I remember when Grassley was in the Iowa Legislature.
Friday evenings, when the rest of the solons were out at diner or boozing in Des Moines, Chuck could be found in the house chamber, reading the bills that had been introduced for the coming week.
He was a rare species; dedicated, truthful and straightforward.

I can't figure out this latest development...

So Grassley first entered the sleazy world of politics when hula hoops and tailfins were all the rage. And Mickey Mantle, Roger Maris and Willie Mays were at the top of their games. Yet another reason why term limits are needed.
