Old Man Posted November 29, 2017 Report Share Posted November 29, 2017 On the contrary, the Occupant has already incriminated himself on obstruction of justice and/or witness tampering several times using Twitter. To paraphrase his predecessor, "Please proceed, Mr. Trump." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

megaplayboy Posted November 30, 2017 Report Share Posted November 30, 2017 Ideology over political self-preservation, I guess. Old (white) people form a very large chunk of the Republican base, but they haven't exactly been crying out to have their benefits cut by the people they vote for.

lemming Posted November 30, 2017 Report Share Posted November 30, 2017 I remember when traveling abroad, saying "I'm Canadian" would sometimes be helpful to not have to explain some USA insanity. Now, I'm starting to say it in the states. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonathan Swift's "A Modest Proposal" (1729) was a satirical essay suggesting that the impoverished Irish might ease their economic troubles by selling their children as food for rich gentlemen and ladies. http://art-bin.com/art/omodest.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hermit Posted December 1, 2017 Report Share Posted December 1, 2017 Most Americans I know like Canadians.

Old Man Posted December 1, 2017 Report Share Posted December 1, 2017 So Flynn has pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI in an obvious plea deal. He'll get minimum jail time on the one charge and, presumably, he and his son will escape charges on the money laundering and Turkish kidnapping projects they were up to their eyeballs in. ABC News reports that Flynn will testify that Trump personally directed him to make contact with the Russians during the campaign. Meanwhile, Congress prepares to pass a tax bill that will add one trillion dollars per year! to the national debt. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the Party Of Fiscal Responsibility. I don't even see how they could possibly pass that under reconciliation, but then again when have rules applied to the GOP? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Ross issued an on air correction where he makes it clear that Flynn talked to the Russians after the election when Trump was President-Elect, and not a "Candidate."

I've been asked if I was Canadian. I was also once asked if I was British, apparently because I can talk in complete and grammatically correct sentences. It's a funny world sometimes.
