that burns going to leave a mark

And how do you know about that?

Depends on who is asking the questions. And to whom.

No, I think that pond is much deeper.

Hᴀ? Hᴀ??

that is a gross exaggeration, the pond is deeper

You know the old adage… “Look before you leap.”

Diving in headfirst without checking is just a death wish.

Hearing of what? Dinysaurs?

Congressional Hearings: Places for Elected Officials to get a sound bite on the news and look like they are working

It’s deeper.

Ain’t that the truth. A hearing where the result was a foregone conclusion.

Watched a tiny bit of the questioning of nominees yesterday. I was waiting for one of them to ask, Please answer yes or no, do you still beat your wife?

Republicans in both houses of congress prove they have no backbone, no morals and no honor.

Why does the voice and stuttering of RFKJr remind me of Jim the cabbie in Taxi series? At least he occasionally made sense.

But it’s a fine spectacle nonetheless.

Mitch made it all possible… And now, he can’t turn it around..

Huzzah!

When I was investigated to get a security clearance the FBI did a much better job than they were allowed to do on the Supreme Court Justices. They were not limited to one weekend and they were not told what questions they were allowed to ask or not ask.

HA!!! Maybe back in the early 1800s (maybe), but these days you couldn’t get the bottom of your feet wet in one.

Politics are best left to the political cartoonists.

Yep……it always “looks” deep enough!!!

Oh snap!

Or the depth of congressional testimony, which is just a theater of elected morons

“When the doctrine of allegiance to party can utterly up-end a man’s moral constitution and make a temporary fool of him besides, what excuses are you going to offer preaching it, teaching it, extending it, perpetuating it? Shall you say the best good of the country demands allegiance to party? Shall you also say that it demands a man kick his truth and his conscience into the gutter, and become a mouthing lunatic, besides?” Mark Twain

The Senate more shallow

Well, ignorance isn’t really bliss…it’s just ignorance. The Senate hearings are sparks flying, profound questions about qualifications, experience, temperament, loyalties and overall fitness for the position.So…bash the government, Haw Haw, Haw Funny!R.I.P. USA

Wife (RIP) had a cousin who did that and ended up in a wheelchair from then-on.

That happened to a cousin of mine, who didn’t realize the tide had gone out. He spent the rest of his life in a motorized wheelchair.

Is this what Trump claims is wrong with diversity?

when the tRUMP zombies won’t answer a single question

and just as paralyzed….

People, this is why the comment choice is removed from the political comic strips.

Way to much water in the moat.

The rubber stamps are inked and waiting.

Shouldn’t jump in the gene pool…

Well said, gentlemen!

So true, and the republicans have remained the champs for decades. Spent 4 years investigating President Biden and found nothing but fake whistleblowers and accusations but not a shred of evidence, while ignoring real evidence or even to look at other’s republican’s crimes.

I see this as a comment on the legislature as a whole, and, by extension, the two-party system. Not that multi-party parliamentary systems are that much better, but both are an improvement over any authoritarian system which lends itself to much more abuse. Even if there have been beneficent kings and dictators in the past, the horrors emanating from those systems are much more common.
