HEADLINE: DOJ: No contempt charges for former IRS official Lois Lerner

Don’t worry. Trey Gowdy will be all over it and like Mike Pence he’ll prove once again that Culberson really said that replucklicans will use the Powerlessness of the Pu$$hees, not the power of the purse, to not get things done.

Super Dave, do you only walk your doglets on a pipeline right-of-way, and never along a street where they might wander up into someone’s yard? I am still laughing about a photo that was posted on my neighborhood’s FB Group page yesterday. It showed a woman walking her leashed dog along a street around here, with the dog crapping in… Read more »

Having won the war on gay marriage (by judicial fiat), now some liberal zealots insist on going house-to-house and shooting the survivors.

#27 TP: That would be a great new project for James O’Keefe, but only with body armor and lots of backup.

I looked up Maundy and found a reference to washing the feet on that Thursday. I don’t get the religious significance of foot washing — can someone enlighten me?
