Further, the report will indicate that the Senator/President-Elect wife has learned to accept the reality of this affair, but that she does not particularly want the details of it made public. Oliver, this is a public service announcement for your benefit. You are not dreaming this s***. It is in fact happening. This is not your dream come true. Were it your dream, this would be happening AND Jessica Alba would be arriving gift-wrapped parcel post to Takoma Park. Unfortunately for you, that's not happening; she's with me in Northeast. Okay, not. But my general point: this is not alternate sci-fi speculative history, but rather in fact real, genuine history.
