Deep down all these guys know what they are doing is wrong. This is why war criminals try to burn the evidence of their crimes. This guy is already starting to worry about the eventual Nuremberg trials. I don’t think he’s going to like any of the few places a dirtbag like him will be able to hide.

Your average TV viewer couldn’t care less about who’s in charge of the CBS News department, and the people who do care are probably the ones who hate what Weiss stands for.

I find it doubtful that they’ll actually follow her to CBS. CBS will just have destroyed what little credibility they had left as a news org. They won’t be able to out Fox Fox, so who’s going to jump over to CBS, an entity that conservatives have been told for decades has a liberal bias?

Er, we were still in Afghanistan while he was in office. He made the deal to pull out. Why didn't he 'win' Afghanistan while he was in office?

It’s pretty hard to take someone who believes in demons seriously.

When compared to a hot fudge sundae, a bit of dark chocolate is very healthy. But milk chocolate, that’s a whole other story… stay away from that stuff!

It’s hysterical/tragic that this guy is so ignorant that he doesn’t even know what committee should hold a hearing. He doesn’t know anything about the show nor does he seem to have any idea of how to do his job.
