      But that leaves over 320 million people in this country who can't do a better job.

        Yep.

        Senator Orrin Hatch (R-Utah), who has been in the U.S. Senate for the last 40 years, announced last week that he will seek an eighth consecutive term in 2018. When Hatch won election to the Senate in 1976, he made term limits a key piece of his campaign against a three-term incumbent. “Senator, you have…

          Slow down Frank, it was a joke about how hard it is to find a phone book these days. Nothing more.
          Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

            Maybe he forgot to mention what he thought the term limit should be.

                      OK, gravity challenged gook... is that better?


                      Edit: Obviously "gook" isn't waisis given it's McCain's favorite slang word.

                        I am not sure those links support the claim that he was originally elected largely on a claim of term limits. It clearly doesn't matter, as he did urge term limits in later elections, but I actually worked as a researcher on his original campaign and just don't recall term limits as we now know them (other than claiming Frank Moss had been in too long) being a feature of his campaign. No matter; I realize it isnt germane or important
                        PLesa excuse the tpyos.

                              MBN can correct me, but I am pretty sure a big part of what those folks do is facilitate business between the two countries. So what he saves in salaries he will more than lose in lost revenue to the US.

                              Another accomplishment!

                                Trump thinks those guys are just fired now by the Department of State? Did he fire them- why would they be off the "payroll?" Or was this his attempt at a tongue-in-cheek remark? I know he wouldn't get sassy with the President.
