Pass the salt and butter

Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list

I was told that one cannot refuse the subpoena, but you don't necessarily have to show up.
3 branches - executive, legislative, judicial.

It’s eaaasy, Cho... just do like Napolitano and Holder and answer...”I dunno, I dunno, I dunno...”
“”Geez. Does all this popcorn make a person fat?
Pass the salt and butter “”
Skip the butter!!!
Does this 535 million dollars make my butt look fat?
It sure isn’t peanuts.
Bingo!
I can hear it now: ‘I don’t know’...’Not that I was aware’...’I will get back to you in writing’.
