When this traitorous bunch is gone and the adults regain control, payback will be a b!tch. Let’s hope that’s the case.

"That article is from 2009"

Yes, and with huge implications for today's headlines,

Someone should tweet this to the Kelley File and email Issa a reminder that he needs to fire up his "fierce opposition" to the political use of the census.

The question is no longer "when," but "IF"...this traitorous bunch is ever gone! They will never go quietly nor peacefully - on THAT...you can be sure.

Well, the 2010 Census is 3 years past and the Congressional District boundary lines are already drawn. By the time the next Census rolls around in 2020, Obama will not be in the White House.
