The Nuts Find Their Tongues

From coast to coast before the election we heard from "moderate" Democrats about how we needed a change - and no sir, they were not liberals. Meanwhile, the liberal nuts who own the Democrat Party were silently hiding... biding their time...

Well here is a little message for all the Independents who voted for Moderate Dems, and for all the Conservatives who pouted at home on election day: The nuts are back out.

Barbara Boxer is taking over the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee and is already planning her hearings on global warming. Don't expect expanded drilling for oil and cheaper gas prices anytime soon. Do expect more environmental regulations and higher prices for automobiles - and maybe an SUV tax.

When Democrat Representative Bennie Thompson takes over the House Homeland Security Committee, he plans to revisit the law mandating 700 miles of fence along the U.S.-Mexico border. Interpretation: The border is open for business...

The gay lobby is now more powerful than it has ever been before - now that Ms. Pelosi runs the House of Representatives. Get ready to hear about hate-speech laws and their effects on tax-exempt status... Stuff like that.

John Conyers will chair the House Judiciary Committee, and though Dems have said that Bush will not be impeached, Conyers will not be able to resist hearings into the possibility. He also owes the growing Muslim population back in Michigan - and who knows where that will lead.

House Ways and Means- Charles Rangel - enough said. Kiss tax cuts and the economy good-bye and get ready for the mainstream media to blame it on Bush.

Committee on Government Reform – Henry Waxman - During the Clinton era, it was Henry’s job as ranking Democrat on the Government Reform committee to obstruct Republicans’ investigations in the scandal-ridden Clinton Administration - but now he promises to open up investigations on a number of fronts targeting the Bush Administration. That's nice.

I'm not sure my friends in Kokomo, who sent a moderate Democrat to Washington, realize that they also voted for Pelosi, Reid, and their band of big-government-Leftist nuts. I'm not sure they intended to empower people who in no way share their values. But they foolishly did.

All those moderate Dems in Washington... with no power.
