I did catch this phrase on the radio this A.M...
"Ridiculous, Partisan Investigations..."
Some of us, of course, feel that those investigations are the last best hope for our reeling, beat-up, tattered little Democracy.
** A bit reminiscent of this moment in history: Richard Nixon's last SOTU in 1974. "I believe the time has come to bring that investigation and the other investigations of the matter to an end. One year of Watergate is enough." - R. Nixon --- 7 months later he resigned in disgrace!
