We're about a month into the teatard/Rethug-led House of Representatives session, so let's pause for a moment to reflect on some of the more flagrant reactionary items being pushed by this nihilist bunch (most of which is going nowhere fast):
-- passing a bill to repeal the health care reform law;
-- stopping Wall Street reform act by proposing defunding of the Securities and Exchange Commission;
-- blocking Federal aid for Planned Parenthood while redefining rape to make abortion more difficult;
-- defunding public radio and TV;
-- taking a meat ax to social program discretionary spending, while maintaining Pentagon and farm subsidy spending intact;
-- eliminating the Environmental Protection Agency.
If there's been a more far-right, troglodyte House in the past 50 years, we'd like to hear about it.
