious report has caused.”
As soon as you retract your slander of Rush! Henry Waxman, The Wizard of Ooze!
Watch the memo appear. Then all hell breaks loose and Waxman gets “Craiged”.
Well, it really depends on your definition of “investigate.” We’ll just get some think tank to print a “study” about how dangerous he is and use it to push the Fairness Doctrine. Then Nancy Pelosi can give a speech about how it’s “finally” time to crack down.
Just because Waxman isn’t doing it doesn’t mean it isn’t being done.
There are bushels of hair in those caverns...er, nostrils.
I strongly suspect Waxman is raising hell with his own staff right now about the leak that forced him to lie....(chuckle)
Stop you’re going to get me in trouble cackling out loud!
The Great One, a.k.a. Mark Levin, has already threatened to sue him.........FOR MILLIONS!
What Waxman is accused of is an abuse of power. Time to get him under oath.
If Waxman’s staff monitors FR as someone up the thread said, I may be in trouble too.....
None of you people dares go "nose-to-nose" with the Waxman!!!
