Windowsill!?! Progress

And it was great in its time. Quite fresh.

Should be noted that back when things were normal, US advisors never suggested to fledgling democracies to use the same system. It is not a modern system. However, if a rewrite was called for today, it would not go well.

The didn't foresee so many politicians willing to give up their power. Congress is happy to watch their power be upsurped.

More importantly, a hundred years ago, when they stopped increasing the size of Congress as population increased, power began to shift to institutions from people.

Isn't she a guest in that house? Whose to say the lizard doesn't actually live there full time?

The remaining question is whether the D.C. Council chooses to challenge the congressional move on the grounds that the Senate voted outside of the 30-day window during which these disapprovals are supposed to happen.

“Pride and Prejudice and Muppets” is low-hanging fruit here

How does The Onion know what the Trump administration is going to do before it happens?

Clearly there must be a lot of leeks inside the White House

To the British couple ordering 2 lagers at Augur's Well in NYC: the reason you got a stack of $1 notes as change from your $20 was so you could leave a few of them as a tip, not comment on the number and stuff them all into your wallet.
