Giving advice
I love when I have to tell political appointees how to be political.
"No sir, because they only put it in the conference report language and not in the statute, you are not legally obligated to do what they directed you to do, but I have to say you'd be fucking stupid to ignore what they told you to do."
(Of course, what I said "foolish," not "fucking stupid," but that's what I was thinking.)
Morons. As if they think they can screw around with the people who control the purse strings.
