Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
INCOME TAXES	INCOME TAXES Our effective income tax rate was 20.5% and 19.4% during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, as compared to 1.8% and 1.7% during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively. The Provision for income taxes relating to our pre-tax income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 was largely offset by a valuation allowance against our net operating loss carryforwards and other deferred tax assets. At December 31, 2018, we released substantially all of our valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets, after we determined that it was more likely than not that these deferred tax assets would be realized. The effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to excess tax benefits related to the exercise of certain stock options during those periods.
