We love Texas congressman Joe Barton. And this video clip demonstrates why.
Waxman was pissed that companies like AT&T, Caterpillar, John Deere and Verizon blamed ObamaCare for billions of dollars in unexpected charges, so the little weasel ordered them to appear before Congress to explain themselves.
Congressional intimidation at its finest.
Apparently, Waxman didn’t realize that the companies are required to make those announcements as a result of Sarbanes-Oxley regulations that he had supported.
So Barton went down on the floor of the House and, shall we say, straightened out Waxman.
You go, Joe.

waxman should go see pelosi's doctor for some good old plastic surgery.
i mean come on, children could get lost in that mans nostrils.
Nicely done Rep. Barton, calling out Commissar Waxman like that.
Like Michelle Bachman said a year ago in the floor of the House, the way this administration and this congress are acting now, this is a gangster government.
Smearing, intimidation and persecution of political enemies and dissenters.
One minor issue though...the 1st amendment (or any other amendment) in the Constitution does not "give" us anything. The Bill of Rights is supposed to guarantee our pre-existing rights. Although it's been used as toilet paper by the government as of late.
But this is a constitutional right, right? Never mind, now that The Greatest President in History has been elected, it is non-PC to state anything but the accepted party line, fall into lockstep and shut up!
Waxman the weasle , lives on his own island , California .
I heard Dennnis Miller on Bill O'Reilly describe Waxman as a Ratatouile look alike. I still laugh when I think about the resemblence he's a big rat, too.
Beautifully said, Rep. Barton!
Weasel Waxman. Nice title. Congrats.
