Cohen suddenly realized that it is easy to say you'll take a bullet for someone until that moment you are looking down the barrel of a .45 ACP

Or as Mike Tyson once said..."Every fighter has a plan...until they get punched in the face"

The PIZZA JOINT is in DC. The BASEMENT is on Mars. How hard is this to understand?

An odd combination of sulfur, bleach, and fear.

A lesser orc, to be sure. He's too stupid to be an Uruk-hai (sp?).

I thought of Putin as Sauron, and Dump as Saruman, but again, Saruman had too much integrity, and was too good looking.

When Cohen actually flips, then we can get excited. Otherwise this is just more speculative BS. I've been reading how Cohen was going to flip any moment, for the past month. Hasn't happened yet.

That would cement this s**tshow's moniker as "stupid Watergate".

“I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo."So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.”

Nope, Dampnut is that ugly looking orc guy from the third movie. Putin is Sauron.

"OK, who kidnapped the old Michael Cohen and where did they put him? HILLARY, IS THIS YOUR WORK?"

We all accept by now that Hillary is an evil genius who has somehow orchestrated everything that's gone wrong in our country since 1946, in addition to everything bad that has somehow happened to our Dear Leader Trump (except, of course, for those things that Obama is responsible for...War of 1812, Pearl Harbor, Mt. Vesuvius, etc....), but where exactly does Hillary hide all these people she has purportedly kidnapped?

I've been scratching my head over this issue, but my dear wife, as always, has come up with some very viable suggestions:

- Hillary's giant email server is actually a hidden cabinet where she stores her victims- Hillary's pizza restaurant is not a child porn ring, like we all thought, but a kidnapper's holding pen

It all makes sense to me now.

Barbara McQuade has a good piece in Daily Beast today lawsplainin' to Mickey Sez Who that the toughest part is the wait. Feds have 1.3M pieces of evidence to review (and, apparently, a bunch of good stuff from Felix the-face-gouger Sater), so Cohen would be best served by staying off the air and cooling his jets for a bit to get the primo deal...looks like he'll need it!

I'm probably gonna get dive-bombed for this comment, but Cohen might (I say "might") be the John Dean of this administration.

I wish him and his peace.

I'll settle for any version of and/or Stupid Watergate's stupid John Dean. A pyrhhic victory would also be acceptable, and might derail the Supreme Court nonsense. Works for me!
