Have I told you guys we had chicken curry for dinner two nights ago, and then yesterday I had the leftovers for lunch?

Well no, you may say, but why should we care?

Because I've just noticed that my armpits smell faintly of curry!

It is not the event, it is the after press he is exploiting.
If you don't want to tangle with someone clearly smarter than you, then you can fuck off out of my thread.

Not even a goddamn clue what a Resolution even is, and I'm supposed to believe this dumbshit is a former Navy SEAL with JSOC?

HA HA HA HA!

The Official Congressional Record isn't the same as "History Books". When your PM stands up and reads whatever he or she reads to thank whoever it is they're thanking, it becomes part of the Official Record. In the U.S. House, it's not recorded, making it a part of the Official Record, unless it's voted on.

The "Thanks of Congress" is a 200+ year protocol; one of many that serve as an official acknowledgement, with no harms to future missions or anyone reputation.
Oh yea! Thank GOD for that, since if they political hacks didn't do it someone might have forgot about it! Hell, I hope they recorded the Twin Towers coming down in case someone might have forgot that event as well.

Waste of frigging taxpayer dollars.....

Ok, but when the individuals can't be named... i guess it's just on a par with not understanding why many Brits are still Ok with having a Monarch. It's a cultural thing.

Anyway, I think I'll go do some gardening. Not sure why I've been feeling so defensive of merc today, but it doesn't seem to be helping at all. lol

The Congressional Record provide an incredible snapshot of the perspective of the nation's highest legislative body on important national events of the day for any time in the last 200+ years that you cant find anywhere else.

Fascinating reading if you like that kind of stuff.
