This is what Pat Roberts’ comment is in response to regarding the behavior of Wyden...only a few seconds is necessary...no need to torture yourself with the whole thing.

Democrats are such humorless drones, especially the turds in Congress. I include of course Al Franken, alleged former comedian.

Just read Mnuchin wants to increase the size of the IRS. Is that true?

Wyden basically made Mnuchin’s case for confirmation, which is why the whole thing is so funny.

On a local radio show, he once made a joke about somebody and called him Howard Dean without his rabies shot.

He’s been in DC too long, but he does have his moments.

He should have offered Wyden a laxative. If he did, Wyden’s seat would soon be vacant.

Trump needs to find someone else for the Treasury job. We need to get rid/near rid of the IRS, not expand the beast.
