Chaffetz is visibly orgasmic at the thought of investigating a "target rich environment" that he envisions lasting years and years.
My serious question is: Is Madam President required to comply or appear at his "hearings"? Or, can she raise a middle finger and tell them, "Sorry, I'm very busy doing MY JOB running the country and I don't have time for your grandstanding, bullshit games"?

(3,425 posts)That is a terrific site to check out members of congress and how they spend their budgets. I checked my local congressman, a tea party guy and found him paying consultant fees to a LLC that had ties to him. I even wrote to a consumer advocate group, I think it was Common Cause but it was a long time ago. They wrote back and asked for more details but never followed up. However, that site is a great place to start.
