Hmm, funny, what happened in 2008 that the Repos might have thought meant that extra ethics scrutiny was necessary? And what changed in 2016?

Seems pretty straightforward - when there's a (don't say black) democrat in the white house, we'd better watch extra hard for ethics breaches. Not so important when there's a (don't say criminal) republican.

And on they go with Obamacare. They are like a bunch of bratty kids in school whose teacher doesn't come in, running around yelling "Ha, ha, now we can do what we wa-ant."

They are a bunch of petty assholes who don't care that 9 million people are on ACA. They care about those sweet, sweet campaign contributions from insurance companies. They are saying they are going to offer "an alternative." Really? Let's see it. Let's see it before you cut off 9m peoples health insurance.

They don't have one and they never will. They will get rid of ACA (just because it was the black guy's thing) and that will be it. There will be no replacement. They will just move on to fuck up something else.

Kellyanne is a sociopath who has never met the truth. The poor dear.

There's a movement to stop calling it ISIS and start calling it Da'esh. There is a version of it's name that still works with Da'esh as an acronym and it's a huge insult.

And at the end of the very first inning, the score is Swamp 1, Drains 0.

John Yoo has some moral qualms about that punishment.

Mike Enzi of WY where maybe 20k folks have ACA coverage should sit down.

So, if the Dems were to actually retake the House in 2018, they'd have no choice but to you the oversight committee to investigate ethics complaints against members because there's no independent oversight for that anymore?

But what about reaching across the aisle?!? Oh wait, only Democrats have to do that per the important thought leaders...

Carry on with the razing!

That implies a level of self-awareness I don't think he can manage.

Consumer, you have no right to lodge a complaint!

Look, first of all, you have not even filed a Form 2940-C-7, Request To Convert Free Speech (Wallet-Style Speech to Word-Style Speech)! Not for me, or for your local congressman? Oh no. This is very bad.

I have also not witnessed you express your national gratitude to Our Leader yet this morning. This is looking very bad for you, Consumer. Very bad indeed.

Not a good idea, a GREAT idea. Then, we can finally get down to the business of investigating those damned Demoncrats who use their elected positions to enrich themselves.

As you know, Republicans only go into politics to serve the people.

Actually, it's impossible for conservatives to behave in a non-ethical manner. That's just science.

They're trying to make that against the rules too.
