Not being a big fan of 4 star generals in general, nor Mr. Kelly in particular, I'm not sure that is a good thing. But it might be a better thing than what we have now.
The best we can hope for is an unelected military man running a putative democracy. What can go wrong? What worse won't this portent?

As a person who sound-associates, both songs have been beating to the point of mashup inside my brain for the past two days.

POTUS on Sirius/XM noted Scaramucci was escorted from the building.
I was hoping for frog marched, but I guess that will have to do.
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

With his "paranoid schizophrenic" remark equating mental illness with immorality, he's an asshole I won't miss.

Even if Priebus is a paranoid schizophrenic I'm not sure that's an automatic disqualification for serving in this administration.

I was thinking more on the lines of:
'You had your time, you had the power
You've yet to have your finest hour
Radio, Radio.'
It's amazing 'science' always seems to 'find' whatever it is funded for, and never the oppsite. Drich.

Unfortunately, it's my understanding SNL is on hiatus and probably won't get to do a Scaramucci.
Unless he hooks up with Anthony Wiener for a little frolic in the run up to the midterms . . . .
