Intro

It's time for a reality check ...

Maybe we’ve reached the point of diminishing astonishment.

But I suspect that much of what we’re hammered with every day really doesn’t make much of an impact on most of us anymore. We’ve heard the same stories too often. We’ve been exposed to the same issues for so long without any meaningful resolution. We recognize that reality is rapidly becoming malleable, primarily in the hands of whoever has the biggest microphone. How else can we explain a society where myth asserts itself as reality, based entirely how many hits it gets online?

We know that many of the “issues” as defined are pure crapola, hyped by politicians on both sides pandering to “the will of the people,” which is still more crapola. Inevitably, it’s not the will of all the people they reflect, but the will of relatively small groups of people with disproportionate political influence.

Nobody wants to face up to the realities of the issues. Nobody wants to say what’s right or wrong – even when it’s obvious and there are numbers to back it up. Most of us are afraid to bring up the realities for fear of being accused of being insensitive or downright mean.

So we say nothing. Until now.

It’s time for a reality check on the fundamentals – much of which is common knowledge to many of us, already. But it might be comforting to know you are not alone …

I'm begging Democrats to keep the hearings going ...

I wish the Democrats could keep the impeachment hearings going.

I know that’s selfish on my part.

But I just love seeing Democrats continue to expose how silly this entire process is. The more they are on, the worse they come off.  Between the inane and irrelevant comments from bozos like Swalwell, Sheldon Whitehouse, Shirley Jackson Lee, that other pipsqueak from Rhode Island, and “what size pants do you wear in the neck” Nadler, there’s been a lot of high comedy. 

Mostly from the fake outrage from Democrats over stuff that isn’t actually a crime.  

You got to love it when a mental midget like “Ken doll” Swalwell pretends to be a Constitution expert and argues that you don’t need a crime as the basis for impeachment. He thinks “abuse of power” was also what the framers intended although they didn’t specifically say that. 

This might surprise some of the framers who set the standard for impeachment as committing high crimes and misdemeanors. Potato potahto, right? 

Maybe Swalwell studied at the Humpty Dumpty School of Law, whose founder famously said: “When I use a word … it means just what I choose it to mean — neither more nor less.” I suppose “abuse of power” means exactly the same as high crimes and misdemeanors to him. 

He's not alone. Shirley Jackson Lee said abuse of power was even a bigger crime against the Constitution. Mainly because Trump sought to violate the sanctity of our elections – the cornerstone of our democracy – by soliciting foreign interference from Ukraine, a country she famously couldn't find on a map,

I’d might take that seriously if the Democrats weren’t the same party that hired and paid a former foreign agent to get dirt from Russians to help Hillary in the 2016 election.  And if these weren’t the same blowhards who always oppose voter ID and steps to ensure that non-citizens aren’t allowed to vote.

That’s chutzpah. But you haver to admit it’s funny. 

Just as the back and forth over Trump saying “us” instead of “me” on the call.  Democrats think he may have said “us” but what he really meant was “me.”  They even had someone testify it was clear Trump was using the “royal we.” Except he didn’t, which is particularly clear when you see the context where he keeps referring to our country and our people when he says “we.” 

Again, from the party of Bill Clinton who said: “it depends on what your meaning of the word ‘is’ is.” Prevaricate much? 

There have been two primetime Democrat stars emerging from this crapfest. 

Schiff – that pencil-neck geek – has demonstrably lied for years about everything, from claiming he had hard evidence Trump colluded with the Russians until that was disproven by the Mueller Report, to most recently lying about his staff meeting with the alleged whistleblower. 

Or knowing who the whistleblower is.  Or about steering the whistleblower to attorneys who paid people for damaging dirt on Trump. 

And after the actual transcript of the call was released, showing how flawed and inaccurate the whistleblower’s account was, Schiff never flinched.  He has the balls to still say the evidence of Trump’s wrongdoing on the Ukraine call is uncontested. 

He points to all of his witnesses as proof.  

Honestly, has he not been in his own hearings?  Not one witness testified Trump did anything illegal or even outside his Constitutional authority. Not one said they had evidence he held up aid to Ukraine – or a meeting at the White House – to get investigations by Ukraine.  

Does he think the Republicans in those hearings – who essentially shredded the testimony of every one of his witnesses, and proved that not a single one them had any real evidence that Trump did anything more than hurt their feelings – agree with him?  Uncontested, my ass.   

Then, for additional comic relief, there’s Nadler, the Umpa Lumpa of the Judiciary Committee, who fell asleep during one of his hearings and routinely forgets his own Committee’s rules. Nadler’s the poster child for why there need to be term limits.

My favorite moment in the whole impeachment fiasco, however, was when he, along with Schiff and Pelosi, explained their rush and need to impeach Trump to prevent him from stealing another election with foreign interference.

Like that actually happened in 2016?  Really?  Mueller Report, anyone? And Ukraine could tip the scales for Trump in 2020 all by itself by investigating Biden?

I would be remiss if I didn’t give an dishonorable mention to two other Democrat loons – the Neanderthal Al Green and that other nitwit Karen Bass – who said that if Trump somehow gets re-elected they’re open to impeaching him again and again.

I guess nobody told Green and Bass that’s only possible if they hold the House after 2020. Which, by the way, isn’t all that certain after this impeachment clown show exposed what irresponsible disingenuous bozos House Democrats are.

Which is why, selfishly, I want the Democrats to keep the hearings going. 

Keep it up. I’m enjoying the show. Keep shooting yourselves in the foot.
