Dems Launch 300 Investigations In 100 Days

Posted on July 6, 2007

Utilizing the prevailing theory if they put enough lines in the water, they are bound to catch at least 1 fish, Congress is pulling out all the stops in order to find ANYTHING that can be construed as improper. A report out of Washington from Yahoo News quotes White House Spokesman Scott Stanzel as saying, “They’ve launched over 300 investigations, had over 350 requests for documents and interviews and they have had over 600 oversight hearings in just about 100 days.” Talk about overkill.

Am I calling the Congressional investigations into the Bush Administration a fishing expedition? You bet I am. It actually more resembles as witch hunt than anything else. How far is Chuck Schumer, John Conyers and the rest willing to go? Are they willing to bring back the dunking tanks? How far is too far?

It seems awful curious that the very people on Capital Hill who oppose coerced interrogation methods when questioning the enemies of this country are more than willing to torture the nation itself by holding these seemingly endless investigations into nothing. Every day, members of the Bush Administration trudge up to “The Hill” to answer questions posed by a vindictive Congress. When is it going to end?!?

I predict that this endless witch hunt will come back to haunt those in charge in Congress. They are not accomplishing anything of substance, just holding hearings. The people see that they are bogged down in revenge and not the country’s business. Remember, all 435 House Seats and 1/3 of the Senate seats are up for grabs next November. If the people see no accomplishments those who are enjoying their razor thin majority will be out of a job come January 2009.

One can only hope.
