Both sides have a rap sheet of transgressions and lies and black-ops and election-rigging, etc. One side's is far longer and worse than the other's. But, when it comes time to make a power grab by trying to impeach the other side, why bother reaching for a bunch of shit made-up out of thin air, when there'd be ample material that's true to use against your enemies? That is, if the material doesn't harm you or your shadowy allies by uncovering your own pile of rancid shit. Remains to be seen, if there's more than one pile of shit to be discovered here, not just donkey shit but elephant shit, too. I trust Cummings to bring the pachyderm feces up, if there's any to be found. Just like I kind of sort of, yeah, trust Issa in this one narrow temporary context, given his likely goal of undermining the Democratic executive branch, which, what, is there not reason to suspect this current administration of foul play in some places, some actions? Really? The GOPigs tried to bring down Bubba for lying under oath about a hummer. But, would there not have been more authentically-impeachable material to use, had those Repukes wanted to open up some cans of whoopass wormage? Are we supposed to excuse Clinton (and wife) for his corruption just because theoretically he might have been, what, blackmailed sexually or threatened physically for years, or something? That many years? What, he was that powerless to resist? Had to run for president, or else? Twice? He's a fucking slimeball, lol! He was handpicked by many of the same establishment elites who pick every other fucking president. Same with Obama. Dispense with the illusions, folks. There are few good guys who've ever served as one of the 536 elected reps we 250-300 million citizens get to "decide" to decide things on our behalf. The president has not been one of those few since at the very least 1963. Every president since, every year probably, has done some terrible thing worthy of an impeachment trial. This time, one of them might get caught. Do I wish it were Bush being investigated for a future impeachment by Democrats over 9/11. Of course!!! But, I'll take any justice as it comes. And try like hell to make sure Congress is populated by decent honest human beings of any party, for once, via elections.
