Dana Milbank's column in the Washington Post spotlights Rethuglican rank hypocrisy over "minority rights" in the House. After years of riding roughshod over the Democratic minority, the Rethugs want to play nice. They had the nerve to use Speaker Pelosi's minority rights proposal from 2004, which Hastert never had the courtesy to respond to. A prominent whiner is the pint-sized Rep. Patrick McHenry (R-NC), who you'll recall tried to insinuate that there was a Democratic plot behind the Foley scandal. All is forgiven. Riiiight.
