16. "a group of renegade mongrels in a basement in the Capitol"

is referring to Rep. Conyer's meeting on the DSM. The Dems were FORCED to meet in a small room in the "basement" because the One Party State Republicans REFUSED to allow them to meet anywhere else.

Furthermore, it wasn't a "hearing" because the Republicans wouldn't allow "official" status to Conyers.

Hope you read Dana Milbank's totally snarky and disrespectful report on the "meeting" in the Washington Post on the 17th. From the WoPo to Limbaugh's mouth.

As AmPol says, "Flush twice, it's a long way to Sally Quinn's place!" Love the graphic. http://www.americanpolitics.com/20050619punditpap.html
