    Was he on this committee? I have not seen a list of names.

    I misread a preposition, from instead of for.

          So Al Green can only expect support from his own party if he’s on certain committees?

            Sorry, I misread your comment as you were asking where the support FROM Al Green was, not for him.

            I think nokturne might have read “from Al Green”. I did at first

              You are correct… I did read from. Whoops.

                Ah no biggie, you did come off as someone with a bit different way of thinking.

                Thanks for clarifying

          Yes, but that’s not the point.

            I have already twice admitted to having misread a preposition in the comment, I read from rather than for.

              Oh, I wasn’t trying to rag on you. I just liked the image you put in my head.
