Virginia Foxx & Humpty Dumpty, Together Again
NC-5 Rep. Virginia Foxx published a guest editorial in today's Winston-Salem Journal in which she came out publicly and agreed with the impeccable logic of the most cracked character in "Alice in Wonderland": "When I use a word," Humpty Dumpty said in a rather scornful tone," it means just what I choose it to mean -- neither more nor less" (HT: MW).
Apparently, none of us actually heard her say what the entire nation heard her say.
Whatever.
By sundown (I believe) the chair of the Watauga County Democratic Party had posted a rebuttal containing (interestingly) a solemn pledge offered for V. Foxx's signature ... that she won't continue accepting her own government-run health insurance until all her constituents who have no health insurance have the option of purchasing government-run insurance at least as good as hers.

Barfing Up Frank Luntz
We linked below to a press release from the chair of the Watauga County Democratic Party, calling out 5th Dist. Rep. Virginia Foxx for regurgitating propaganda points written by Republican operative Frank Luntz to scare people away from any health-care reform.
Others have noticed Foxx's ventriloquism, in much more detail.
