I've developed the obnoxious habit of checking into MSNBC on my electrical tellie in the morning. To say that Joe and Mika run the best of the bleary-eyed wakeups is to damn with faint praise. And maybe I like having my intelligence insulted.
Such as with the large-print banner on this morning's discussion of congresscritters wandering in to their offices determined to increase their net worth before lunch through bold stock-market investments.
The banner asks, "Do Lawmakers Benefit from Insider Trading?"
Here comes the adult language.
"Does a bear shit in the woods?"
This hasn't been news since at least the Lincoln Administration.

The solution is a Constitutional amendment requiring Congress to obey the Constitution by not chartering railroads or financing silly solar-power adventures, etc.
If you snort something back at me about circular reasoning, you are a clear-eyed, intelligent citizen of the Republic, and I love you.
