More (BIG!) Yahoo Watch: Zoe Lofgren

I just watched clips of the House Judiciary Committee's Immigration Subcommittee meeting at which Stephen Colbert testified - in character.
It was not just bizarre. it was offensive. And, it was unspeakably stupid. If Lofgren wanted to further damage the image of Congress - and hurt her party's chances in November - she achieved her goal. She owes the American people an apology and pronto. Speaker Pelosi should consider very strong sanctions, very strong, such as stripping Lofgren of her chairmanship.
