any of this shit, which they knew or at least suspected was out there, hit the fan. That's the real reason for the big hurry.

We need to delay every one of their nominations as long as possible from here on out.

Never EVER trust the GOP. Never EVER let them have what they want. It's guaranteed to be bad for all of us.
