Congressional total irresponsibility

Congress' Abdication of Oversight

Tuesday, January 17, 2006 -- In a pair of new reports, Rep. Henry A. Waxman examines the failure of the Republican-controlled Congress to investigate wrongdoing by the Bush Administration and the very different approach toward oversight taken by the Republican-controlled Congress during the Clinton Administration.

An additional report released in 2001 documents numerous examples of allegations against the Clinton Administration that Republican investigators pursued and ultimately failed to substantiate.
