Just recommenting on stuff that was on AOSHQ this morning.
John Bircher Democrats still flogging the Red Scare. Question: Do you think the Democrats really give two shots about ‘Russian Intervention,’ or is this just a hyped-up media campaign to get Trump? My impression is that to everybody who isn’t a hardcore Democrat shill, the general response is, “What? Now? A hundred years after the Communist Revolution, the Democrat party is suddenly worried about the Russians?”
These are the same people who were utterly unconcerned and uninterested in the secret deal the Obama administration made with Iran. The same people.
Update: Ace dissects the Media-Democrat Complex’s phony hit-piece on Sessions.
Also, Obama is setting up a War Room in his luxurious DC Mansion with the explicit mission of pursuing the impeachment or resignation of Donald Trump. Has a formed president, at any time in USA, sought to overtly undermine and sabotage his successor like this?
But this is where the Democrat Party is. No ideas. No policies. No platform. Just attack, attack, attack. It starts with Obama and goes all the way down to college student Democrat douchebags.
Megage a trois meets Coup d’etat.
Obama was paid $400,000 in salary, plus a $50,000 expense account, a $100,000 travel account and $19,000 entertainment account for each of the eight years he was President. He now receives $199,700 and $96,000 for office staff plus free postage for life.
Joe Lockhart was Bill Clintoon’s press secretary for two years.
Where does the money for buying a $5.5 million mansion come from and how do the Obama’s have the scratch to rent it?
Silly question. “People” who know “people” are the luckiest people with money in the world.
So, the Obamas will have Valarie Jarrett in their house as they had her in their White House family quarters and they will continue their cozy association which is based around just exactly what?
Conspiracy theories are a dime a dozen, but when they surround people who are known for their actions that keep emerging from behind a shroud of mystery, how can one help but wonder.
I can not begin to imagine how the Obama Library will stage his biography. To this day, what does anyone really know about his pre-presidency years? Sealed transcripts, hidden years, various travels, a remarkably barren trail of associates, questions about religion, birth, parentage, source of finances, still go unsettled. The conspiracy “freaks” have built a mountain of questions about this mole hole dweller. And Valarie Jarrett is not without her own slop bucket of strange coinkydinks.
My thought is that this Kalorama mansion is taking on the appearance of a bunker where all the usual suspects are hunkering down and strategery-izing and it is not about opening a chain of ObamaBurgers.
It’s a trick question, right? Of course the Dems don’t give two shots about “Russian intervention,” and it’s a hyped-up campaign to get Trump. They are not only the same people who were OK with Obama’s deal with Iran, they were OK with Obama’s attempted intervention in the Israeli election. And they are the same people who made excuses for every act of Soviet aggression in the 1970’s and 1980’s. They are the same people who blamed Reagan for the arms race and the Cold War.
As for a former POTUS trying to sabotage his successor, I can’t think of anything comparable to what is going on now. Jimmy Carter constantly whined that Reagan never called him to ask for advice, but I don’t think even Carter actively encouraged riots and revolution.
Mrs. Robinson upstairs with the daughters. Moochelle in the sun-room with locavore planning-menus. Valerie Jarett in the basement war-room plotting sedition. Col. Mustard in the Library with a Candlestick…
And, surprise, the usual reach-across-the-aisle Republicans are “boldly” lining up with the Dems.
Effing cowards.
No problem with a competent investigation if that makes people feel better but the Stupid Party could, at least, point out Dem hypocrisy.
My guess is that this another fake “scandal”. It lets congress divert attention from its own epic ineptitude.
Meanwhile back in Delaware, … Hunter Biden is sleeping with his brother Beau’s widow, Hallie ..with the approval of Uncle Joe and and his stepmother, Jill.
Joe Biden once said, ““My dad used to tell me you know that you’re a successful parent when you turn and look at your children and realize that they turned out better than you.”… [**fail] [**sad]
The irony, when it comes to trying to get Trump impeached (or to resign), is that that would give us Mike Pence as president. Like him or not, Pence is much more conservative than Trump on social issues, and probably at least as conservative fiscally. So the political left would be moving the Presidency to the right. Furthermore, if Trump ends up leaving office early, his base (remember those people forgotten by the political class, who voted for Trump because they felt he would be a voice for them?) would see it as proof that the political elite is out to crew them. This would ensure that they will support Pence (whom they will see as Trump’s handpicked successor) who will be running for President as an incumbent.
And don’t get me started on how the opposition (sorry — “resistance”) is helping Trump’s reelection effort. It’s pushing neverTrumpers to rethink. But more importantly, if Trump can’t deliver jobs to the rust belt, it will be easy for hi base to blame that on the rabid opposition that fought him every inch of the way.
do you think chuck schumer will call for an investigation into whether Hillary clinton’s campaign met with representatives of the Chinese government?
My, my. I knew the Obamas were progressive, but I didn’t realize that they were that progressive. *Sips tea and looks away*
Though to be fair to the Democrats, it sounds like the Republicans figured they were never have to deliver on that “repeal Obamacare” thing. Sounds like the Dems weren’t the only ones thinking they had a permanent hold on the reigns of power in Washington.
Some might call it Treason….
“Sedition is overt conduct, such as speech and organization, that tends toward insurrection against the established order. Sedition often includes subversion of a constitution and incitement of discontent (or resistance) to lawful authority. Sedition may include any commotion, though not aimed at direct and open violence against the laws. Seditious words in writing are seditious libel.” – Wikipedia

I suppose the Dems figure that once another Dem is in the Oval Office, the resistance won’t come back to get them.
The GOPe will be useless but I think the rest of us are about to get a snootful and play the Dems on their terms.
I wonder what the initial run will be on the first edition of the biography? And, will they be disposed of by huge purchases by labor unions?
Historically, books by occupants of the Executive Residence at The White House have been best sellers, no matter who the authors were. The only real disappointment was the last output by the former First Lady-candidate, which was nothing more than her I’m-running-and-here-is-my-requisite-campaign-book. The 44th President & spouse will probably do quite well in sales, particularly when they have not previously written about their experiences in public life. Will they sell $30M worth? Probably not, but the purchase price inclusdes a lot of residual PR for the publishing house and inherent goodwill by supporters of the authors so it’s probably worth it.
Scoreboard!
“11.It was pretty absurd this morning where all the Democrat Senators were claiming, “It’s unheard of for a senator to meet with a Russian diplomat.” Then, these pictures started surfacing of… Democrat senators meeting with Russian diplomats.”
And don’t forget about Ted Kennedy trying to get the Soviets to “intervene” in the 1984 elections
