This Zoe Lofgren ought to be tossed out of the house on her fat ass. Does she think her job is a joke??
TEA Partiers would be wise to keep this on the front page. We need some adults in congress for a change.

House leader calls Colbert testimony 'an embarrassment'

WASHINGTON (AP) — The House's No. 2 Democratic leader said Sunday that comedian Stephen Colbert's testimony last week on immigration was "inappropriate" and "an embarrassment."
Democratic Rep. Zoe Lofgren of California invited Colbert to appear before the House Judiciary Committee. But other Democrats weren't happy about her decision.

The committee chairman, Rep. John Conyers, D-Mich., asked Colbert to leave the room at the beginning of the hearing because the comedian had no expertise in farm labor issues or immigration policy.

House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer of Maryland told Fox News Sunday he thought the episode was more of an embarrassment to Colbert than to the House. But, he added, "I think it was inappropriate" that he testified.

Lofgren spokesman Pedro Ribeiro declined comment Sunday.
