    I don’t think Franken is resigning either.

    He doesn’t debate shit. He’s s partisan twit whose debate skills extend to whataboutism. Unless he’s undergone a major change in the six months that I’ve had him on ignore.

    Dick, I would never say you're our Skip Bayless. You're 1000 times as smart at a minimum. But I don't think you should deny you enjoy arguing. And there's nothing wrong with that.

    Ah, OK. I thought it implied I didn’t believe in what I was arguing. I do!

    I do enjoy it, not least of all that it’s the best way I learn.

    PS: As long as I'm here, time for a Skip Bayless story, told to me over 30 years ago by a Texas writer. NBA goes to Dallas. Skip goes to first NBA game. Has to write running. Sensibly asks for help. Other reporter says, "the basket gets scored, write down who scored it and look at the clock to see when." First basket scored, Skip looks at his watch and writes down "8:14."

    When my son was born, the doctor says, “What is it, Dad?” I automatically look at the clock and announce, “1:32!” That’s what 10 years of keeping running will do. I was quickly asked to check instead whether I was the parent of a son or daughter.

    Your loss. He’s like having a pitching machine that cranks up to 95. You’ll be ready for anything a conservative partisan hack hits you with.

    Ready? Why would I want to be ready? I don’t engage with partisan hacks, I ignore them bc they’re partisan hacks

    I wish someone would take a close look to see if the real story behind the Uranium One deal is that the Russians agreed to burn the files they have on Vince Foster's murder, which Hillary obviously did.

    Yankee is literally the only person I have on ignore.

    We need to define how we want to use the term "people ignored", because there are two ways it's done.

    A. The literal way. Which no one did, as all these sundry subjects were discussed at length and for many years.

    B. The ballot box way, where these people keep getting reelected in spite of their moral failings, because there always is some rationalization to make it OK. In essence, their failings were ignored by voters.
