Do you folks think fast talkers, such as Jordan, are more intelligent?  Seems to me in a verbal bout, they have a clear advantage.  I wonder however if that means they are smarter or just have superior verbal skills.  I suppose verbal skills are an element of intelligence but may be over rated on TV.

 

I bring it up because fast talkers can often blow through a lot of points in a discussion without allowing slower speakers a chance to counter them.  Kelly Ann Conway is another prime example of that skill set.  An average person is often unable to dispute her statements as she has spit out 2 more before they can interject.

Bob I'm not saying he's a fast talker.

It's called the truth.

The left doesn't know much about it or care much about it.

I suppose you think truth is Castro comparing this nonsense to murder.

Not a huge fan of Trump, but this whole things seems to be about a bunch of people upset and saying "that isn't the way things are done." Who cares how things have been done in the past.  He is a new President and should be able to do whatever he wants.  That includes holding up $$$ to investigate someone, even if it is a political rival. There is nothing illegal about holding up aid to investigate corruption.

I went over to twitter and either saw they had moved on to something else (vast majority) or the #resist crowd was disheartened.

?‍♂️

I'm unhappy that I wasted the day on this. If this is their best shot, I am bailing on the other days of this clown show.

 

 

I was going to avoid watching any of it personally -- but my meetings got bumped to the afternoon so I had time to kill. 

 

Anecdotal -- but the woman of the house has been ALL about these hearings for the past several weeks. I just asked her how it's going, meaning her day not the hearings, and the text I got back was: "IT'S A ***** TRAIN WRECK!"

 

Still thinking she meant her day, I was alarmed and asked what happened. 

 

Her: "Schiff ***** the bed by is what happened."

 

 

:lol: 

 

Despite our differences, she's still funny as hell.

As someone who didn't vote for Trump, but who's long viewed the Intelligence complex and MiC with suspicion, that's what this is really all about. Unelected bureaucrats dictating foreign policy to the White House rather than the other way around. This has been THE standard operating procedure for multiple presidents of administrations past, on both sides of the aisle. 

 

Trump ran on challenging that notion -- and remember this. This was from January of 2017. Nothing to see here, just a sitting Senator threatening the incoming president on behalf of these same unelected officials:

Schumer is a perfect example on why we need term limits on these people.  No more getting rich on selling out the United States.

I didn't say you said he was a fast talker.  It was a point I was making.  Sometimes I think we all get fooled into accepting as fact statements made at a high rate.  A common ploy that I have seen used by fast talkers is that they slide in so many points so fast that most cannot mentally examine each one.  Often, not all of the statements are true.

 

I have not seen much of the hearings today.  I had some appointments.  As I began watching this afternoon, I did see Castro try to get that sound bite about attempted bribery/extortion being a crime though.  Hopefully it wasn't his best point or sound bite.

Schiff TRIPLING down on not knowing the Whistleblower in his closing.

Fine. 

 

What's your excuse for buying in fully to Trump/Russia conspiracy which has been thoroughly disproven? You're still saying "wait and see". There's nothing left to wait for. It's over. Done. Yet you haven't bought into that yet. Why? 

 

Are they talking too fast for you?

There were plenty of fast talkers on both sides today.

lot of talking points/ media moments.

Bottom line...still no facts or evidence of any crimes by the president.

Bob doesn't do facts. 

 

He refuses to read facts, or engage with them. 

 

Bob only does FEELZ.

Jordan was the Republicans de facto point man in the hearing. His time was limited to 5 minutes plus any time yielded to him. He spoke fast because he was running out of time plus he wanted to make sure it was in the record.

 

On another note, we should all say a little prayer for DC Tom today. He's on jury duty and knowing him, he goes in as a juror and ends up being a defendant.

Dude, your explanation for being unable to stop replying to my posts has been that you have to keep your followers here from being misinformed.  That is clearly not what you are doing.  You are just harassing. 

 

You really should bring this up in your next therapy session.  You need some help.  Honest  Take a break and consider it.

I'm not harassing you, you called me a liar (couldn't back it up) and went out of your way to cross post it because you thought it would be fun. So now, I'll point out out your continual dumbassery at every turn. 

