Two things are certain: first, she will do whatever Der Dotard commands, and second she will NOT run for election...

Lindsey Graham was a few dress sizes too big to borrow from Darline's closet, but her wardrobe will make it to Capitol Hill posthumusly ahead of him.

This is why republicans are hiding McConnell's corpse, so Andy Beshear can't make a temporary appointment to fill his senate seat.

And democrats won't do a thing about it.

Andy couldnt anyway because of the law they have on the books, however it would open the door to Massey in a special election if I am not mistaken.

Israel just unseated him.

There's no way they'd let Massie back in, especially not as a senator.

His sister? How is she qualified? I guess Republicans don't take the job of being a U.S. senator seriously then, huh?

Not too bad, Basho.

This weekend during dinner I was challenged to come up with a song over the infernal Lindsey Graham.

I was deeply involved with my delicious sangria, but nevertheless I imagined a limn, laid down a 4/4 beat, went with the key of 'F,' and organized the first stanza (ABAB).

*Applause*

Drink, swallow, blush...Repeat...

Alas and alack, I wish I could remember what brilliance I came up with.
