#1 It must be nice not to be a "little person" and have that "get out of jail free card".

Such a cleptocracy!

#4 Term Limits would preclude 'old guard' like Rangel, Waxman, and Pelosi [and for that matter, the good old boys from the other side of the aisle] from stacking the committees with these two leggers, as in four legs good, two legs better.

#5 Why would they want to get rid of him? I'm sure that right now, he would be very, very compliant with whatever Madame Pelosi would want him to do. (Not that he wasn't willing to go along before, but now there's no way in hell he would dare even make a squeak against anything she wants.)

#7 It aint the race card or Nancy Pelosis cover that makes Charlie virtually untouchable. Hes a Fixer. And like any competent Fixer you accumulate dirt on your friends and foe equally. His talent for veiled threats disguised as wry comments have served him well thus far theres no reason to believe it wont in the future.
