That certainly didn't take long!













Not even a week into their return to power and promise of a new day, the Dummycrats have departed from two areas of their agenda....

House Democrats campaigned on a promise to implement the recommendations of the September 11 commission, but now say they will not enact all of them.

The recommendation to place all intelligence agencies under the Defense Department "is not on the table," said Majority Leader Steny H. Hoyer, Maryland Democrat.

Another obstacle to enacting all the commission reforms as promised is the formula by which federal anti-terrorism money is distributed across the country.

House Democrats are confident they can pass a bill in which funds would be distributed based on risk.

...Another recommendation unlikely to be fully implemented is tasking one House committee with the responsibility of overseeing both intelligence operations and funding.

Now they won't be working a full 5 day week either...

Democrats ran to expand the work week in the House to 5 days.

"Culture Shock on Capitol Hill: House to Work 5 Days a Week" front-paged the WASHINGTON POST in December.

Majority leader Steny Hoyer said members of the House will be expected in the Capitol for votes each week by 6:30 p.m. Monday and will finish their business about 2 p.m. Friday.

Explained the POST: "Forget the minimum wage. Or outsourcing jobs overseas. The labor issue most on the minds of members of Congress yesterday was their own: They will have to work five days a week starting in January."

A Hoyer press release obtained by the DRUDGE REPORT boldly declares: "Monday, January 8, 2007: The House is not in session."


DUMMYCRATS....Do as I say, not as I doodoo!
