    I see the forest and I see the trees. You only see the russian bear in the woods.

    Oh, you see the forest AND the trees, do you? Of course you do, you’re woke AF.

    You also predicted the Russia story was going away. How’s that working out for ya?

    Not so good, it’s only gained momentum, but that’s ok. You’re more than happy to push the distraction Herr Trump has laid out for his followers, eh? You’re a good little lemming, and cognitive dissonance is a wonderful thing.

    It’s all phony, right Holden?

    EDIT: Do you realize what a stupid analogy the bear is? Let's all ignore the perceived threat and hope it isn't real.

    Your mind is wrapped into a pretzel, stop embarrassing yourself.

    When you call someone a racist it cheapens you on here. Your arguments begin to lose weight. People stop taking you seriously. They laugh at you. What is sad though is that it also makes it difficult to call out real racism where it exists. People start to ignore real racism because they are tired of the vomitous "I don't like what you say so you must hate black muslim kenyan blah blah blah". Your words have actual harm. Those are the dots I can connect.
    Of the five neocon adjectives I used to describe Obama, why did you focus on race, comrade?

    Because the neocon playbook is that when you don't get what you want legally or through the democratic process, you do it illegally, through minions and the ilk if necessary.

    Yes! Reject or be destroyed!

    We've been hearing the same thing since Trump went down the escalator.

    What you don't understand yet people with a conservative bent do is that this onslaught against Trump would have been used against any potential GOP president. It is what the left and democratic party does. Every conservative is Hitler. Every conservative must be destroyed. The republican base has no love affair with Trump the man but they recognize that nobody else has the ability to withstand the onslaught.

    https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/monkey-cage/wp/2017/03/22/how-many-trump-voters-really-regret-their-votes/?utm_term=.8fa65ff69b58

    The rejection won't come as long as he keeps pushing forward on his agenda. The democrats have no agenda. They have become the thing they hated the most...Joe McCarthy Incorporated...they will not change a vote that way.
    Because the other 18 republican candidates for president have or had ties to Russia? Damn, the whole party is compromised.

    Oh, you see the forest AND the trees, do you? Of course you do, you’re woke AF.

    You also predicted the Russia story was going away. How’s that working out for ya?

    Not so good, it’s only gained momentum, but that’s ok. You’re more than happy to push the distraction Herr Trump has laid out for his followers, eh? You’re a good little lemming, and cognitive dissonance is a wonderful thing.

    It’s all phony, right Holden?

    Not expecting the results of the election is embarrassing. Remember when you all used to believe that? Now you have all taken a complete 180 on the Obama/Clinton Russian foreign policy. The only thing that has gained momentum are the conspiracy theories. Nothing else has changed. No new info has been revealed. If it comes I will listen but for now I'll stick with Clapper, Morrell, Rogers and Comey's analysis of the situation over the AMT. Bring some real evidence...otherwise you're all just a broken record.

    what are your thoughts on Tillerson skipping the NATO conference and heading to Russia instead?


    My thoughts are this...

    Pence just visited and made the Trump position on NATO known.

    ...... says the guy trying to blame Obama for the corruption in the current admin. Talk about a broken record.

    Obama Obama Obama

    You're embarrassing yourself.
    Blaming Obama for the corruption in the current admin? Is that what is happening? Clearly another person who can't read.

    Please...... the house is on fire & you're crying about the smoke alarms & who called the fire department.

    Deflect, distract, deny.

    You're a good little lemming.

    Bernie once wanted to know?

    The AMT has become the land of unfettered surveillance and Russia hawks! The quick turnaround is fascinatingly impressive.

    Be careful with broad generalizations.. or generalizations about broads. Both are dangerous.

    I am not sure what you mean by that last line.

    The NSA.... not cool. I agree that the NSA has been given the okay to be totally out of control, which is pretty sinister. Obama was good in many ways IMO, but how he handled the whole NSA thing during his terms was one of my biggest complaints against him.

    This must confuse the hell out of BS, who saw nothing improper or irregular about Nunes' actions yesterday. It sure got the attention of the Oversight Committee. But again, nothing improper.

    But let's not argue about my use of the word irregular, which BS objected to. Let's hear what a former Intelligence Committee counsel said about it:
    MSNBC security analyst Jeremy Bash noted that he served as counsel to the House Intelligence Committee in the past while pointing out that he “never heard of a chairman of an oversight committee going to brief the President of the United States about concerns he had about things he read in an intelligence report.

    "The job of the committee is to do oversight of the executive branch,” Bash exclaimed. “Not to bring them into their investigation or to tip them off to things they may be looking at.”

    He continued, “I’ve gotta believe that other members of the committee are horrified at what they just witnessed. This is a chairman that’s supposed to be doing impartial, bipartisan investigations of the president’s inner circle and instead he basically goes and tells the president and his team everything he knows.”
    Perhaps instead of saying irregular I should have said unprecedented. Either way BS, you're on the wrong side of this one. I usually appreciate your opposing analysis and opinions and from time to time agree with them, but this was a swing and a miss for you.

    Yeah, and considering Nunes turned around & apologized today, it's safe to say BS missed by a mile.

    To the neocon, all of Trump's irregularities are regular. And I'm not talking Metamucil.

    Follow the money, from Russia with love, all the way to impeachment.

    Neoconservatism is essentially incompatible with nationalism. When the neocons defend Trump, it's clear that it's never about principle, rather the letter next to the name. Democrats have the same issue.

    Fair. You actually have been pretty consistent on this.
