    I'm able to post it, but you can move your sausage fingers and tap out the search terms yourself. Or you could read the link in the post that I cited for you.

    You're welcome.

    Were you referring to this?

    So what recommendations did the kangaroo court put forth in line with what it was tasked with?

    Fine. If there's no 'there' there, then no doubt that will be the conclusion. Nevertheless, I remember that, in the beginning, everybody thought that WATERGATE was just some sort of "LOL" bullshit, too....

    Never read "Crime and Punishment"? I found it to be deep, depressing, and intriguing (like many things "Russian"), but, very instructive about criminal behaviors, rationalizations that criminals use to justify to their crimes, and the patience often required of criminal investigators in following the emerging clues to conclusions.

    Courts applying the law to the facts aren't "kangaroo courts".

    You call it what you prefer and quit trying to get me to conform to your opinion. Ok?

    No. That kind of post is contorting what the rule of law is. That's not only wrong, but is dangerous to our future as a nation rooted in the rule of law. I will correct it where I see it.

    No, you aren't, because you know it doesn't exist.

    Expressing an opinion and questioning our government is very healthy for our future as a nation.

    Maybe a healthy nation isn't their thing.

    We won't call them lawful because your side did not. We will use the same arguments, the same language the same 'constitutional' claptrap. We will parrot it all. These are the rules you liked for years. Enjoy them now!

    We learn the lessons of partisan warfare from you. We will apply them. When the voters consistently punish hyperpartisanship , we will learn different lessons.

    You must be young. The partisan warfare has been around for decades.

    The 1-6 committee will have the information for 15 minutes before the committee is disbanded or re-purposed.
    And the lesson we learn is to fight those subpoenas until the timeclock runs out on anyone with authority and time to do anything with the information.

    I am 60. I know the difference between partisan gamesmanship and real warfare. Hyperpartisanship is now literally the only driving or motivating force in Washington.

    I'm not young, and it hasn't been around as long --at least not like this---as you claim.

    That prick Newt Gingrich really got it rolling.

    How is reciting history "moving the goalposts"? The overuse of inapplicable cliches does not score internet points.
