That looks awfully familiar. I wonder where I’ve seen similar Byzantine requirements. Oh yeah:

Yes, but let’s be careful in assuming that there’s a smoking gun in there.  There may not be and putting all your hopes and dreams into that report can backfire if it turns out that he did some, somewhat shady stuff, but nothing over the top. 

Apologize for Vince Foster, Seth Rich, White Water, Benghazi, Obama’s Birth Certificate, Obama being a secret Muslim, Most of Kavanaugh’s career (I’m sure I’m missing others), have the people responsible step down, and we’ll talk.

I do have a concern this is a “please don’t throw me in the briar patch” situation.  We should not be putting all of our eggs into this basket.  

I’ve also noticed that Trump appointees will filibuster or give non-responsive answers on purpose because it runs out the clock. Other administration officials have done this, but Trump seems to do it bigly. There’s a small PR hit to doing that, but their base will never see it or will think it’s justified.

I think she knows that she doesn’t “present well” at these hearings and she does not care. She’ll tolerate some public embarrassment to destroy the public school system, subsidize religious schools, normalize guns in schools, and roll back civil rights.

I’m torn on whether a slow transition or big bang will work better.  American’s don’t like change, they prefer to be led to the inevitable. 

I think they’d come out ahead- they’d pay more in taxes (assuming we revise the tax system), but have few expenses and and admin to provide health insurance.

Prediction: They will introduce a plan that covers pre-existing conditions but allows insurers to charge significantly more to do that. It follows their line of “access to” the best healthcare in the world.  Meaning, you probably can’t afford it, but it’s available to you, so bootstraps.

People who support the wall should go down to Mexico and help build it; people who support war with Iran should enlist and volunteer to fight in it with minimal military support; people who support getting rid of social security and medicare, should stop using it; people who are opposed to big government should never…

Kavanagh et. al. will be fine with it until it benefits more than a couple blue states, and then revisit.  

True that you can remove partisanship entirely from the process, but you can reduce it by a significant degree, and that’s better than what we have (and likely will have for the near future).

Many public universities pursue out of country (e.g. China and India) as well. They pay high tuition (I think higher than out of state) and can be used to pad their diversity statistics.

The problem is that starting with Gingrich, even local elections have been on the national stage. So, even if Jones votes against the Green New Deal, Republicans will accuse him of being the next AOC.  So, allowing them to vote how they want is to vote for the GND with all the good and bad that goes with it. 

Everyone knew he was a sleazy POS, but was a useful, temporary, ally.

Agreed, although it’s a bit pricey unless they’re doing one of their special events.

I’ll check it out.  Currently the American Visionary Art Museum in Baltimore has my vote.

DC resident, so we’re practically overrun with museums. So, I’ll mention a few museums that I think are underrated in DC:

DOJ letter says there was not a single time Mueller was blocked from an action he wanted to take.

I’m sure she has a tutor and a person writing her papers for Legal writing.
