A shout-out to Chairman Waxman and the Dems of the Oversight and Govt. Reform Cmte.
Seems like they've been doing the work of the entire Congress. Just imagine how things would be if the other committees similarly had their shit together. :bounce:

For a rundown of all the hearings, past and upcoming, visit this link
http://oversight.house.gov/schedule.asp

Henry A. Waxman, California, Chairman
Rep. Tom Lantos, California
Rep. Edolphus Towns, New York
Rep. Paul E. Kanjorski, Pennsylvania
Rep. Carolyn B. Maloney, New York
Rep. Elijah E. Cummings, Maryland
Rep. Dennis J. Kucinich, Ohio
Rep. Danny K. Davis, Illinois
Rep. John F. Tierney, Massachusetts
Rep. Wm. Lacy Clay, Missouri
Rep. Diane E. Watson, California
Rep. Stephen F. Lynch, Massachusetts
Rep. Brian Higgins, New York
Rep. John A. Yarmuth, Kentucky
Rep. Bruce L. Braley, Iowa
Rep. Eleanor Holmes Norton, District of Columbia
Rep. Betty McCollum, Minnesota
Rep. Jim Cooper, Tennessee
Rep. Chris Van Hollen, Maryland
Rep. Paul W. Hodes, New Hampshire
Rep. Christopher S. Murphy, Connecticut
Rep. John P. Sarbanes, Maryland
Rep. Peter Welch, Vermont

And I deliberately don't include the Repukes on this committee as all I've seen them do is bitch and moan. Oh, and occasionally insult bereaved families :grr:

5. I love ya! Thanks for this!
My group 11th Congressional District Patriots for Peace and Accountability is meeting with the Government Reform Committee next week. Our congressman is the ranking member but we might be able to get some Marylanders to join us and ask for the Majority side for investigation for impeachment.

Anybody here game?
