Potpourri


Impeachment - "I did nothing in particular and I did it very well" - Chief Justice Rehnquist who presided over Bill Clinton's impeachment.

Iran - "We just want Iran to behave like a normal nation. Just be like Norway. - Sec. State Pompeo.

Overworked phrase of the week, month and year: "And at the end of the day............" a six little word preamble preceding a statement, presumably to give the speaker time to organize their thoughts. When Allen Dulles was running the C.I.A. and was asked a difficult question, he took fifteen seconds to light his pipe before answering. So, at the end of the day, the sun goes down!
