        Anyone who is appointed know the position can be terminated on a whim. No elected politician is going to give up his secure cushy spot.

        TX Sen John Cornyn had chance to show commitment to our Country during his questioning of Sally Yates. He failed miserably & looked a fool

        After that grandstanding stunt he pulled during Yates' testimony, seems he wanted some Trump browney points. Lost some credibility w/Texas
