1)  prank calls a neighbor

2)  returns a pair of jeans

3)  tries a Buffalo Wing for the first time

 

 

 

 

 

 

The skits aren't really funny, but the character is as funny as hell.

Maybe they hope it will be voted down! Suddenly, House Democrats want a formal vote on impeachment. 

 
The NYT reports.

The vote will take place on Thursday, and it will be presented as whether to “affirm” the inquiry... which seems to say that they don't want to admit that they were doing it wrong, just asking for an affirmation.
 
Democrats are good enough. They're smart enough. And doggone it, people like them.

My first thought was, the Democrats are in trouble, they know the impeachment inquiry is dragging them down, and they want the vote to fail. But here's how Nancy Pelosi put it:
“This resolution establishes the procedure for hearings that are open to the American people, authorizes the disclosure of deposition transcripts, outlines procedures to transfer evidence to the Judiciary Committee as it considers potential articles of impeachment, and sets forth due process rights for the president and his counsel.... We are taking this step to eliminate any doubt as to whether the Trump administration may withhold documents, prevent witness testimony, disregard duly authorized subpoenas, or continue obstructing the House of Representatives."
In other words, the procedural arguments are damaging and distracting, and they want to knock them out of the picture.

Why can't Pelosi be impeached? 

 

Aren't there rules to being dead drunk all the time?

 

And shouldn't it be illegal to speak in public and in front of cameras with your dentures constantly trying to fly out of your mouth?

 

15 judges have been impeached, including a SCOTUS justice (LBJ"s gopher)

 

and a US Senator and a Cabinet member

 

oh yes, and two Presidents

thanks, that was kind of my understanding from the wording on the Tweet Hedge posted, hence my question. 

 

Dems still avoiding going on record as to whether or not they support impeachment.

actually, reading the letter where it says, "we will bring a resolution to the Floor that affirms the ongoing, existing investigation" means that they will have to go on record. we will see however whether or not the actual wording of the resolution reflects this or not.

‘4 more years’ it is! House Dems’ announce planned next step on Trump impeachment (‘word salad’ alert!)

 

The House Dems’ ongoing effort to make their base believe they’re moving closer to impeaching President Trump without actually doing so continues with a planned vote this week, but not on actual impeachment:

The House will vote this week on a resolution to formalize the next steps of the impeachment inquiry into Trumphttp://bit.ly/2BMk0zA 

 
 
 
 

House Democrats now suddenly saying they'll vote on an impeachment resolution to “ensure transparency” is rich—considering they've spent weeks conducting interviews in secret, leaking their own talking points while locking down any and all information that benefits the President

 

We’re just guessing that after the House vote on whatever jumbled wording is in the resolution, they will return to doing exactly what they’ve been doing

As I said before.  The House has the sole, unfettered authority to determine impeachment procedures.  If the House decides the proper procedure is closed committee hearings without a full House authorization to proceed, that's entirely Constitutional.

 

Just like it's the Senate's sole, unfettered authority to determine how "advice and consent" works, and if they decide the Senate chair can park it and not forward it to committee or a floor vote, that's entirely Constitutional...

 

...wait a minute.  The Democrats couldn't possibly be exercising a double-standard, could they?

  Teasing like what Pelosi is doing would make the most bawdy red light district working girl envious.  Where does Nancy put the 100 dollar bills?

“I did not think it was proper to demand that a foreign government investigate a U.S. citizen, and I was worried about the implications for the U.S. government’s support of Ukraine,” Vindman intends to tell lawmakers, according to a draft of his opening statement.

 

 

Time for Trump cultist to attack another member of the military

How many different places are you going to post this same story in? Have you read it? If so, have you read it with a critical eye? Any chance that hearsay is popping up again as manufactured evidence?

“How dare he smear a combat veteran who volunteered to serve in the White House! And to call him a spy is beyond the pale!”

Ya, but Flynn confessed. Flynn is guilty of real crimes 

 

 

Speaker Pelosi: 

 

“This week, we will bring a resolution to the Floor that affirms the ongoing, existing investigation that is currently being conducted by our committees as part of this impeachment inquiry, including all requests for documents, subpoenas for records and testimony, and any other investigative steps previously taken or to be taken as part of this investigation.” She adds that this will set out the procedure “for hearings that are open to the American people, authorizes the disclosure of deposition transcripts, outlines procedures to transfer evidence to the Judiciary Committee as it considers potential articles of impeachment, and sets forth due process rights for the President and his Counsel.”

False. 

 

He was not found guilty of any crimes. He plead guilty to a perjury charge which even the FBI says he did not commit. 

 

But for three years the same media who is outraged that someone would "smear" a combat veteran breathlessly smeared Flynn -- without cause. 

 

***** off with that nonsense.

No he confessed, he was caught and lied about it and then copped to lying. 

 

Smearing someone one else just for doing their job is completely different
