So you really disagree with what JSO posted?

think it was a tactical error but Schiff simply paraphrased what Trump was reported as saying in that memo of telephone conversation. When a Republican complained about it he had no problem indicating that it was not a quote. He called it a "parody."

That's way different from what Trump does. Trump just flat out lies. Makes things up out of nothing. And he won't admit that he lied when he's called on it. He just doubles down and comes up with some kind of complete crap.

Schiff isn't part of what the Trump zombies are calling the "deep state" anyway. But to the extent that Trump may try to claim Schiff did something like Trump does: No. He didn't. NOBODY on the Democrat side is as bad as Trump about just total lying and bullshit. NOBODY on the Democrat OR the Republican side during my lifetime has been as bad as Trump is with respect to that. He is just completely the worst. And it's a disgrace to our country that ANYBODY supports that guy.
Why did he need to paraphrase if he had the transcript in front of him?
It’s called political theater. :coffee: it’s what makes people like Schiff a douche.

Here’s your homework assignment. Go back and watch clips of Graham during Clinton’s impeachment or Gowdy and Pompeo during the Benghazi hearings.

Quit being tribal and soak it all in from both sides. :coffee: :coffee:

Unemployment hit a fresh 50-year low in September even though nonfarm payrolls rose by just 136,000 as the economy nears full employment, the Labor Department reported Friday.

The jobless rate dropped 0.2 percentage points to 3.5%, matching a level it last saw in December 1969. A more encompassing measure that includes discouraged workers and the underemployed also fell, declining 0.3 percent points to 6.9%, matching its lowest in nearly 19 years and just off the all-time low of 6.8%.
Also, the jobless rate for Hispanics also hit a new record low, while the level for African Americans maintained its lowest ever.

Interesting statement to use when defending JSO considering in his mind Trump is always guilty and never does anything right while anyone who opposes him should get the benefit of the doubt and is justified in their opposition no matter what. JSO would argue that Trump's broken analog clock is never right.

Trump is always guilty because he’s an asshole...not because he’s a Republican. Same for Schiff.

It's not about Trump being guilty or innocent, it's about everyone should have to play by the same rules.

No I'm at a hotel in Sonora, Texas, resting up while driving back after being in California during the past week. But my wife, kids, and grandkids are in Lake Charles due to a family wedding. The big concern about Dick Head being in Lake Charles was that his presence would screw up routes for getting to the wedding.

Which reminded me of how I hate the way they act like President is a king regardless of who is President. The person is just the Chief Executive of the Executive Branch. No way we should have situations in which airports get shut down, traffic gets all screwed up, etc., because the President is there. The person in the Presidency simply is not that important. We should not be acting like it'd be the end of the world if something happened to them. No roads should be shut down because a President is coming through. They should just ride down the road like anybody else does.

It worked out fine in this case though. Reports are he didn't interfere with getting to the wedding.

And BTW Presidents should not be allowed to go do political things on the public dime. If they want to do campaign rallies they should have to pay for their own travel and their own security.
Well, I believe that I must tell the truth
And say things as they really are
But if I told the truth and nothing but the truth
Could I ever be a star?

Though the public has paid for stuff long before Trump, I agree this should not be on the taxpayer dime. Also, throw out all the Congressional mailers and other similar campaign items.

I agree - particularly on the funding part

But campaigning on public time and dime is how we operate - and let’s don’t pretend it started on Trump’s watch. You were curiously quiet about this before Trump came along
