Political discussions about everything

In the 1950s, Joe McCarthy wanted to "lynch" the career of anybody with a tie to Russia.

The Left was shocked and angered at that, and it spent decades in spasms of self-righteous outrage over it.

Today, CNN and MSNBC are in the same sort of Russia paranoia, albeit from the Left Wing.

A few minor differences, dummy.

"CNN and MSNBC" aren't backed by the force of law, and they can't put anyone in prison or take their money.
Kushner has been making tens of millions in the past six months, much of it undisclosed until a couple days ago.
So much for the importance of financial disclosures to know how Trump is doing, eh? It is unlikely that Trump's form, like Kushner's, would reflect reality at all.
So you don't need to cry for those scumbags, johnny. They're doing just fine.

Secondly, the Trump people actually do have ties to Russia, unlike most of those McCarthy was attacking.
Sessions actually DID have meetings with Russians that he 'forgot'.
Kushner actually DID have meetings with Russians that he 'forgot'.
Manafort actually DID have meetings and did business with Russians.
Flynn actually DID get paid by Russia as a foreign agent.

Why are you leaving out those small details in your scholarly assertion, johnny?
When you show us someone CNN and MSNBC scrutinized for Russian ties who DIDN'T have ties to Russia, then maybe you have a point.

Unsurprisingly, johnforbes can't tell the difference between abuse of government power and free speech used to uncover corruption and a real threat to the Republic.
They are fundamentally different, johnny. To put in in terms you might be able to grasp, it's apples and oranges.

johnny read the day's talking point from his handlers and it never occurred to him to actually think about the idiotic implications of the party line he's parroting.

See what your affected outrage gets you comrade shitstain AssClown.
Just as much as your butt buddy Dogshit's impotent desire for a 25th Ammendment impeachment.

Fucking Marxist losers.

Maybe you'll have better luck tonight in the handicapped stall out at the interstate highway rest area.
Bring plenty of lube,

You fag.

The only accusations and allegations I hear come from CNN and the rest of the propaganda media...
They constantly keep asking the Demos senators if they want to subpoena this person or that person to
to testify under oath and the senators always shy away from that question...rather they say
they are "invited" to come in and talk to them........why?

Because even a first year law student knows that you can't enforce a subpoena on
anyone you have allowed to publicly be known is the focus of the investigation....

And the media has leaked out all the names to the public ..... :o :o :lol:

johnny, you're straining yourself trying to make the two situations sound the same. They just aren't.

"The Right" actually wielding government power against people is simply not the same as "The Left" investigating possible abuse and corruption.

That's what the Fourth Estate does, has always done, and what you have always wanted them to do.

What McCarthy did is not theoretical or hypothetical.
You can turn off your TV and not read a newspaper. You can't just turn off a prison term, financially ruinous fine, or career black-balling.
Kushner is making more money now than before this brouhaha. And if there is no evidence against him, then his future is brighter than ever, "Left Wing" media or no "Left Wing" media.
A lot of McCarthy's victims never recovered, financially or career wise.
A 'threat' from the media is not even close to an actual threat from the government.
The two situations aren't even remotely the same.

Kushner updated his national security forms...three times???

Each time.....After "something" was discovered by the news media?

As Dickerson said today on Face The Nation about the Russian investigation...
No one is accused of any crime..

Meanwhile the Russians have caught on to what gets the liberal media excited....
So they leaked that the Russian ambassador met with Sessions...and the media swallows it :lol: :lol: :lol:

In the 1950s, the Red Scare was used to blackball a few actors and so forth.

Today, the Left Wing is trying to stage a coup against the elected president of the U.S. with sheer Russia paranoia.

So, yes, today is far worse.

According to Trump, Russia was supposed to be fake news.

So Trump is getting ready to pull the trigger on Sessions and Mueller...because of...fake news???

:o :oops: :lol:

"Today, the Left Wing is trying to stage a coup against the elected president of the U.S...."-johnfibs

You ignorant clowns really need to start using a dictionary. Or else you need to stop flat out lying when you know it isn't true.

coup--a sudden, violent, and illegal seizure of power from a government.

The most extreme case outcome of this situation is that Trump would be impeached and removed from office, in which case Pence would become President.
It wouldn't be sudden, it wouldn't be violent, it wouldn't be illegal, and it wouldn't be seizing power from the legitimate government.

It's johnny's sort of dishonest rhetoric that gets gun-wielding 'patriotic Americans' shooting up pizza parlors in D.C. because they think they need to protect America against liberals. Who knows what those clowns might do if they become convinced there's a coup going on?

On top of that, the "Left Wing" media can't do any of it, unlike McCarthy did. It isn't at all the same, and it certainly isn't "worse".

Shame on you, johnny, you dishonest scumbag.

"When did the President say was going to fire Sessions and Mueller?"-sillydummy

Nobody has claimed that Trump said he was going to fire Sessions and Mueller.

Why is it the only way you clowns can make an argument is if you make up some stupid shit about it?

In the instance of Moose-lle, the media outlets were glowing in their praise for her toned arms.

And the fact that she allowed others to plant her garden, then took credit for it.

And the fact that she had not been proud of America in her adult lifetime until her socialist hubby got nominated.

In that light, her enormous -- nay, freight train-esque -- caboose was larger that Teddy Kennedy's.

.....So Trump is getting ready to pull the trigger on Sessions and Mueller..... ~~ Elk
Clown to answer your question...Elk is talking about Trump firing Sessions and Mueller, right?

Are you saying I'm wrong and Elk means something else? :o :o :o

#91339
Yes....You ARE very much wrong. Go back and look at Elk's post, Silly Shit. See if you can find anything that is clearly obvious to the non-delusional
folks here.

"Are you saying I'm wrong and Elk means something else?"-sillydaddy

No, I'm saying elklindo talking about "Trump firing Sessions and Mueller" is not the same thing a elklindo claiming Trump said he was going to fire Sessions and Mueller as you pretended. elklindo didn't make that claim.
And if no one claimed Trump said it, then your post is irrelevant and pointless.

Of course, Trump IS "getting ready to pull the trigger on Sessions and Mueller." elklindo is right about that. Any intelligent person can see it. If you can't see it, then you're either stupid or not paying attention.
He likely WON'T pull the trigger, but he's getting ready anyway, just in case another of his uncontrollable childish impulses overwhelms him.

Similarly, Trump is getting ready to pull the trigger on pardoning people. He's been asking his legal team about it.
Trump didn't SAY he was going to pardon people, but any intelligent and informed person knows he's getting ready to pull the trigger on pardons.

Can anyone say "Silly ass word games" ?

Cause there was another. Elk absolutely insinuated that Trump was gonna get rid of Sessions and Mueller.

Why else would he post such a statement anyway?

Fool.

^^^^^ tvd agrees with me again and it pisses him off.
He knows Trump never said he was going to fire anyone, and he knows elklindo never claimed Trump said he was going to fire anyone as sillydaddy suggested. But tvdud still has to pretend I am wrong somehow. :shock:

Once again, tvdunce is pissed at me not because I am wrong, but because I am right.
It's a serious conservative mental illness.
