House GOP smacks down Democrat censors

Via Roll Call, House Republicans fight back against the gag rules of the majority:
House Republicans on Wednesday filed a resolution that blasts Democrats for preventing GOP Members from sending constituents a mailing that criticizes the majority’s health care proposal.
The resolution cites the “failure of the Democratic Members of the Franking Commission to ensure that the Commission’s Democratic staff carries out its important responsibilities in a professional, fair, and impartial manner.”
The dispute centers on a GOP chart that illustrates the organization of the Democratic health care plan with a convoluted maze of government offices and programs. Republicans are pressing to use taxpayer dollars to mail the chart to constituents, but their request continues to be reviewed by the franking commission.
“The Democrats’ plan would mean more bureaucracy, more taxes, more mandates, more government involvement in your life and fewer jobs in this struggling economy. They’re trying to restrict Members of Congress from showing it to their constituents, and that’s just wrong,” House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio) said.
“I think the American people deserve the truth, and that’s why this resolution is important,” Boehner said.

The Dems must fight during the recess to show an electorate that elected these clowns that Obamacare is the best thing since sliced bread. Fool me once……..
There, Roll Call, I fixed your bias for you. You’re welcome.
