"Demolished" is mild -- they ripped that sucker up and mopped the floors with it. I've been reading it with increasing pleasure and giggling as I go. That probably makes me a bad person . . .

Well, yes, mopped up is a good description.

That's what happens when government lawyers are recruited from Liberty University Law School.
