Henry Waxman (D-CA)
Don't let the charming smile fool you
Henry Waxman never hesitates in abusing the power of the supoena when he finds someone who disagrees with the party line.

Waxman, a highly partisan figure, brushed off the myriad of scandals under the Clinton administration with the remark, "so what?". Under Bush, he was looking for a scandal behind every....bush, for lack of a better word.
So now that a few CEOs state that they are going to be hurt by the health care bill, they get supoened to Washington to be browbeat by Waxman and his fellow Democrats.
Legal? Sure, a supoena makes everything legal, but it is an abuse of power.
