I hope she has a long, healthy, and fulfilling life after her period of public service.

Just as long as I don't have to listen to her and as long as she is never again put in a position to affect others on a national level.

Too bad the guy who has to continuously apply saline to her creepy unblinking eyes is now out of a job.

I kind of liked her in a weird sort of way.

It would have to be weird har har har.


She's not been so active recently , something like half of her recent bills have had no cosponsors. Being a famous House member goes so far, but it doesn't make you powerful.

Unfortunately, she was on the HPSCI and based on what my govies tell me, a real joy to brief.

It's funny that she (in my view) calmed down a bit after moving to the Intelligence committee. As in the silly things she was saying no longer were about AfPak/Middle East. She let a lot of that stuff slide during her presidential campaign, and during the debates she let all the others talk about surges and cut-and-run etc


She was no genius but I think the Intel committee was good for her.

So, you think her time on that committee actually gave her some intelligence?

Bowing out is possibly the smartest thing she's ever done.:yeah:

Now, for the rest of that delusional grandeur riff raff....

If nobody voted for these clowns it would end in nothing but one to one ties.:hmmm:

Wish some of our (Tory) politicians would do the same............

You really don't like the Tories, eh?
Can't say as I blame you. We got rid of ours way back when. Followed closely by the Whigs.
Our only problem is they became Democrats and Republicans. Same jerks, just different names. A problem that's all too prevalent in the corporate world...
If you discover that your customers hate your guts, just change your name.

Great business for the shingle makers.:up:

It is comforting that Michelle is calling it quits. Is an MB a reverse BM?
In her case I'd have to say yes. Now she can devote more time toward getting the brown stains off her chin.

My guess she'll join the TCT group of Evangelist selling food buckets for the end of the world and curing homos as a sideline.

Well, they're gonna need it if they expect to be around for the end of the world.:O:

If only we could get her to take Ted Cruz, Louie Gohmert and Shelia Jackson Lee with her.

Ted Cruz won a lot of fans for calling out that googly eyed harpy during the gun control debate. I especially enjoyed Fienstiens avoidence of answering the question and her emotional reaction. Anbody who would stand up to that totalitarian bitch is winner in my book.
