Dang, Kitty we didn't know you got the business yourself. We would have SO come help had we known.Yeah- we never give up and Shy and Tix helped us once last year when we got mobbed over the nasty o c c u p a t i o n dialectic (sore spot for lots of Dems, we know!). But we are getting a bit nown and nobody could iagine we are true trolls. We will jump in to help others (as we have before) and let steady influence be our hope (as the I CHING says).You are nice. Thanks.This helps.

I'm sorry people are dickheads sometimes - even good people. I had a similar situation here recently, when I was defending a friend who was attacked, so I can sympathize. Little or no support, which is not what I'd expect from people I've come to think of as "friends".

After pondering it a day or two, I decided that there is enough value to this site - in people and in commentary - to keep me coming back. Why did my "friends" not come to my aid? I don't know - there are many possible explanations and, in truth, I don't know anyone on here well enough to merit that kind of expectation. I can only a.) make damn sure *I* rally 'round my buds when needed; b.) hope they'll do better next time.

And as for the attackers - well, to quote my husband - "Now you know who to ignore in the future..."

PS - The "new commentator" was probably an actual troll (there've been a lot lately) - fuck that guy.

Manafort bought 8 days, until July 31, by complaining about the "document dump." Eight (8) days. This is how they roll.

I have socks that are smarter than Page and Dershowitz combined.

I see Page as just another dupe. Thinking that he was becoming somebody without ever considering the consequences or the intelligence of those around him.Especially the intelligence communities. I mean, its only their jobs, they are only professionals that know his BS inside and out. He could surely fool them. DOH!

Jesus Christ. If Carter Page weren't guilty, why would he adopt the party-line rhetoric regarding the FISA documents. He outs himself.

Does this guy *really* have a PhD??? He has notable issues with basic grammar ( subject/verb agreement ) and a remarkably limited vocabulary. Maybe tRump Uni?

He's smiling because he's happy. It's all about him. His narcissism needle is spinning on the chart and all eyes are on him. It's how Trump feels or makes it happens when he thinks he's not being discussed.

Except that Avenatti represents a decent person telling the truth, and Deshowitz does not. You know, that little detail.

Midas turned every material thing he touched to gold. Trump turns every living person who touches him to shit.
