Strange to see a busy office desk and no monitor in sight.

Even a person as naturally cautious as Senator Shelden Whitehouse is on board with the House Voter Protection Bill.
Voter Suppression is the GOP’s only chance going forward in a more diverse America.
It’s all Out in the Open now.

Another right winger defeated by lack of basic technical competence.
It’s shift- delete to skip the recycle bin…

I’m so old, I remember pictures of poor Rose Mary Woods showing how she inadvertently over-wrote a portion of the White House tapes.
It’s a theme with GQP’ers.

OT: last one for a week or so, but our last lady delivered Sunday afternoon. Please meet Peppa.
One more lady will deliver on or about the 24th, about a week from now, and that will complete kidding season.

Nixon was tame versus Reagan, versus Bush I, versus Bush II, and Vs the whopper in Trump.
Obama says the nation must move on and heel. He means heal to the establishment (ruling class that is).

Good point about the difference between “healing” and “heeling”. It seems like a significant point. Right now, letting things go would be like putting a bandage on a gangrenous wound and hoping for the best.

I am guessing everyone in GA GOP election circles was told to record calls (Trump was probably calling everyone from dog catchers on up looking for his Beautiful Votes). When the Deplorables startied with the death threats this one probably decided “let me delete this!”.
We can gauge the seriousness of this by how many days it takes Graham to go on Hannity and start screaming like the loon he is.

There is a small chain of lighting stores near me, GEM. 8 stores, no computers. The desks in offices have old grey steelcase desks and chairs. No computers. It looks weird.
I went to buy some bulbs the other day and there was a Lenovo laptop open and I remarked about it.
The young manager, son of the owner, laughed. “Oh that. No, it’s not what it seems. That’s open because I sit in the chair and prop up these handwritten bills of sale on the keyboard and monitor, take a picture of it with my phone, and send it to accounting. Seriously.”
They had a computer system ready to be set up before the crash in 2008, but they barely survived that, and never installed the computers.
He said he would have done very well during the lockdown, but supply was so constrained, they suffered last year too.

The first office I worked in had a main bay of between 150-200 people with several large, departmental typing pools. Few private offices or cubicles. I had come out of a tiny theater and restaurants before that. The first day I was shell shocked by the noise of the phones and the typewriters. Now if I hear a single typewriter, I have to stop and actually understand what that is.

Let’s hope the “moderate” Democrats (Manchin, Sinema, et al) won’t have to “learn” from Biden (and other Democratic senators) what Biden has apparently learned from Obama — that is, no mercy, no quarter re the Republicans. I fear they might.

You know why the recording was in the trash, the question is why anybody found it. That was a serious breach of protocol.

I mentioned Graham upthread, because he may be the most cowardly person in Politics.