 

And I will continue to do so until you post something that isn't dumb. It's very easy. 

 

Be better than Bob, Bob. Put the joint down and try ration and reason over feelz. You might be surprised.

DR is a liar.  Pretty much every page has his lies.  The whole anyone that disagrees with him supports pedos is a lie.  I mentioned that in the first post he challenged me to point out his lies but that has since left his mind.  He has a lot bounding around in there, not all of it seems stable

 

If you happen to think of him as a friend, you may consider offering a bit of advice to him.  The guy exhibits the signs of mania, to my non professional eyes.  I have mentioned this before and I am not joking, this is how coke heads get at times.  Either of those two should not be laughed off.

Presenting evidence, and opinion, is not lying, Bob. 

 

You're lying about me lying. Because, like the pedo proctors you laud -- all you can do is offer projection. 

 

Don't be like Bob, PPP. Be better than a burned out stoner who pushes lie after lie without ever backing it up.

And now he calls me a coke head. 

 

Again, not something a kind or decent person does Bob. It's something a liar does. When they have nothing left to argue. 

 

Keep going, Bob. You're really winning this argument. People here think you're a mighty intellect -- not a washed up stoner who has offered NOTHING of substance for his whole time down here. Not a single thing.

Hilarious, they just cut off Schiff's press conference to go to Trump/Erdogan :lol:

Bob, I don't mind anything you do. Because you're not a serious person and have no ability to do anything to me. You can't outwit me. You can't out think me. You can't out write me. All you can do is continue to lie about me (which are hilarious, not hurtful) and expose yourself as a petty, small man with a deficient frontal lobe. 

 

You're an asshat Bob. Nothing more. And I'll continue to point it out at each and every turn. :beer:

Guess I better add this one here then too just to be sure no one misses what a tool DR is that he cannot control himself.  He is a consistent jerk.  This BS today is far from new.

 

 

DR, why can't you control yourself?  I have told you several times that discussions with you always seem to devolve into you, the crazy eyed guy at the bar, being way too close in my face screaming about lizard people!  Yet, here we are again. 

 

Over the last 4-5 pages in this thread you asked me the exact same question approximately 10 times.  I answered it at least 7 times, pointed out that I had already answered it repeatedly, gave you a link to more detail, and warned you to stop the repetition or you would go back on ignore.  That happened....go back and look if you doubt.  You then quickly asked the same question twice more and then got put on ignore.  You claim to be innocently just asking but when THE SAME QUESTION IS ASKED AND ANSWERED 10 TIMES YOU ARE HARASSING, NOT CONVERSING.  That is you being the crazy eyed guy at the bar AGAIN.  Recognize that please!

 

As I have told you, I would rather not engage with you.  I have literally begged you many times to stop replying to me unless you are quoted.  YOU WILL NOT ABIDE BY THAT VERY REASONABLE REQUEST.   That is a little twisted and certainly not right, imo.  I should be allowed to carry on conversations with other posters without you interjecting yourself but your butting in regularly takes over the conversation.  YOUR REPLIES STIFLE THE REPLIES FROM THE OTHERS THAT I WISH TO CONVERSE WITH.   When I wish to interact with you, I will quote you.  Otherwise, assume I do not wish to hear from you.

 

You butt in and claim you know everything and no one else knows the real story.  That may or may not be the case but when adults are conversing and they have repeatedly asked you to stay out of their conversation, please do so.  While not public, the board is designed to allow posters to interact and have discussions.  Stop taking over every discussion on this topic..

 

You love to give advice.  Try listening to some for a change.  Stop acting like a know-it-all.  Stop butting in, even when you think you know more.  Others should be allowed to converse without your interjections.   Stop harassing those that disagree with you.  Please take that advice to heart.  I think it could help you to become a better poster.

More cross posting ... still nothing to back up the claims that I lie on every page. 

 

Or that I do coke. 

 

Or that I'm manic. 

 

Like the rest of your worldview, Bob, it's fiction. 

 

You're a clown. And you just keep proving it.
