It might behoove the Democrats (and many liberals in general) should read the Constitution. Today, we’ll focus on Article 1, Section 6:

No Senator or Representative shall, during the Time for which he was elected, be appointed to any civil Office under the Authority of the United States which shall have been created, or the Emoluments whereof shall have been increased during such time; and no Person holding any Office under the United States, shall be a Member of either House during his Continuance in Office.

So what does that mean, one might ask? Well, in the past Congress has lowered the pay for positions where a Senator or Representative is moving into an post such as the Secretary of State. This, to some, takes care of the emoluments (wordly wise word of the day). However, this still doesn’t get around the first part which is pretty clear. It will be interesting to see how this plays out as it happened under President Richard Nixon who had nominated William Saxby (R) for the AG post. Ten democrats in Congress voted against the appointment based on these rules. In fact, Sen. Byrd, said, “we should not delude the American people into thinking a way can be found around the constitutional obstacle.” Will there be consistency here? or will the democrats now adopt the “Saxby fix”.

GorT

GorT is an eight-foot-tall robot from the 51ˢᵗ Century who routinely time-travels to steal expensive technology from the future and return it to the past for retroinvention. The profits from this pay all the Gormogons’ bills, including subsidizing this website. Some of the products he has introduced from the future include oven mitts, the Guinness widget, Oxy-Clean, and Dr. Pepper. Due to his immense cybernetic brain, GorT is able to produce a post in 0.023 seconds and research it in even less time. Only ’Puter spends less time on research. GorT speaks entirely in zeros and ones, but occasionally throws in a ڭ to annoy the Volgi. He is a massive proponent of science, technology, and energy development, and enjoys nothing more than taking the Czar’s more interesting scientific theories, going into the past, publishing them as his own, and then returning to take credit for them. He is the only Gormogon who is capable of doing math. Possessed of incredible strength, he understands the awesome responsibility that follows and only uses it to hurt people.
