Will appointment of Elizabeth Warren be a bone thrown?

Sorry, Mr. President but I doesn't do windows or bones. As a matter of fact, I doesn't even enjoy table crumbs.

To take something as simple as the appointment of a department head and prolong it as long as you have for whatever reason is cruel and mean. Please pardon me if I take offense. You are the President. You are 'de man!' If you are having problems with the appointment, you should tell us what they are.

Of course I will be happy when and if Ms. Warren gets the appointment but my warm feelings regarding the process and the route taken will not diminish. What could have been a great celebratory event has now turn into, β€œNaw, do I have tuh?”
As always,
