Buh-bye Conspiracy Guy
Veteran California Democrat Henry Waxman, whose legislative and political savvy helped remake the American health care system, reveal tobacco’s dangers and expose steroids in baseball, will retire at the end of the 113th Congress.
“I will have completed 40 years in Congress by the end of this year,” Waxman said in an interview with POLITICO in his Capitol Hill office this week. “I think it’s time to let somebody else come in and take on some of these fights.” Read more: Henry Waxman to retire - Jake Sherman and John Bresnahan - POLITICO.com |

I will miss Waxman on CSpan. He's one of the few members of Congress who knows how to conduct an examination of a witness. We need more like him, IMHO, but 40 years is enough. Waxman Retires by Ed Kilgore | Political Animal | The Washington Monthly

Waxman had the temerity to call big players out on their shenanigans. Not free market.

I doubt that "nonpartisan" is a word Waxman would use to describe himself. Am I incorrect about that? |

No need for that, but it seems as if the lampoon should bear some relation to its subject.

Speaking truth to power is not necessarily popular depending on whose ox is getting gored.
