Okay, but the hell of it is her insider trading. She, and almost a hundred other congress people are making themselves richer by using intelligence memos to buy and sell stocks before the rest of us are aware of what they are. Is it just me? I feel like the weird old guy on Sunday mornings that stands on the corner and yells at traffic. Why is there no outrage at this? It's maddening.

There is plenty of outrage by the public, but fat chance getting congress to stop. Would be as probable as passing term limits, or pay cuts for congress.

It could be that I just came in from running and am looking forward to eating a gummy, or it also could be that you just posted 3 things in which we are in complete agreement.

I suspect trickery.
 
I just came in from my run and had a gummy, and suspect I'll be chasing my tail on this for some time.

It will cause debris to fall, and if it's already, they've already gotten what they came for, so taking it out now wont make a difference. That's what they've said so far today.
