Principle

You cannot pacify feigned outrage by taking it seriously.

Corollary: it is both possible and common for Rrpublicans to piss off their base by trying to appease Democrats, but in the modern era unheard of for it to make the slightest bit of difference.

There was a time the parties played “one for you, one for me.” But since at least Obama the game has been “one for me and who the fuck are you?”

My feeling is Grassley gives this chick one last shot at testifying Monday, then closes the door.  IT DOES NOT MATTER WHAT HE DOES: outrage–feigned outage–will be the result. We might as well cut to the chase. There will be screaming and howling no matter what.
