Its no different than one drunk redneck yelling into the bar that there is some tig ol bitties in the parking lot and 6 other rednecks pile out of the bar to check it out. Unfortunately, its usually some scraggly looking meth whore that anybody who wasn't a toothless redneck would completely ignore.
The expectations and validity of whats proposed is only as good as the moron whose mouth it comes out of. Congressmen don't validate Glenn Beck, they're just around to make sure when Glenn decides he wants a handjob at the country club in the sauna, which one of them is going to get paid for it.

Actually, Rep. Peter King (anti-Muslim/right-wing grandstander) and a few others in Congress drafted a request a few days ago for such an investigation:

Janet Napolitano Dismisses Deportation "Rumors"
Previous reports that Ali Alharbi was to be deported were roundly disregarded (and even mocked) by Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano. She roundly dismissed deportation concerns during a "heated exchange", which occurred on Thursday regarding the Saudi National with Rep. Jeff Duncan (R-SC). She said,
"I am unaware of anyone who is being deported for national security concerns at all related to Boston...I don't know where that rumor came from."
When Duncan questioned the wisdom of deporting "someone who was reportedly at the scene of the bombing", Napolitano dodged the question by mocking it. She said,
"It is so full of misstatements and misapprehensions, that it is just not worthy of any answer...There has been so much reported on this that has been wrong. I can't even begin to tell you, congressman."

The Obamas attended an interfaith church service Thursday morning for the victims of the Boston Marathon bombings before visiting the injured at local hospitals. President Obama went to Massachusetts General Hospital while Michelle visited the children's hospital.
The visits were off limits to the media and came on short notice for security reasons
