The Hill newspaper reports that Republicans and Democrats in Washington have stocked the House select committee that will investigate Planned Parenthood with something new and different: Women.

These two paragraphs are the jaw-dropper:

The only other House committee in history to have a woman serving as chairman and ranking member was the House Select Committee on the Beauty Shop. That panel existed from 1967 to 1977, and oversaw the operations of a salon on Capitol Hill. The panel was later folded into the House Administration Committee.
