So Mueller, a conservative Republican appointed by a conservative Republican, is somehow involved in conspiracies of the infowars credibility level.

Flynn's flipped and is tattling about all the naughty things that Trump & co have been up to.

Fee Chechnya and Dagastan.
Arrest Putin, the Criminal responsible for plundering Russia!

Agreed.
    I have to go further than that and agree with her absolutely. Math and Science must pass a sufficient threshold to get things done. Knowing PI to the 125th digit is more mathy, but will probably not particularly help solving any problem. Knowing Partial Differential Equations probably would help in many instances, but when was the last time they came to use for you in programming? Many of us learn more and more about math and science because we love it; we love knowledge.

    Engineers have to solve problems first and foremost. It's critical that an engineer have the skills to realize what the problems actually are. Perceiving the problems takes more than math and science.

    Computer programmers are not paid to write computer programs; computer programmers are paid to solve problems. Many confuse the medium with the purpose. It just happens to be that computer programs are good at solving problems.

Of course, Obama has every right to make a recess appointment if those chuckleheads can't get their act together. Looks like the next recess long enough may be in April ( http://www.senate.gov/legislat... ). If they don't hold any hearings, they might not get a say at all as to the next Justice.
