It's rare that I have words of reassurance for Republican members of the House

From Raw Story today comes this article: https://www.rawstory.com/2018/03/house-republicans-realizing-ending-russia-investigation-soon-made-look-ridiculous/?comments=disqus

The article begins with the sentence: "House Republicans appear to be realizing that they undermined their credibility when they reported their conclusions about the Russia investigation this week."

I have comforting news for those Republicans of the House of Representatives that might harbor such fears:

Dear House Republicans,

Fear not! When you reported your ridiculous conclusions about the Russia investigation, you in fact did NOT undermine your credibility. There is no way that could have happened, because it has been a long time since you had any credibility whatsoever. You cannot undermine what was no longer there in the first place.

You can sleep easy tonight.

You're welcome.

Your friendly and sympathetic Democrat,

DFW
