Here's direct evidence that American's can't believe the mainstream corporate media white-wash of the GOP ticket. The radical right wingNUTS are still swirling in Congress.

At this stage we can be thankful for the Democratic majority. There are not likely to be divisive and spectacular public hearings, grandstanding by wingNUT House sub-committee chairmen, or committee staff "leaking" inflammatory material to "faux-news” and other propaganda arms of the GOP.

In addition to the Senate Resolution there are three competing House Resolutions. No surprise that Marilyn Musgrave is a co-sponsor of two, or that the third has no co-sponsors. What is surprising is that neither Lamborn nor Tancredo have signed-on to either bill.

H.J.Res 22 has 22 co-sponsors and was assigned to a sub-committee on March 1 Link. MM's endorsement will assure her donations from the fear and smear crowd.

The second measure is a more accurate accounting of the wingNUT population of the House. AKA - a target list for House members deserving strong opposition.

H.J.Res 89 boasts 86 co-sponsors Link (including, of course, MM but not the other two Colorado radicals). It has only moved as far as the House Judiciary Committee. Without a sub-committee designation it's going no-where in 2008.

Bottom Line - We clearly know who the backwards hate-mongers are in Colorado and in the US Congress. The rosters of HJRes 22 and HJRes 89 co-sponsors provide a clear link to research the Democratic opponents and support their campaigns.
