104th Congress Takes Power

The 104th Congress assumed Control on Jan 4. Democrats take power away from the previous GOP Representatives. According to NPR, this Congress has more Jews than it does Episcopalians-- a first in American history. The House and Senate Jews (all but three being Democrats) are also more liberal and wealthier than other Representatives on average. The new Democratic House Speaker promised to lead "the most honest Congress in history"... and then proceeded to break her promise to allow anyone other than Democrats to offer amendments. (The more things change, the more they remain the same.) See Chick's THE MAD MACHINE.
