Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich yesterday promised to avenge Gregg by holding up the Commerce Department completely:“The idea they would have U.S. Census [controlled by the White House] is such a terrible idea that Republican senators should announce that no member of the Commerce Department will be cleared and approved until they put the census back in the Commerce Department,” Gingrich said.
As Gregg himself has admitted, this issue didn’t play a big role in his decision and these claims are overhyped. “The way it was explained to me is that the Census would still report to the Commerce Secretary, but the White House wanted to have a major interest in the census process also,” he said on CNBC.
While taking a break trying to disprove evolution, Newtie McNoNo wants to avenge Gregg... via more obstructionist tactics. Good move.
I have a feeling it's the American people who are about to become the avengers, and it's not going to be Judd Gregg they're avenging. It will be their president.
