  1. I would be interested in a learning songs thread too. ^
  2. There seems to be an inherent expectation of comity and etiquette in DC, even if it's just superficial. You see in in politicians and journalists. I don't want to be that guy/gal to step over the line b/c I want to keep my job. I think the Ds can call Trump out for what he and his administration are, and I think they can do it in a civil and forceful manner. A message of this is not who we are.
  3. He'll learn all the acronyms once he gets his office set up. Takes time.
  4. 20 years ago, he would have been impeached on publicly available information.
  5. The Ds have an opportunity to stand for the rule of law, and they better find a way to make that loud and clear to the public. Start impeachment hearings tomorrow.
  6. This is not the Mueller that we looked at in the show room.
  7. ^ There's a discussion here. The comments are mostly skeptical of the 2-4 megaton estimate. https://www.reddit.com/r/nuclear/comments/bovett/chernobyl_second_explosion_possibility_of_24/ .
  8. Jackie Speier said on CNN this morning that one current line of D thinking is that they would hold the inquiry up to the impeachment vote, and then not vote. I'm not sure I agree with that, but that may be their new line of attack.
  9. I guess it was in the Trump thread that I posted a quote from Ted Lieu. They can start an impeachment inquiry without actually impeaching. The inquiry would apparently give them more power to bring in witnesses and evidence.
  10. Mrs. Speedtrucker always brought the laughs too.
  11. I think it was hullabelew.
  12. From the article
  13. https://www.apnews.com/40654a1b83eb45e3b661903305083d9e
  14. Demanding fealty from everyone in sight is a nice touch on his list.
  15. Whoever at Boeing decided to leave the MCAS documentation out of the final 'type' document (whatever it's called) should be put in jail.
  16. Screw diplomacy. MAGA!
  17. If they impeach, the Ds will probably get more credit from the voters than they think.
  18. The Rs along with RushHannityFox have been playing this game for >25 years. When you go home to your district, you say all the buzz words that please your base. Lower taxes, healthcare across state lines, strong military, responsible fiscal policy, free market, etc. When you go back to DC you work like hell to obtain more power and $$$, and in your spare time you try to undermine any good that the black, muslim president accomplished. Give it to the libs, and good. Trump/Bannon took that to a whole new level in the '16 campaign. Just saying Build the Wall a thousand times was enough for many voters.
  19. Those tree huggers' tears tho!
  20. I think Nantz said Hogan, Palmer, Nicklaus, and Tiger are the only others to win 4 majors before 30.
