OMG... that SoB Whitaker lied his ass off right in front of congress!:
https://www.washingtonpost.com/polit...=.c80074f6b494At a congressional hearing earlier this month, Whitaker told lawmakers, “At no time has the White House asked for, nor have I provided, any promises or commitments concerning the special counsel’s investigation or any other investigation.”
The New York Times anecdote has not been independently corroborated by The Washington Post. But if it’s true, Democrats will surely argue that Whitaker lied under oath.
He should share a cell with that other grumpy SoB that lied to congress.... These people are just mocking congress and making them look like a house of fools.

I honestly think a psyche eval is in order. And I would like to think that Stone did that by design- you may not agree with anything about him, but he's certainly not that stupid.Originally posted by BlueK View PostThe judge needs to revoke Stone's bail after he sent out that tweet."I'm anti, can't no government handle a commando / Your man don't want it, Trump's a bitch!

I get your perspective but if Pence can agree not to pass on secrets to Putin and do all he can to advance Russian interests, he’d be an improvement.Originally posted by MartyFunkhouser View PostI don't want Trump impeached, Pence may actually be one of the few people that would be worse than Trump in office. I'd really like to see Roger Stone in prison.

Pence in the Oval Office means a new cabinet, which means that Stephen Miller is out and that somebody from an ABA approved law school can be the AG.Originally posted by frank ryan View PostI get your perspective but if Pence can agree not to pass on secrets to Putin and do all he can to advance Russian interests, he’d be an improvement.

-he didn't ask for a commitment from Whitaker
-Whitaker didn't provide a commitment
then Whitaker didn't lie (based on what was quoted).Last edited by Pelado; 02-20-2019, 01:58 PM."I think it was King Benjamin who said 'you sorry ass shitbags who have no skills that the market values also have an obligation to have the attitude that if one day you do in fact win the PowerBall Lottery that you will then impart of your substance to those without.'"

Comparing the two and guessing what some of the issues you might care about are, I don't know where you would see Pence being worse.Originally posted by MartyFunkhouser View PostI don't want Trump impeached, Pence may actually be one of the few people that would be worse than Trump in office.

LGBT issues: about the same
Gender issues; about the same
Race: Pence less racist
economics: Pence probably better -- I don't think he's a tariffs guy. Probably would care a little more about the deficit.
immigration: Pence still pretty hardcore, but not cruel enough to separate children from parents.
Foreign policy: i don't think he's such a fan of Putin, Probably slower to get us out of Syria, but then again, Trump still has us there anyway despite what he said a few months ago. Way better with traditional allies we should be friends with like Canada, the UK, Germany, etc.
Corruption in cabinet/competence around him: Pence can't possibly be worse. Probably huge improvement. I don't think he'll hire his kids as senior advisers or pretend they are good enough to usher in middle east peace.
Corruption in general/making decisions based on personal business interests: huge improvement
I could probably come up with more.Last edited by BlueK; 02-20-2019, 02:10 PM.

This is the guy that tried to ban Syrian refugees from coming to Indiana (Unconstitutionally). I'd say he's a wash in the Race/Immigration department.Originally posted by BlueK View PostComparing the two and guessing what some of the issues you might care about are, I don't know where you would see Pence being worse.

Pence is substantially worse than Trump on LGBTQ issues, just look at his record. Trump is bad, Pence has advocated hard for discrimination including housing and employment discrimination.Originally posted by beefytee View PostThis is the guy that tried to ban Syrian refugees from coming to Indiana (Unconstitutionally).

Gender is a mixed bag. Pence has sexually abused women, so he has that on Trump but he is still a substantial threat to women's rights.As I lead this army, make room for mistakes and depression

Not sure I've heard about Pence's sexual abuse victims. When you say "he has that on Trump", please explain your logic.Originally posted by MartyFunkhouser View PostPence is substantially worse than Trump on LGBTQ issues, just look at his record.

I figure he must have meant Pence has never sexually assaulted women. At least then his comment makes sense.Originally posted by Pelado View PostNot sure I've heard about Pence's sexual abuse victims.
