Can A Party Contemplating Placing Marjorie Taylor Greene On A Committee Be Considered Legitimate?

[Pellinore]

I find MTG to be a crass, unqualified glory hound who celebrates her own ignorance, but at least she was elected legitimately. I'm not convinced the same can be said of George Santos; McCarthy should have kept him sidelined at least until the fraud charges building up against him have been resolved.

"As" not "Like"...

The Media Are Picked for Looks and Voice, Not for Any Knowledge

A distinction in the meaning of like was even on The Sopranos. Tony said they needed someone like "Joe Bonano" to do the whacking.

Another mafioso objected, "But Joe's in prison for the next 5 years."

Tony explained, "I didn't say, 'Joe,' I said, 'someone like Joe,' someone who can get the job done with one bullet and no possible witnesses."

Wouldn't go so far as to call it a simile...
