93. I was there, at waxman's office. Everyone was pleased with Waxman's
thoughtfulness. he listened. he heard. HE also explained that he doesn't think he should be the one leading for impeachment because he is the one leading the investigations whihc may lead to impeachemnt, and he would get no cooperation for his investigations. In summary we were all quite pleased with Mr Waxman's response. We all signed a letter right there insisting that he read up on inehrent contempt. He also promised to watch the BIll Moyer's tape this week, which he has and hasn't watched yet.
in other words give Waxman hell is just plain wrong. Noone at that protest had an attitude of give him hell. The prevailing attitude was "we need the help of our congressmen right now". he heard that. he said "you ahve given me a lot to think about."
Giving waxman and conyers hell would be not only stupid, it would be really counterproductive. but there are a lot of dems who deserve hell from their people right now.
waxman, not one of them.
