How did you book your trip, Tick?

We did St. Augustine on our own for two days, then took a RCL boat to Mexico and Cuba. For the latter, special visas required as well as State Dept. waivers (they are commies, after all).DooKSucks wrote:How did you book your trip, Tick?
Here ya go:bluetick wrote:Prof, I will address your quiz if you will first decipher the following:
WASHINGTON — Representative Trey Gowdy is known on Capitol Hill as a tough investigator of Democrats and a fierce Republican partisan. He is also the only Republican on the House Intelligence Committee to have read all of the sensitive intelligence underlying a contested Republican memo on the origins of the F.B.I.’s Russia investigation.
So when Mr. Gowdy, a South Carolina Republican, emerged as a strong voice contradicting President Trump’s contention that the memo “totally vindicates” him, his words had particular meaning.
“I actually don’t think it has any impact on the Russia probe,” Mr. Gowdy said Sunday on CBS’s “Face the Nation.”
Mr. Gowdy is not alone. At least four other Republicans — Representatives Brad Wenstrup of Ohio, Chris Stewart of Utah, Will Hurd of Texas and Peter T. King of New York — have said they do not believe that the memo necessarily exonerates the president on the question of whether his campaign colluded with Russia to interfere in the 2016 presidential election.
Again, I've been away and you know the in's and out's of all this stuff. Thanks in advance for your in-good-faith reply.
See, I don't get that. You disparage Mueller..a republican..appointed by a republican who was in turn appointed by Trump..for doing his job. The longest serving FBI director (two stints) other than some guy named Hoover. Marine, Bronze Star and a Purple Heart. US Attorney, US Deputy AG in charge of the Criminal Division, lists of accolades a mile long. A real-life American hero in every sense of the word.Professor Tiger wrote:The best possible outcome is for the whole Trump-Russia collusion to continue on its present Hindenburg trajectory - right up until the midterms. It will be a grand day when Lurch is forced to stand before the cameras and admit that after all these years and millions of dollars, there is no proof that Trump ever colluded with the Russians.
Mueller is a Republican like John McCain is a Republican. Like Arnold Schwartznegger is a Republican. Like Mayor Bloomberg is a Republican. Like Bill Kristol and the Weekly Standard are Republican. Mueller's party affiliation is meaningless as a measure of his fairness and impartiality. What IS a very good indicator of his fairness and impartiality is the staff he surrounded himself with. Starting with the two lovebirds on his staff who texted their hatred for Trump so frequently (50,000 texts and counting) that one wonders how they found time to do their jobs. A fair investigative teamwouldn't be staffed entirely by Clinton retreads like Mueller's was.See, I don't get that.

The midterms are the single best reason why the Republicans should let the whole Russia-Trump collusion fraud continue, right up until the voting starts. Maybe longer. In fact, the longer the better. The Nunez memo has and will generate all kinds of subsequent investigations and stories that will cause great rueage (tip of the hat to whoever coined that phrase) to the Democrats they ever opened that can of worms. From here on out, the mighty Democrat-MSM complex will have to deal with a wide array of potential PR disasters. Here are some delicious possible developments in the hitherto Trump-Russia investigation:Speaking of the upcoming mid-terms.. The reckoning is here, and no Republican is safe.
So far we know the FBI was investigating Page as far back as 2013, and Manafort back to '14, and that Papadopolous's comments to the Australians got the 2016 investigation ball rolling. Nunyas had his turn with the Steele dossier, now we await the part of the House intelligence that gives more context to how the FISA warrants were obtained. No doubt the WH will sign off on that any day now. With your full blessing.Professor Tiger wrote:In your absence, the action moved to the alternative political discussion platform - the Florida State thread.
But since you're all here, I have a diagnostic test:
"There was a dossier, created out of thin air by an oppo researcher hostile to Trump, paid for by the Hillary and the DNC, through several intermediaries to cover her tracks, that was used by top officials at Obama's FBI/DOJ, who knew the dossier's fictitious nature, yet it was used to secure a FISA warrant to spy on the presidential campaign of the opposing party of Obama. I think this is ____________."
Circle all that apply:
- Not true
- Illegal and the participants should be prosecuted
- No big deal
- Necessary to get rid of Trump and therefore justified
