I'm thinking Tennessee Senator Lamar Alexander had a baptism, rather than a bris. But after reading his speech on Judge Neil Gorsuch's Supreme Court nomination, I thought I might offer him a little Yiddish lesson. Just so he should know what my people might be saying when it sounds like we swallowed a German hairball. It's for your own good I tell you these things, Boychik! And it's raining today in DC, so take a hat that you don't catch your death of cold,
Joe Biden says something about stopping a nominee in a president's last year in a Senate floor speech 25+ years ago and it's considered the gospel cast in stone for the ages to Republicans. The current president spouts some outrageous bullshit one day and the next day Republicans are 'forget about that, that was yesterday'.
There are only two constitutional requirements for a seat on the SCOTUS. Nomination by the POTUS and confirmation by the Senate. No age, education, or citizenship requirements, nada, none, bupkis, etc.
How about some sort of dream single-payer plan that somehow also funnels big bucks to the 1%. I bet you could get THAT passed. (Might be a little spendy, though.)

So in order to testify about the president/potentially AGAINST the president, she has to get authorization...from the president.
This is all so stupid.
I'm shocked, shocked, that the NRA would sacrifice hunters for awl bidnessmen.
easy for you to say!
[ i couldn't say that ]
All this would be so fucking simple if we had a President who had any actual notion of what honest government or business is about.
No, you cannot haz my Merkley or Wyden. No you cannot!
He'll attract more turtles?
Sen. Alexander and his buddies can go shtup themselves. They don't need help from Dems, they are doing well all on their own.
Cloture is an imperative part of the cheesemaking process.

Lamar Alexander: Zolst vaksen vi a tsibelleh mit un kop in d'r erd. (You should grow like an onion with your head in the ground.)
That Sheldon Whitehouse guy -- no relation -- sure knows how to turn a phrase, doesn't he?

I don't know -- how many of them are Russian?
Since he's a talking mule, I would hope he would back up to these fuckers.
