36. All due respect, but I'm kinda pissed ATM about this tax thing ...

Hopefully I have earned the imprimatur, in your eyes, in some sense, to complain.

Neal already gave a deadline, and got blown off. Now he writes another letter, granting another 10 days, and is only asking for a DECISION from Rettig ... within 10 days?

Like ... there shouldn't be the OPTION of a f***ing DECISION?!?

The law is clear. There's NO DECISION INVOLVED HERE.

SOOOO, yeah ... sometimes Democrats in power ANNOY me with their apparent lack of urgency and what feels like an overly-conciliatory demeanor towards these f***ing criminals ... and I'm likely going to mention it, at least from time to time.

And I'd do that whether I'm a star member or not
