Pombo's demolition approach to our legislative process

Erica Rosenberg, a former staffer for the House Resources Committee wrote an excellent LA Times Op-Ed piece detailing how Pombo dutifully follows the GOP playbook of circumventing and ignoring the legislative process in order to railroad their bills to a vote. I highly recommend you go read the whole thing.

Basically, what's at stake here is the erosion of our democratic process itself. This is intolerable and it transcends policy and politics.
