And she publishes a long long paper about it. The reporter is Jackie Calmes, and the paper is entitled “They Don’t Give a Damn about Governing” with the subtitle “Conservative Media’s Influence on the Republican Party.” It’s published by the Harvard Kennedy School’s Shorenstein Center. Vox’s David Roberts has read it and has some thoughts …
It’s 80 degrees at 9:00PM. I’m perspiring.
I went back up to Tripler today for another exam by the ENT guys. They poked around and sent the fiberoptic laryngoscope down my nose, looking for any tumors or spots. They always spray an anesthetic up your nose before they run the scope in, and lemme tell you, once it drains into the back …
