(8,231 posts)know where this ends. Pay close attention to the CONDUCTOR since she knows the track well and she can see the last stop.

(10,306 posts)No wonder he's so eager to be impeached, he needs the cash. I wonder if that, too, is a violation of the Emoluments Clause?

(91,055 posts)They're free, but you'll have to get in line, as it were. Hubby and I were visiting friends in DC while Bill Clinton was being impeached, and we found that each senator was given a few passes for their constituents to disburse as they chose. One of our Senators signed out her passes for the entire day, which reduced the participants considerably. Our other Senator, in exchange for your driver's license, would sign the pass out to you for an hour or so, allowing more people to witness what was going on.
Anyway, I'm teasing about advance reservations, but to would be kind of funny to nudge them like that.
