Actually, the term go-to-guy is accurate, and it was in the Senate, but not the coup.
That's not really a coherent statement since a phrase taken out of context is neither accurate nor inaccurate. Only a full statement can be termed one or the other. That's what made that confusing. All I had to go by was the fact that you were responding in reference to someone else's post and what you said seemed to be a contradiction in terms.
I would have liked you more if you had stopped with: “Sorry, I just didn’t read that post through.” :)
