Raising the Barr

New Attorney General William Barr
Faced down the Senate's self-appointed czars
   Yet for doing his job, being brave
   He may just have dug his own grave

Thank you for the appropriately lawyerly comment. I probably should have noted that while Mr. Barr raises it, Congress lowers the bar(r)...

I see you’re being called the wolfman. When I read your name I think of “Laser Wolf” from Fiddler on the Roof” :)

If I were a rich man, biddy-biddy-biddy-biddy-bum. All day long, I'd...write poetry or something. (btw, it's Lazer). Thanks, Kim!! :) Lazer Richman

Again a sad state of affairs when doing your job correctly gets you in hot water! I once had a Naval supervisor who wanted me to write about one of my coworkers. I wrote it fair. They wanted it bent!

You've nailed it. This sure is a sad state of affairs, thanks to the Witch-Hunters. They couldn't get Trump, so they're going after Barr...Moreover, they're terrified of what Barr may turn up about them and their ex-leader, Hilary!! :) gw

Holy attorneys, I have no idea who's that William Bar but I feel a swell of pity, seeing a man digging a grave for himself( You didn't really mean it, did you, Wolf?
