He was rejected at that time. McConnell accused her of defaming a Senator. She was reading the words of Coretta Scott King! The guy in charge asked if there were objections to her continuing to read and McConnell said he objected. So Senator Warren was told to take her seat and she was red-carded so that she will be unable to participate in any further Senate hearings on Jeff Sessions. In other words they told her to sit down and shut up. Coretta Scott King's words apparently are unwelcome on the floor of the Senate. But rude/insulting/disgraceful Senatorial actions are just fine. What do YOU think? Why? less

I'm not sure whom or what would administer that test but I'd like to know how well or poorly I did with details of the successes/failures. We kinda know most of it I suppose. But I'd like to know ALL of it. Would you too? If it were possible?
administration's watering down of the Dodd-Frank Act allow Wall Street to again run amok and bring about another financial crisis? Did I say water down? I meant dismantle.

I don't know why they didn't think of that, do you? That way no one fights anyone. The people are no match for them so they won't be a problem. New world. New ownership. New methods. Exciting ain't it?

The Byrds wrote a song called "Turn Turn Turn" which included some lines from it. Abraham Lincoln used a line in one of his speeches from it. "One generation passeth away and another generation cometh but the earth abideth forever. What follows is Ecclesiastes 3.1-3.8 and it isn't really religious per se. I think Atheists wouldn't object to it. "To everything there is a season and a time to every purpose under the sun. A time to be born and a time to die. A time to plant and a time to pluck up that which is planted. A time to kill and a time to heal. A time to break down and a time to build up. A time to weep and a time to laugh. A time to mourn and a time to dance. A time to cast away stones and a time to gather stones together. A time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing. A time to get and a time to lose. A time to keep an... less

I've no doubt that the author got it right but the copy setter has been careless. It's not too hard to work out what's meant but that entails re-reading the sentence, or the paragraph, to see what it really means, And THAT drags me out of the story. How do you feel about badly punctuated work?

Because the copy setter have never heard "get" used in the sense that it means offspring or progeny. He "corrected" her spelling and she let it stand.

Should we impeach him now? Thank you Kate Bennett for bringing this horror to our attention.
I once saw video of an Australian Prime Minister kissing babies. It's gotta be one of the most insincere things they can do as they grovel for votes. What turns YOU off?
I once introduced a woman as my "Ex" and she was quick to add "ex dancing partner". She either didn't think much of my dancing, or else she didn't think much of me. What have you done?
