Permitting the Speim a bossker to be humiliated by his own caucus on his own bill for a full day is not disrespectful?
Staging whiny walk-outs from all-party negotiations is tough? I think not.
Eric Cantor fails to accurately count votes for his boss - and fails to protect his boss from defections in the ranks. He is more loyal to the splinter faction he is Read More

Hats of to Sofutel for protecting their workers against this predatory man. I have a feeling that this immigrant from Guinea would not have been given the time management techniques of day had this been a Sofitel in Paris, Brussels, Rome or even London. These workers are the bottom of the pool in the hotel chain and yet the management had no qualms about going Read More
