A day after Rep. Randy Neugebauer (R., Texas) fessed up to being the lawmaker who shouted out “baby killer” during the House debate on the health care bill, the matter is ricocheting around Capitol Hill.

Rep. Michael Capuano (D., Mass.), sitting about 100 feet from Neugebauer at a House hearing on Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac on Tuesday, used the opportunity to swipe at his GOP colleague.

“My emotions might overcome me and I might be tempted to scream out that someone, or something or some group of people might be a ‘homeownership killer’ if they got rid of Fannie and Freddie,” Capuano said.

Neugebauer didn’t respond to the barb, which caused a surprised gasp from both Republican and Democratic staff members, who briefly dropped their practiced straight-ahead gaze.

1. Being Republican means that no matter what stupid

bullying thing you do, it's always the Dem's fault. And if the Dem stands up for what's right, he's "poking" or whatever word the sycophantic Repub press chooses.
