Grayson Shreds Republican On Constitutional Question
"Rep. Alan Grayson (D-Fla.) dispensed with the typical Congressional niceties Wednesday at a House science and technology markup,
when he dismantled a Republican provision targeting ACORN on constitutional grounds.
Refusing to yield his time to allow Republican Rep. Paul Broun of Georgia to escape his line of questioning, Grayson persisted
in establishing that Broun's provision was a constitutionally-prohibited bill of attainder, a law which punishes a
particular individual or group -- in this case, denying federal funds -- without benefit of a trial.
The tense exchange was unusual among members of Congress, and nervous laughter filled the committee chamber
after the second of three times Grayson refused to yield."
