• Not Acquitted

    From Lee Lofaso@2:221/360 to Ron Lauzon on Wed Feb 19 03:15:50 2020
    Hello Ron,

    He was impeached by the House.
    The Senate failed to convict and remove him from office.
    That is not the same as acquittal.

    Yes, it is. By definition of the word "acquit".

    What was he acquitted of? The jurors did not allow any evidence
    to be presented. No documents or witnesses allowed. So what the
    heck was your dear boy "acquitted" of?

    Or do you also want to change the meaning of words to match your narrative?

    The House managers made their case abundantly clear, showing the
    president as being guilty as sin.

    I don't have to. He has already been tagged. Although he may
    be tagged again. And again. And again. Until the Senate finally >LL>decides to act to convict and remove him from office.

    I really hope that the Dems do that.

    The House only needed a majority to impeach. Which they did.

    The Senate needed a two-thirds majority to convict and remove
    him from office. Every Democrat, and one lone Republican, voted
    to do exactly that. The other jurors (formerly Republicans but
    now merely part of a personality cult) threw "we the people"
    under the bus by putting their god above the Constitution and
    rule of law.

    The whole impeachment circus backfired completely on the Dems,

    The House of Representatives passed both articles of impeachment,
    making the impeachment of Donald J. Trump very successful.

    driving more and more people away and making people support Trump even more.

    Oh, I have no doubt the House of Representatives can impeach him
    again. And again. And again. For as long as necessary. But hey.
    Not to worry. With only 259 days left until the election, I doubt
    it will be necessary for the House to take any further action.

    So, please, try to impeach him again.

    That's too easy.

    It's good for everyone other than the Dems.

    Much more fun to watch The Orange One lose to a communist.
    Or better yet, to an openly gay candidate. Just think of what
    that would mean. Rather than have a White House, we would all
    have a Rainbow House ...

    It makes Donald J. Trump a real bastard. And a true son of a bitch.

    That may be, but he's your president today and will probably be your
    president for another 4 years.

    Vladimir Putin's pet project will no longer be in office come
    January 20, 2021. So please, do not get your hopes up.

    Then who or what is a "legitimate" president? Hopefully one elected
    by "we the people" rather than one selected by Russia (or Vladimir >LL>Putin).

    That's for you to define.

    Jimmy Carter already did it for me.

    You are the one using terms like "illigitimate".

    Jimmy Carter said it first.

    Yes, we use an electoral college process in order to determine
    who our president is, or should be. But when that process has been >LL>hacked by a foreign power in order to install someone of their choice, >LL>that makes the individual selected an "illegitimate" president.

    The Left's "Russia!" narrative has been long debunked.

    Not according to The Mueller Report, and 17 intelligence agencies.

    Only the Lefties still hold on to it as an excuse as to why a criminal
    (Hilary) didn't garner wide support.

    She ran a poor campaign. Especially the last two weeks.
    But there were other factors, such as Russian interference,
    and FBI Director Comey's last-minute false claim.

    Don't make me laugh. Romney is from Utah. When is the last time
    a Democrat won a statewide race for whatever office in Utah?

    Didn't say a Dem was going to win. Just not Romney.

    There are only two ways Romney does not win another term
    as US Senator from Utah. He decides not to run for re-election,
    or he dies in office. In which case, he takes over as god of
    his own planet, in due accordance to his religion.

    Hunter Biden is a lawyer, the same as his father. He practices
    law for a living, the same as most other lawyers. I never knew that >LL>was a crime, or why being a lawyer might even be considered as being
    a crime. I'll bet he paid his taxes for the work he did, and is
    not afraid to show it.

    Then why are the Dems resisting showing Hunter's taxes? Where is Hunter,
    BTW?

    He's a lawyer. Does legal work for whoever hires him.

    https://www.mic.com/p/what-is-hunter-biden-doing-now-21735518


    And you still didn't answer the question:
    Why did a Urkraine company hire Hunter, who had know knowledge in their
    business, for all that money while his dad was VP?

    Like I said, Hunter is a lawyer. He does legal work for those
    who hire him. Whether in Ukraine, or China, or the good ol' US
    of A, Hunter is there to serve.

