Dem: Every Republican a ‘Wholly Owned Subsidiary of the Insurance Industry’

(New York Daily News) - Rep. Anthony Weiner — saboteur? Rabble-rouser? Entertainer? Perhaps all of the above, as the unfortunate GOP Rep. Dan Lungren discovered this afternoon on the House floor when he decided to interrupt the Brooklyn boy and demand that he withdraw his remarks that Republicans have chutzpah and are “wholly owned subsidiaries” of the insurance industry. “Mr. Speaker, I ask the gentleman’s words be taken down,” an offended Lungren piped up, invoking a rule to chastise members for using inappropriate language on the House floor. “You really don’t want to go here, Mr. Lundgren,” responded Weiner, with arms crossed and a cat-that-ate-the-canary look.
