Got nerves? Got Milk? Got Good News Roundup? Stay tuned after the snark for a handy link to one of the three.
[Insert de rigueur tired joke moaning about nothing happening today here]
My favorite shade from today’s testimony: At around 12:13PM Daniel Goldman, during his questioning of Ambassador Taylor and Assistant Undersecretary Kent said “reading the transcript, as we’ve been encouraged to do” is a direct smack at someone repeatedly asking everyone to read the transcript of his perfect phone call. He then highlighted some pertinent bits of the not-a-transcript transcript. Remember, only the guilty won’t obey subpoenas.
Today we’ve got something a little different. Calling the GOP “Grabby Old Perverts” or any other common expansion of their iconic TLA (Three-Letter Acronym) wears thin after several dozen repetitions. And now that they’ve circled the wagons around their lord and master, it’s going to be important to have different ways to refer to them. After all, variety is the spice of snark, so here’s a handy GOP acronym interpretation generator. Just grab a handy 24 sided die and pick one from column ‘G’, one from column ‘O’ and one from column “P’. There are 13,824 possible combinations. Even though Nunes and Jordan look to be the face ass of the republican defense of the indefensible, we’ll still need to refer to the entire corrupt collusion clown car. Today we heard their battle cry whimper of deny, deflect and dissemble. By the way, adding one word to each column would increase the possible combinations to 15,625 in case you want to up the ante.
