His work is done here, the country is well on its way to destruction, now time to relax and enjoy his last few years. He can dedicate his memoirs to Lucifer.

I’m waiting for this same announcement re: Patrick Leahy. For some reason that guy grates on me more than all the rest put together, and that’s saying something. I doubt he’ll ever retire—think Ted Kennedy—but I’m still hoping. A senate w/out Leahy wd be a monumental improvement.

Announced the day after Pete Seeger petitions to be buried in the walls of the Kremlin. Coincidence? I think NOT!

Yeah, but it’s no fun being in the minority where you can’t impose your will on the citizenry.

But I wonder what sort of commie will replace him?

I guess the public treasury is really low. You’ll know it’s empty when Pelosi says she’s leaving.
