Pelosi Names New Head Of Intelligence Committee

Speaker-to-be Nancy Pelosi tabs Rep. Silvestre Reyes, D-Texas, for the job. As Mary Katharine Ham writes:

Well, it ain’t Alcee Hastings, which is kind of a downer when we’re talking about entertainment value, but a major plus when we’re talking security of the country. I’ll take security in that choice.

Indeed^TM. She also has some thoughts on his voting record–and nepotism. As MKH writes, “Funny how we never heard much abou this stuff until after Dems took control”.

Go figure.
