50. For some mysterious reason, the WSJ excerpt, that appears on the DU homepage
Sat Mar 4, 2017, 08:35 AM
Mar 2017

as a description of your o.p, doesn't appear to me when I click on the homepage o.p. link that the excerpt describes.

I read the article in the second tweet link, I just don't understand the mechanism behind why the text appears on the homepage but not in the o.p., when the o.p. link is clicked on.

Basically, Jefferson Beauregard wears two hats, privileged Senator and ardent flunky crooked campaign operative, and he switches with lightning speed between which hat he's wearing, depending on what the occasion requires. Need to commit a felonious flunky campaign operative act? Quick, put on that hat. Need to dodge felony indictment for that act? Quick, put on the Senator hat.

He changes hats so fast, he looks like the thing with two heads. Now, his 3rd head, US A.G., is sprouting up next to the other two heads, like that sleazy criminal alien character played by Tony Shalhoub in the Men In Black movies.

It's the ugliest one of them all.
