    You lie. I have never said, nor do I believe that the ends justify the means.
    Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd
    But I'd rather be a fool in the eyes of man
    Than a fool in the eyes of God

      Well, there are also those who are complicit in their support of those who are hiding their bad deeds. Although, I suppose it could be argued that they are not in their right minds.

        How Conversations go with Jim:

        Jim: “If you disagree with me, you’re a moral degenerate.”

        Anyone else: “I think you’re an idiot.”

        Jim: “Waaaaaaahhhh!!! Stop attacking me!”

        Thus why talking, with you, is a total waste of time. You set the tone, why are you so angry when you get your just deserts, hypocrite?

          My brethren, do not hold your faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ with an attitude of personal favoritism. James 2:1

          If anyone thinks himself to be religious, and yet does not  bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this man’s religion is worthless James 1:26

          This you know, my beloved brethren. But everyone must be quick to hear, slow to speak and slow to anger; James 1:19

              We've had weeks and weeks of endless rumor and gossip from the Democrats, and now they're being hit with the facts and the law, as well as their own contrary testimony from previous impeachment situations.
              Trump hasn't moved to investigate Kushner's Manhattan bailout from Qatar right after his administration put an unexpected and largely unexplained squeeze on it. Neither has he moved to investigate Ivanka Trump's real estate dealings in Iran with a Revolutionary Guard front-company. Regardless, such investigations, to be legitimate, would have to be run through the DOJ with a valid predicate.

              Constitutional law experts say that Dershowitz's argument is incoherent and ahistorical. But he crammed for a weekend so what would they know.

                Scripture Verse: Matthew 7:1-5, NIV

                “Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.

                “Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.

                  Hunter is at the heart of the corruption, regardless of how tight you shut your eyes. You guys don't hate corruption - you just hate Trump.

                  Well now is their opportunity to get first-hand testimony from Bolton directly linking Trump to a plan to freeze aid to Ukraine in exchange for a political favor.
                  Bolton wrote a kiss-n-tell book, and nobody is stopping him from spewing forth his gossip from the treetops, Tass. His publisher's best interest is for Bolton's book to be a salacious as possible to SELL BOOKS.
                  The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

                    Not to mention, completely hypocritical on his part. Lawyers have a tendency to twist the facts to fit their case.

                      Hunter Biden has nothing to do with it, not surprising though that you've fallen for the fallacy.

                          Hunter is at the heart of inappropriate nepotism of the same order as Ivanka and Jared working in the WH not corruption despite Trump’s efforts to generate a scandal at taxpayer expense to demonize his political rival.

                          Right on script.

                          Imagine having the audacity to want to hear from key witnesses in the impeachment trial. Bolton writes that Trump personally told him that he wanted to maintain a freeze on $400 million in security assistance to Ukraine until Ukraine did his bidding for his own personal reasons. Hence, despite your childish disparagement, his information is directly on topic of presidential corruption.

                              Whataboutism! Right on script!

                              Imagine having the audacity to want to hear from key witnesses in the impeachment trial.
                              Even sneaky snake Schiff said the investigation is over, so why more witnesses? Why should the Senate have to do what the House failed so miserably in doing?

                              Bolton...
                              ...who's promoting his kiss-n-tell book...

                              writes that Trump personally told him that he wanted to maintain a freeze on $400 million in security assistance to Ukraine until Ukraine did his bidding for his own personal reasons.
                              Bolton could walk up to any news reporter on the planet and provide his "testimony".

                              Hence, despite your childish disparagement, his information is directly on topic of presidential corruption.
