    I think it's a mistake to call him stupid -- he just seems to have a penchant for stirring the pot, and sticking his thumb in other people's eye, and getting even with a passion. (OK, that doesn't sound very smart)

    The one thing that I DO like is that he's upsetting the status quo, and not putting up with being defined by the liberal media. Other Republicans seem to cower and play the game. That he's doing it in such a raunchy way is not pleasing.

    BTW, I thought we were gonna discuss how Reagan made the homeless crisis worse. =\
    Actually looked into that some more - seems it all depends on who you want to blame, how you write the story.

    It is interesting to note, however, that some of the worst homelessness is in regions and municipalities controlled by Democrats.
    The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

          Make a bet? The Dems are counting on the Republicans being circumspect in 2021 - they are likely to get a much more robust response.

            Y'all complaining about Nunes and Solomon appearing in those call logs should be asking why Nunes and Solomon were talking to Giuliani and Parnas at those key times and why both kept those communications hidden while they were advancing a coordinated but false series of stories about US ambassadors and Ukrainian interference.

                Are you referring to Adam "I didn't have contact with the whistle blower; oh, wait, yes I did!" Schiff?

                  Based on the Nunes interview with Martha MacCallum, I'm calling "fake news" on the story *at least* until Nunes himself has a chance to review the records. At this point, as I understand it, everything is based on what Lying Sack of Schiff has *alleged*.

                    If I were making that allegation, I'd really want to first make sure that these call records were corruptly obtained by for real targeting Nunes and Solomon instead of Nunes and Solomon's call records appearing in subpoenaed records of two legitimate targets of an investigation at key moments in what's definitely going to end up as criminal charges brought to trial. Because otherwise, you're looking at a congressman and journalist-who-already-got-kicked-off-his-beat-then-from-the-whole-publication-for-this-shady-business as being principle persons of interest in one or multiple crimes.

                    If I were making the allegation, at least.

                        If he had contact with the whistleblower, which for one, is just a republican assertion, and two, who the hell cares, and why? Schiff doesn't have anything to do with the whistleblowers complaint, which by the way is confirmed by evidence. So, seriously, other than your being told to care, why do you care?

                            They're in a constant state of denial now. There is nothing about Trumps behavior that they can't rationalize away, or accept, at this point. Sad state of affairs.

                              Really shouldn't have to prove it to you CP. It's self evident. The whistle blower made the complaint, and the complaint was confirmed, so what difference does it make if he met with Schiff beforehand? This, I gotta see.

                                You seem to be in a habit of typing stupid stuff, that, when asked to back it up, suddenly becomes unimportant. Then you do that goofy "parrot what the other guy said" thing.

                                You OK, Jim?
