Meet the inquisitor general in the new House of Representatives. It won't be long before his name will be household and he will be on all of the Sunday AM talking point shows. He will claim that he wants to eliminate waste in government in order to dismantle it. The recession, and the budget deficit that it produces, provides the cover for "starving the beast". Anyone familiar with the budget knows that it can't be brought into balance by eliminating waste. Of course, he understands that his base believes otherwise.
