This is the first of an occasional series to introduce you to the new committee chairs in the House of Representatives. Mr. Smith has said the big advantage of having a Republican majority is its ability to “issue subpoenas and find out what the Administration has been doing that the American people don’t know.”
He has been critical of Attorney General Holder for his policies regarding supposed voter intimidation by the “New Black Panther Party” [voter suppression here we come], and he doesn’t want terrorism suspects to be given Miranda rights.
He wants to keep Guantanamo Bay open and keep people there indefinitely without any rights. After all, they are terrorists, right?
He wants to enforce immigration laws with mass deportations, and he calls the DREAM Act a “nightmare for the American people.” He supports the Arizona law on immigrants.
He’s really concerned about child porn. I’m not sure if he is concerned about the children of illegal immigrants. I’m guessing not.
He wants to limit medical malpractice lawsuits. He’s a Christian Scientist.
