Atlas Shrugged coming to a town near you soon

'The ironic part of Waxman's abuse of power is that he also demands that CEOs show up with "any documents, including e-mail messages, sent to or prepared or reviewed by senior company officials related to the projected impact of health care reform."'

We all know what 'living up to a stereotype' means. But what about 'acting out somebodies novel'?

Having just bulldozed my way determinedly through 'Atlas Shrugged', it seems that America is determined to re-enact the novel in glorious 3-d. Henry Waxman is so obviously stealing lines from Wesley Mouch, there may well be a case for prosecuting him for plagiarism.

I discounted much of Ayn Rands signature novel as over-dramatised and implausible- but the Democrats are determined to bring it to life! Sadly missing from the book, though is a Nancy Pelosi figure. She'll just have to make do.

Oh, and I'm pretty sure there is no Galt's Gulch in their version...
