McCotter Blasts Bush for Not Calling Back Congress

I just got this via Twitter from Robert Bluey. Republican House Policy Committee Chairman Thaddeus McCotter (Mich.) really let Bush have it with both barrels:

McCotter, known for his frank and sometimes unusual political opinions, was not pleased with that decision. His memo stated, “Today, in his final term, the wildly unpopular President George W. Bush boarded Air Force One bound for the Beijing Olympics and a meeting with his chum Hu Jintao, the dapper ruler of a nuclear armed, communist dictatorship. … Perhaps our Compassionate Conservative-in-Chief will bring our absent Democrat Congress some ‘Made in (communist) China’ souvenir t-shirts: ‘Bush went to Beijing and all I got was this lousy five week, paid vacation.’ ”

The memo ends, “Bon Voyage, Mr. Bush! House Republicans will fight on for America!”

Man, that is SWEET! We could use a few more with that kind of spirit.

By the way, here is Eric Cantor’s petition to Call Back Congress, just in case you haven’t signed it yet.
