1. What kind of oversight?
The executive is a separate branch. How would Grassley respond if President Obama said the WH was going to exercise oversight over the US Senate?

9. They can't get over
the fact that they lost. They will have to be dragged kicking and screaming away from being in control.

4. it is really fucking scary that these dipshits
can do whatever they want with our money! I have heard the stupidest plans come out of their mouths. They just totally disregard what economists have said will work. Yesterday Thune had an ammendment to redirect the whole bill into tax cuts! They will never compromise! Obama needs to realize this now!

6. No no no, Mr. Grassley. You don't seem to understand. You see...
thanks to Mr. Bush, the office of the President can do anything it damn pleases. We don't need no stinking oversight.... see?

7. To be fair, Grassley expressed frustration with the Bush admin several times
Edited on Sat Feb-07-09 04:07 PM by emulatorloo
in the last four years for their lack of transparency and unwillingness to provide information to congress.

8. Grassley needs his personal finances investigated, along with
his mail, his laptop, who he sees in his off time, what books he reads, which websites he visits.

Invoke the sweeping measures given to the President under the Patriot Act.

After all, we are a nation at war and he is seeking privileged information of the office of the Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces.

He must be a terrist operative.
