1. I would only disagree with his final sentence...I'd change "astonishing" to "totally predictable".

2. It can be both predictable and astonishing on different levels.
I.E. astonishing in this day and age.

5. I know, and you're right of course. Just wanted to express how predictable it is.
I guess I was thinking of astonishing as in being a surprise. On that level it's not astonishing, but ,yeah, when you think about what this country and democracy is supposed to be, then yes, it's utterly astonishing that they're getting away with everything they are , as you say, "in this day and age".
