This, and the protests from John Day against the Aryan Nations, makes my day!  Guts and heart -- an unbeatable combination . . .

> Rep. Weiner on House Floor: ‘Republicans Are Wholly Owned Subsidiary of
> the Insurance Industry’
> 
> Finally, a Democrat tells the truth about the Republicans to their faces
> on the floor of the House:
> 
> In a discussion of the Health Insurance Industry Fair Competition Act,
> apparently speaking on Rep. Peter DeFazio’s (D.-OR) time, Weiner laughs
> and says, “You know, you gotta love these Republicans. You guys have
> chutzpah.”
> 
> Then Weiner yells that the Republican Party “are a wholly owned subsidiary
> of the insurance industry.” Some discussion is heard offscreen, which we
> thought was Republicans asking for the Yiddish to be translated, but after
> Weiner bounces around yelling for a while and then repeats the subsidiary
> charge, Rep. Daniel Lundgren (R.-CA) demands he withdraw the remarks.
> 
> Weiner says, “You really don’t want to go here, Mr. Lundgren,” The chair
> sends Weiner to the penalty box.
> 
> This all happens in the first minute. Much fumf-fumf as Weiner prepares to
> revise his remarks. Then, around 2:30, he does so: “Every single
> Republican I have ever met in my entire life is a wholly owned subsidiary
> of the insurance industry!” Then he gets challenged and has to revise
> again.
