Comments: House Ways And Means Committee Chairman Bill Thomas Retiring

Even if Thomas' district gets another righty (surely inevitable for Red Kern county), that new rep won't be chair of the committee.

I've always wondered how Rats can tell when to leave a sinking ship.

I really hate the Congressional lobbying culture, and retribution isn't an attractive personal attribute, but IF the Dems retake the Congress I'm mostly hoping that they have their own K Street Project that shuts out any former Republican Congressmen and Senators that take up lobbying. Fair's fair, right?

28 years is too damn long to serve in Congress.
