    these assholes are going to shut down the government for no reason.

    seems like they shut it down all the time. at least in the past i could kind of see their reasoning even though i strongly disagreed. this time though it is just plain stupid.

    Haha, you bet!

    Well, I call bullshit on relaxing the dress code.  I say, show up dressed the way a professional we overpay (most of them) should be dressed, or show up with no clothes on at all.  Hoodies?  Shorts?  Casual shoes?  And they call themselves leaders?  Bullshit. 

    They need to take some lessons from someone classy like Wynton Marsalis:

    I'd have to agree. A congressperson should not be showing up to work in sweats. sorry, fedderman. not appropriate.

    Alanis Morrisette sung about this and we raved her for it.  Today?  Not so much. Well, we still have WAP so maybe we do?

    I wonder if we are converting back to the 50's where everyone on the outside is supposed to be prim and proper/prudish but, when the lights are out and the freak flag flies now we take exception to it?

    Or it's in public and you're an idiot?
    That's a weird standard... and I'm pretty sure she meant a movie theater,  not watching the Lion King on Broadway.

    I think both can be true; Fetterman could choose more appropriate clothing for appearing on the floor of the Senate, and we collectively could worry a lot more about the asshats who are trying to overturn our democratic norms rather than about what anyone is wearing.
    All those who seek to destroy the liberties of a democratic nation ought to know that war is the surest and shortest means to accomplish it.

    Agree 100%. But usually when someone brings up anything around here that dems could improve on, inevitably the “whataboutism” crowd comes out. 

    I’m firmly on team Both Can Be True.

    Every dem house member and senator should show up to work in a tan suit without a 'Murican flag lapel pin attached. Then watch heads explode.

    i agree. he represents his people. can't be doing that looking like you just got back from the gym.

    i will say though, the guy is like 6 feet 9 or something. all dress clothes would have to be custom made, which would be outrageously expensive.

    also, why does jim jordan not own a sports coat?

    And he should just start wearing raglan shirts and a tie. Never seen a sleeve touch that guys wrists in my life.