    At best, this is a conflict of interest.

    Not at all. Hunter Biden is a private citizen. Even when his
    father was serving as vice president, Hunter was a private citizen.
    Different standards for different folks. Unnerstan'?

    If it was all innocent, then the Bidens shouldn't have a problem showing
    that.

    Ukraine cleared Hunter Biden, saying he broke no Ukrainian laws.
    Joe Biden has also never been known to have broken any Ukrainian
    laws. Or US laws for that matter. Except perhaps passing a red
    light. But then, when he was US Senator, he always took the
    train ...

    But they are resisting. That implies that it was not innocent.

    Resisting? What are either of the Bidens resisting?
    Unfounded allegations, yes. That is true. But then,
    those who have made, and continue to make, unfounded
    allegations are not at all innocent. But everybody
    knows that.

    Like I said, he looked into it. She told him the truth. He
    believed her. After all, she was an honest politician, and would
    never lie. Not to him, anyway.

    A Clinton "honest"? Never happens.

    Politicians never lie. They are just expedient with the truth.

    Hilary created a private email server for her official use - in violation of
    Federal law. She had emails, servers, phones destroyed AFTER she was told
    to produce the information - in violation of Federal law.

    So?

    Yes, Comey "forgave" her. But he didn't have the ability to do that.

    As part of the executive branch, yes he did.

    He only said that he found no "criminal intent", which was a joke since the
    whole thing stank to high Heaven of criminal intent.

    His job was to carry out the law, not make the law or interpret
    the law. If you don't like the law, change the law.

    In Comey's defence, he most likely didn't want to die mysteriously (since
    that happens very frequently to people who testify against the Clintons).
    So he was probably acting out of self-preservation.

    Paula Jones is still alive and well.
    Jennifer Flowers is still alive and well.
    Monica Lewinski is still alive and well.
    Even Socks the Cat is still alive and well.
    Okay. Not true. Socks got stuffed but
    still looks alive and well ...

    So she wasn't or isn't the smartest cookie in the world ...

    *LAUGH*

    I make one truthful statement and you have to laugh. How dare you!

    Are you seriously telling me that someone who was Secretary of State didn't
    know what was in Federal Law?

    That's what she told James Comey.

    Are you seriously saying that she "didn't know" that setting up a personal
    server for official use was illegal?

    That's what she told James Comey.

    Are you seriously saying that she destroyed all those emails "by accident"?

    That's what she told James Comey.

    Dale was right. Serious TDS here.

    James Comey believed her.

    The Russians did it. Or maybe the Russians made her do it?
    Either way, those emails are long gone ...

    "The Devil made me do it" hasn't been an acceptable excuse for a long, long
    time now.

    Flip Wilson will be remembered forever, if only for that line. :)

    Be that as it may, he remains impeached forever, and not acquitted.

    (Yawn)


    With what I know of US politics is that "4 more years" is a reality as in WD>the current state of affairs I don't see what the Democrats are going to WD>come-up with. Sanders is going to succomb to a heart-attack soon enough, WD>Mayor Pete is unelectable on national level, Biden's campaign is going to WD>die a silent death and the rest ... ?


    Is there nothing more uplifting to talk about ?


    In politically roiled times? This soon after the democrats' impeachment show
    of shows failure?


    He's kidding, right?


    BTW.....Maxine Waters is out with her latest. She says the `Crips' and
    `Bloods' of LA have more `integrity' than Trump!


    She has first hand experience with both outfits....after all they get her elected and sent to Congress every two years!


    For those of you who may not be aware....both the Crips and the bloods are black violent street gangs who pretty much rule large parts of south and eastern Los Angeles, CA. Her district!

    There is talk of that. Maxine Waters is complaining that she doesn't hear more talk against Trump.

    I love the way Trump makes democrats and their useful idiots come unglued!

    No, they don't. Because it doesn't match their Narrative.

    Remember, for the Lefties, the Narrative is always fact. Everything else can be ignored with a "... well that's just YOUR truth."

    ... I have a firm grip on reality. Now I can strangle it.
