It helps for you having been around long enough to provide draft edits on the DoI and Constitution to your Continental Congress representativeExcept for the f*****g World Series. The Nationals sneaked up on me. Of course, they also sneaked up on some pretty good teams. I generally do pretty good on politics.
“is no more valid than @NorthDallas40 argument that the right doesn’t seek to resist those efforts because it threatens their ideals of a moral society.”
So your defense of an argument you made is to point to an argument I didn’t make?!
Factual objection “counselor”
Ok I just reject your whole premise then since you’re saying the entire right takes a morality viewpoint
NO president. as in none... would go to the hill to testify for this kind of crap. Your leftists are gonna keep bringing witnesses that say nothing until they get that one that has an impression that Mr Trump did something wrong. And then it will be non-stop 24/7 MSM crowing about it... completely discounting the 300 other witnesses that said nothing was improper. The Queen Bitch of the Left is not president. She wants to be relevant. She will stand up and talk to congress for the rest of her miserable, bitter life as long as she's in the public eye.
Yes he is. I can testifyYou should care more about how someone gets to be millionaires AFTER they go into politics. And a tax return doesn't tell you shiite about how someone earned their net worth. Are you really this naive? People like Pelosi/Shumer have far more leverage over people than Trump did as a private citizen.
yep. I am waiting for the charges.So apparently you are not wondering why Mulvaney, Perry, Pompeo and others don’t come in and dispute all this testimony if Trump’s position was not actually bribery? And apparently you are not wondering why, because they can’t dispute the testimony of witnesses, the Freedom Caucus Is reduced to attacking their character ?
Sorry, I don’t know what that means.
The left typically look at individual behavior and say “but is it legal?” And “if not, does the law uphold our vision of equality?”
The right used to, as a whole, look at behavior and judge it by their personal valuation of right and wrong.
That’s nothing more than a description of some of the natural tension between the American right and American left.
But with Trump, his apologists have abandoned any pretense of those personal guiding principles of morality that create a valuation of “right or wrong.” We’re now to the point where they’re using sound bytes to thread the needle of some procedural technicality like “burden of proof” or just blatantly mischaracterizing the context of “high crimes and misdemeanors” to advance the notion that the conduct of this man is acceptable or unproven.
That’s not just limited to this instance of conduct. Obstruction, theft from charities, kids in cages, grabbing pussies, the response to Jamaal Kashoggi, Hong Kong... etcetera. If it’s not covered by “but Obama*” or “just like any other president” then it’s “that’s within his article II power.”
None of that is compatible with the Republican Party I supported. It doesn’t conserve anything and it puts slack in the line representing that tension I described above.
The point was not what the government should impose on people, that’s backwards, that’s what’s being capitulated to. It’s about what sense of morality the people should impose on their elected officials.
I didn't think it would turn out well for the radical left, it went even worse for them then I thought it would. Pelosi has to be fuming over her 18th martini for the dayThis whole thing looks to me like a bunch of pencil pushing desk jockeys, who were butthurt at being ignored by the new administration, are willing to be used by a bunch of subversive Communists to overturn an election.
