sock it ... to me? Yesterday, TalkingPointsMemo broke the news that in his congratulations call from Argentina, President-elect Donald Trump shook down the Argentine president for some building permits like a common Tony Soprano. All the mainstream newspapers were very excited about it for about 10 minutes, but then Trump and Argentine President Mauricio Macri both denied it, and what are you going to do, NOT BELIEVE THEM???
Oh! Look what I found! A really old piece of parchment hand written with quill pens and inkwells! It says (among other things) ...
Article II, Section 4:
The President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors.
Article I, Section 3:
The Senate shall have the sole Power to try all Impeachments. When sitting for that Purpose, they shall be on Oath or Affirmation. When the President of the United States is tried, the Chief Justice shall preside: And no Person shall be convicted without the Concurrence of two thirds of the Members present.
Judgment in Cases of Impeachments shall not extend further than to removal from Office, and disqualification to hold and enjoy any Office of honor, Trust, or Profit under the United States, but the Party convicted shall nevertheless be liable and subject to Indictment, Trial, Judgment, and Punishment, according to Law.
That thing about whatever the President does can't be illegal, and that the PEOTUS thinks the law is on his side? Perhaps he should ask his favorite golfing buddy, who he invited to his wedding, and his wedding, and his wedding, and says is such a great guy, and wouldn't do anything to hurt his family.
And that list of enemies that Nixon made, and that was one of his impeachment counts? And Omarossa has admitted that Trump already has a list of enemies? Just saying.
He DID have a sense of style (and morphine), but not him. Apparently by 1928, Boss was an officially licensed supplier of uniforms for the SA, SS, Hitler Youth, NSKK (National Socialist Motor Corps) and others. The source is Wikipedia, yes, but probably good enough for purposes of our discussion.
I used enjoy watching "The World At War" because it was so interesting. Recent events have shown the narrative to be chillingly prescient. It has become very difficult to sit through the coverage of pre-WWII Germany and Japan.
I shall look into this. Thank you.
Your concern is noted.
Somebody described Linda Ellerbee like that once...I think a politician or TV critic said it.
Backpfeifengesicht!
He also wanted a National Health Plan, and was pro-gun control. I might be wrong on the latter, but I remember he made the NRA mad for some reason.
Hell, we don't want Trump to leave the White House empty handed. That wouldn't be Christian now would it?
You do know that answering your own questions is a sign of psychosis, right, sunshine? <'kisses and blocks>

Sehr gut.
Completely and irredeemably loathsome.

Not only saw it, but warned everyone. No one listened, however.

And less competence...
Sadz. No twitter access, blocked at work~
(I was confused since, not being much a twitter-peruser, "the whole thread" must refer to a lengthier screed than 140-characters or such would allow)
Nixon also liked dogs and could be charming.
