So perjury among cabinet members is going to end up being just another thing that was held together by decorum and good faith and not actual enforced rules, right?

Words bend our thinking to infinite paths of self-delusion, and the fact that we spend most of our mental lives in brain mansions built of words means that we lack the objectivity necessary to see the terrible distortion of reality which language brings.

push to have a special prosecutor appointed wrt russian connections since the AG is now a suspect

yah, but this is still the first month, and after a couple more months of "we're gonna have the best plan ever, it's coming up in two weeks", combined with weekly scandals, the novelty protection will have worn off for even the hardest of core, and the russian mob connections everyone knows about will be the easiest way to pull the plug on the orange staph pillow

To be a true poet is to become God.
I tried to explain this to my friends on Heaven's Gate. 'Piss, poo poo,' I said. 'rear end in a top hat motherfucker, goddamn poo poo goddamn. oval office. Pee-pee oval office. Goddamn!'
They shook their heads and smiled, and walked away. Great poets are rarely understood in their own day.

Republicans are absolutely 100% fine with this

They ran private servers and deleted millions of e-mails under Dubbya and 60+ embassies got bombed and attacked and oh yeah he did 9/11

To this day, none care

Do not expect them to do the right thing. If your choices are "The GOP will do the right thing" and "The government no longer serves the people, time to take other actions" then all I'm going to say is don't be a huge goddamned moron cuck

What will it take to impeach or investigate Trump or any of his merry band of psychos? They'd need a D next to their name

That's literally 100% of what is required and in fact it is an impeachable offense in itself

After fifty-five years of dedicating his life and work to the story of ethical systems, Sol Weintraub had come to a single, unshakable conclusion: any allegiance to a deity or concept or universal principal which put obedience above decent behavior toward an innocent human being was evil.

it's taking a disappointingly long time, but I still believe that eventually the long-standing American institutions, even in this late yool of 2017, will still elect to throw off actual Russian mobsters at the topmost levels of government

it's sad to think: it took two years and two months from the watergate burglary hitting the news (june 1972) to nixon resigning in disgrace (august 1974), and in the midst of it all, with the scandal already in the news, nixon was handily reelected in november 1972

If it takes you 55 years to look up "deontology" you might want to leave philosophy to the big boys.

apparently you put rice in a rice cooker, and add a tomato on top, and then mush that into the rice, so i'd give that an albedo in the high .9's
