“Recently,
California’s Senator Dianne Feinstein gave a graphic demonstration of what can
happen when you have been in office too long.
During a
discussion of Senator Feinstein’s proposed legislation on gun control, Texas’ freshman
Senator Ted Cruz quietly and politely asked “the senior Senator from
California” whether she would treat the First Amendment and the Fourth
Amendment the same way her gun control bill was treating the Second Amendment,
which guarantees the right to bear arms.
Senator Feinstein
never addressed that question. Instead, she became testy and told Senator Cruz
how long she had been in Congress and how much she knew.
Watching her get up on
her high horse to put him in his place, recalled the words of Cromwell to
Members of Parliament: “You have sat too long for any good that you have been
doing lately. … In the name of God, go!””
