Applesauce
Pat Cunningham offers an unabashedly liberal perspective on national politics. A note of caution: The language gets a litttle salty on some of the sites to which this blog links. So, don’t say you weren’t warned. By the way, this blog’s name is inspired by the Will Rogers quote, “All politics is applesauce.”

Don Manzullo, the conservative Republican who represents the Rockford area in the House of Representatives, has broken ranks with his party to vote for Judiciary Committee hearings on an impeachment resolution against President Bush.

UPDATE: Manzullo SAYS his intention actually was to kill the impeachment resolution.

UPDATE II:  HERE’s Manzullo at greater length on the reason for his vote to refer the impeachment resolution to committee.

The guy with the Harvard law degree is an “elitist,” and these two guys brag about academic mediocrity (or worse)
