  H.Res. 505, calling for investigation of the White House Iraq Group, almost makes it out of the International Relations Committee
From GOP Whitewash of White House Continues on The Huffington Post:
The Republican majority on the House International Relations Committee today again refused to investigate its own party. Barely.
With a 4-member advantage on the IR committee over the Democrats, the GOP managed to hang on to a 25 to 23 vote win, defeating H.Res. 505, Rep. Dennis Kucinich's attempt to actually investigate the secret activities of the WHIG, his Resolution of Inquiry (ROI) to look into the White House Iraq Group.
More than 100 House Democrats joined Kucinich in cosponsoring this resolution, even before it never made it to the floor!
Only 2 Republicans stood up for finding out the truth--Rep. Jim Leach of Iowa and Rep. Ron Paul of Texas. [...]
ONLY? The fact that any Republicans supported any Resolution by Kucinich is enough to strike fear into the electronic pump that replaced "Dick" Cheney's heart. And the fact that a Resolution by Kucinich got unanimous support from the Democrats on the Committee must be striking some fear into those in the stay-the-course pro-war wing of the Donkey Party.
Of course, because this Resolution had the audacity to mention the White House Iraq Group by name, the WHIG Subsidiary that publishes what used to be America's Liberal Paper of Record, failed to mention these proceedings at all.

The White House Iraq Group (WHIG), with members Rove, Card, Rice, Libby, Matalin, Hughes, Hadley et al., is the group that sold us the Iraq War with false information, and tried to silence one prominent critic by exposing a CIA agent's identity.
WHIGGATE is the scandal that will bring [or should have brought] down the Bush/Cheney Administration.
WHIGGATE UPDATE is a clearing house for information about this group and its activities.

According to the results of free non-scientific online tests, TBL found that he was "Existentialist", "Communist", and "A Grammar God," i.e., if he were a short wall-eyed Frenchman rather than a 6'3" blond American, he would be constantly mistaken for Jean-Paul Sartre!
