Nope

Y’all, we have to quit saying that Republicans can’t make the bar any lower.  They see that as a personal challenge.

Elliott Abrams, who was convicted of misleading Congress about the Iran-Contra affair, has been named.a special representative to Iran.

To refresh your memory.

He pleaded guilty to lying to Congress in 1991 as a part of the Iran-Contra affair and was later pardoned by then-President George H.W. Bush. Abrams, who was assistant secretary of state at the time, admitted he had unlawfully withheld information from congressional committees in 1986 when he testified about the secret Contra supply network and his role in soliciting a $10 million contribution for anti-Sandinista rebels in Nicaragua. Abrams also served in the George W. Bush administration and was an advocate of the Iraq War.

He should still be in jail.

As my friend Deb T says, “Next up,  Yogi the Bear: Secretary of Picnic Baskets.”
