The whole idea that Congress needs to put together a collection of amateur sleuths to “investigate” crimes is ridiculous. Let professionals who investigate crimes do so, send the results straight to the public without allowing politicians to edit their findings.

The only way to defeat either Ryan’s or Trump’s tax “reform” is to get across how deeply it will affect the available money for the budget, which means no infrastructure spending, military spending or any other spending without driving us back into deep deficits (which Trump actually believes are a great thing. This…

I admit, it will be interesting to learn who signed him onto the White House grounds.

I read a quote from a pilot recently about bad weather and difficult landing conditions. He said that “about once a month, a pilot earns all of his pay”. That sounds like a fair assessment. Fair weather landings are almost all routine: the instant they aren’t routine, they become life and death. I think it’s a…

Sheep dip with a side of cheese.

“Uwe Boll’s Restaurant Is Better Than His Movies”

The healthcare bill was taken down by a combination of moderate Republicans who thought it was too harsh and Conservative Republicans who thought it was too soft. This is evidence that the Republican Party is only a Party when they want to cite membership tallies. They are incapable of compromising even amongst…

Not a fan of any Trumpster, but I’m not worried about the “primary point of contact.” Someone designated as THE point of contact would probably be aware that their behavior was being scrutinized. I’m worried about all the other Trump advisors  who seem to have had discussions with Russian politicians and activists,…

Not to worry: he HAS insurance, which we pay for.

While Trump is an idiot and his tweets are demonstrably full of lies, promoting pending legislation is the very definition of the “Bully Pulpit” of the President. Applying the law against this would be destroy one of the Presidency’s long-established privileges, and would severely weaken all Presidents to come. IMHO,…

Wow. What a bastard.

This may be the most petulant declaration ever uttered by a President. If Trump does back off of healthcare, his base will either sacrifice so many moderate Republicans they will take the party out of power, or they will turn on the Orange Child. Either way, I’d love to see it happen.

Unless you have previously nailed yourself to said president’s political coattails.

Mr. Perry obviously hasn’t read the Aggie Honor Code very closely. It’s introduction reads “For many years Aggies have followed a Code of Honor, which is stated in this very simple verse: An Aggie does not lie, cheat or steal or tolerate those who do.” Having had to endure Mr. Perry as Governor of Texas for years,…

Gorsuch proclaimed loudly that he doesn’t believe in “litmus tests” for justices, which is really funny considering a litmus test-like history is precisely how you get an audition for this job.

You know, come Thanksgiving, I fully expect Trump to kill the turkey.

Unfortunately, with the orange one, “The buck stops somewhere else. Probably somewhere to the left...”

Obamacare was plagued by the constant strawman arguments about fictional “Death Panels” determining how and when people’s coverage would suddenly stop based on an individual’s health expenses. The Republican plan seems to have a Death Panel, too - It’s called “Congress”.

At that speed, metal on metal, probably.

Hey, let’s put children in a two story playground and turn the lights out. It’ll be like the training scene from “Remo Williams”.
