    I worry about the garbage in Colesville and don't care about the trash in Point of Rocks (or Leesburg).

      Way to go conservatives. Attack a woman for dancing on film. Good job. Golf clap.

          Here's a pretty good summary of PayGo in all its complexity.

          It appears to be like Three Strikes or The Patriot Act: terrible policy but difficult-to-oppose optics so we enabled it out of short-sightedness and now our legacy Members are having trouble extracting themselves from it. We're probably stuck with it until we get new leadership and Pelosi is great in other ways (the bill she dropped today for election reform and ethics is excellent) so we're not in a hurry to do that.

            It's politics, if you're "fighting fair" you're incompetent and going to lose.

              She’s not as classy as melania, posing nude.
              Or as embarrassing as Donnie motor boating Rudy in drag.

                          Less student debt means that when they do get a decent job, they won't spend the next decade or more paying those loans back. They can save for a down payment on their first new car, first home, etc.

                                Does the "family meal" for staff at most decent restaurants count?
