Yeah, I missed that. That's what running on an hour of sleep gets you.

Now, his thoughts on how the Republicans push their agenda aren't that fair off from the truth, but I'd say the same is true for the Democrats. I'm pretty much disillusioned by BOTH parties in Washington and would love to do away with both of them. Just start electing the people you agree with and not just because they belong to "your" party.
Yeah, I won't even get into my rant about this topic. I'm a progressive person which means I generally agree with Democrats more, but I despise the party. I'm too tired and lazy right now to go any further, though.

That's just off the top of my head. I remember there being a lot of partisan bickering back and forth but I can't remember any specifics and I'm too lazy to go look it up and remind myself.
I think the impeachment talks early on tainted things a bit, but the impeachment that actually did get through was a pretty legitimate process.
