Do you think it is honorable to post depictions of people holding signs altered to show words and ideas they did not express? How would you like it if someone did that with your photo?
While it has not been proven one way or the other that LBJ said the exact words above, it has been proven the LBJ was a racist who used the N word regularly and repeatedly. Even snopes admits to that.
"Let’s pretend that Joe Biden had a different name. No, better: Let’s pretend that Joe Biden had a different letter after his name. Let’s pretend he’s Joe Biden (R), former Vice President under George W. Bush.
In that case, what would the Democrats be doing differently? Literally everything.
Instead of impeaching Trump, they’d be praising him (although perhaps reluctantly) for his non-partisan willingness to look into Republican malfeasance"
A friend was insisting that urging investigation of a political rival was the problem. Unfortunately,I didn't think at the time to ask if Biden wasn't running, if that would make the investigating OK.
The legal theory is that it is an illegal campaign contribution to investigate a corrupt politician.
If so, then is every death threat from Hollywood stars one too?
More importantly, if politicians cannot be investigated, then the law doesn't apply to them. Leaving the Booth Option the only check & balance. That's not a Nation we want to live in. And not a Nation we want them to create. And certainly a Nation we must not let them survive. Because they won't let us survive it.
Interesting, but in a world where folks are parrots for pedophiles like ( allegedly ) Bill & Hillary ( she was an Epstein Ranch visitor too ) it's going to take dramatic publicity to change inflexible minds.
OTOH, the Bad Orange Man specializes in dramatic publicity.
Thank you! Duck autocorrect! Um. I mean it's fowl. Yeah, that's what I meant...
P!utocrat? Sure am! Yah, you betcha!
My tremendous monetary power lets me walk into a restaurant and they get right to work! For ME! And then give what what I Order. Usually. After I give them some of my monetary power. And it's usually a double cheeseburger. I'm a modest Plutocrat.
I didn't bother to watch Patches's linked untitled video, last time it was some horrid pedo thing that the evil super rich Leftist scum now have me on record as seeing. No thanks.
I promise I won't link to that stuff...ever.
I suppose it could have been anti whatever but I wasn't going to watch to see.
Other thing my enormous power permits me is to travel on multi million dollar aircraft, to wherever I want. As long as they are scheduled to go there & I pay them. If I really want to go elsewhere, I use more Plutocratic power. i.e. I pay more.
I can only hope free flights on Epstein's jet costs the passengers everything.
Or was Plutocrat supposed to be an insult? If so, why?
At least it's marginally true, unlike thinking calling me a Jew is an insult. That just puzzled me.
I remember being upset when kids lied about what I was to my face. But by 3rd grade or so I outgrew being embarrassed by false accusations. Since I wasn't guilty, why should I feel bad? Angry, sure. Different thing, and sometimes the bully' s goal. I also learned to ignore them, and steal their perverted pleasure, or correct them. 4th grade did have me in the Principal's office a lot. That tapered off as the bullies learned it wasn't satisfying or safe to pick on me.
And slander as an adult is a legal thing where lawyers make others pay to lie about me.
It was easier to just deliver a bloody nose, but adults are supposed to be beyond that. Some never learn.
The sheep generally do not like the sheepdog. He looks a lot like the wolf. He has fangs and the capacity for violence. The difference, though, is that the sheepdog must not, cannot and will not ever harm the sheep. Any sheepdog who intentionally harms the lowliest little lamb will be punished and removed. The world cannot work any other way, at least not in a representative democracy or a republic such as ours.
And I really don't care party or policy. If Trump committed crimes, I want him in Leavenworth.
Defining "crimes" can be tricky.
Politicians have written the laws so police have some protections from frivolous persecutions, civil & legal. That's proper, police are our authorized users of violence, the Sheepdogs.
But the politicians have woven a set of laws making it far harder to persecute them. That's not new, every hierarchy does this. And politicking, the art of the deal & governance, encourages & demand a certain amount of sneaky & dishonesty to function. Controlling the rot is an eternal struggle. We have to keep a balance between liberty and anarchy and tyranny.
Seriously, we just can't hang all the dishonest politicians. Eventually, things would grind to a halt because we'd have run out of stupid political types.
We'd have to invent a whole new system. Computers, probably.
I'm not sure I'd want to purge the gene pool of those traits, anyway. Somebody has to do the paperwork and I'd rather be riding.
Agreed, but after careful consideration I think I would prefer to hear witnesses in Senator Graham's Judiciary committee hearings. That way some of it might go back to the Justice dept., for grand jury review, and possible indictment. If it comes out in impeachment proceedings it likely won't go anywhere.
I agree. What might work is to tie the chain of evidence from the Clinton Campaign up to the whistleblower to properly put in context how partisan he is. Then just simply say, these matters are under criminal investigation, and we shall speak no further on this pawns lies.
Or call a witness from Hunan and lock the doors until the next election.
I can't help but notice the custom printer bullet pens Nancy ordered for the impeachment papers signing. That's an assassination threat by anyone's standards.
Especially ironic with her manager repeating "head on a pike" over and over.
