Democrats Make Mockery of Barr ‘Hearing’

That's a pretty narrow and self serving definition you have there. The two groups can more clearly be identified by their actions, not by who they or you say they are.

Of course...but no protesteror could ever kill someone....right? Because the minute they do they aren't a protestor...are they?

Which part are you crying over? The fact that Trump associates with criminals, or the fact that you are in love with a President who associates with criminals?

Neither, but you aren't nuanced enough to understand what happened yesterday is bad for the country.

Bitches about Trump Fan Nation hating law and order.....

then goes on to say Judge is wrong....

****ing irony runs thick with you doesnt it

Once again your comprehension issues are affecting you. I never said the Judge was wrong. But lying and seeing things that don't exist is what Trump Fan Nation does.

Oh you Trump lovers. What are you going to do when your crush loses?

Amazing how Hollywood created this myth!! Seems the left is a bunch of radicals that you have latched onto because of hatred of Trump, a President who has done nothing specifically to hurt you, your family, or the country. I truly feel sorry for people like you and how actual verifiable results don't resonate including those in this link. Want me to post Seattle's, Minneapolis, Chicago's, Austin's "peaceful" protesting pictures? Care to explain to us how yesterday's democratic circus resonates with the good people of this country who see that myth right before their eyes

Sometimes, like a blind squirrel, you get the correct answer.........sort of. You still don't understand the difference however.

Again, I get it, a guy is out protesting.....he's a protestor.......then he sees the opportunity to do something really stupid....and...poof...not a protestor anymore, now...he's a looter/rioter/thug/criminal....

Therefore...protestors aren't bad etc....it's a game of semantics....and everyone sees through it.

No, you insinuated it...but then again, you are bright enough to realize that's what you did when you literally said "judge's are always right?"

Nadler said the protests were a myth, brought that issue into the hearing, the MSM probably didn't present that to you in your talking points. This hearing was a disaster for the democrats and supporters like you. You and your ilk are the radicals that will be rejected in November, think the American people aren't paying attention to the party that is supported by rioters, looters, BLM, and those clowns from the Democratic Party yesterday? You cannot even be honest on any issue, just a partisan liberal hack

I have no problem wearing a mask, and I rarely swear unless I am doing so for emphasis, humor, or using a colloquialism. Your posts so far have shown a lack of maturity and a lack of civility, but given your disdain for masks and your fellow Americans' lives, I cannot say I am overly surprised to see you express yourself in ways that detract from your overall points. Have a nice day.

I wear a mask also, but you know it is not the most effective thing in all this correct? virii are microscopic.. a mask may not stop them at all, and most do no cover your eyes. it may , however, reduce the risk of someone sneezing or expelling SOME mucous with covid virii in them, but it is not 100% effective.. it is MUCH more effective to stay at least 6' from anyone.

Swallwell's presentation was the Rube Goldberg.
He was flipping so many pages so fast he had to be hospitalized for 3rd degree paper cuts.
And since Barr wasn't allowed to respond to anything we'll never know if Swallwell had anything worthwhile to respond to.

Barr was asked simple yes or no questions which he tried to answer ponderously to run down the clock. A verbose response is a pretty standard tactic on the part of witnesses who don’t want to answer questions.

Except that 99% of the time protesters stick to protesting while rioters/looters simply use the protest as an excuse to get some of their own. One can hear protesters screaming at looters to stop, that they are hurting the cause of the protest in most cases where the two happen in close proximity. Usually however the looters are several blocks away doing their own thing.

It's only a game of semantics when one wishes to paint protesters as looters.

After the question, count how many times Barr was interrupted....

While Barr did seem to avoid answering the direct question posed by Representative Deutch, his overall answer, the answer that was yielded in the next sequence with Representative Roby, did make sense to me to reduce Stone's sentence and remove the enhancements that seemed to be erroneously applied. Having watched bits and pieces, I think a lot of the Democrats spent more time making their cases and not enough listening to Barr's responses, so I can understand why many disagree with their conduct yesterday. That is not to say that their grievances were misplaced, but I do believe it is important to get both sides, and I am glad that many of the Republican representatives gave Barr a chance to speak to those grievances even if it meant they had less time for their own questions.
 
Xilnik said:
That is the right spin on it. The left spin is that the Obama administration had concerns about international interference in the election and started an investigation to protect the integrity of the election. As I said before, I see evidence on both sides that there was unethical behavior that occurred in the previous and current administrations. I am interested to see it sorted out, but I doubt we will really see any of the key people indicted in the end from either administration.

Like him or not, Barr is not stupid. Nor is Durham. He has decades of experience and knows that you have to have the goods on people before bringing indictments. He has already said that there was criminality and wrong doing. One thing of note is the silence of the players lately, particularly Comey and Clapper. They have all lawyered up and a lawyer always tells his guilty clients to shut the **** up.

You need Metamucil.

Now get back on topic. It's Barr. Not your crush on Trump or the election.

This....it was bad for the country as a whole, to have our elected politicians act that way.....

They may have grievances, rightfully or wrongfully.....that's not the way to act to air them, it was disgusting.

Obviously you have no problem with yesterday's debacle created the Democrats which had disastrous results? You ever going to explain why you support today's radical Democratic Party
Click to expand...

I watched pretty much the entire debacle and shook my head. It was painfully obvious that the group was more interested in demonizing him for the upcoming election and because they know indictments are on the horizon.

This will be a VERY good thing, however, because it shows that the Democrats approve of these demonstrations and look the other way at rioters maiming police and burning buildings. All Trump has to do is show snippets of these assassins alongside rioters hurling projectiles at police with the words "Is THIS what America wants?"

Lawyers tell their clients...innocent or guilty, to shut the hell up, that has nothing to do with if they are actually guilty or not.

What does saying antifa is a myth have to do with anarchy? The Republicans are no more for the rule of law that the Democrats, bit abuse and use it to their advantage when inpower. How in the hell the Trumpet's ever though that Trump is a saint with accompanied halo and wings sans the harp is beyond my capabilities to deny...

As we can see, the Democrats are in full partisan smear mode, seeking to vilify and demonize anyone who doesn't meekly surrender the country to them and their minions.
Click to expand...

It's not "the Democrats", it's the USA. Your whole country is toxically partisan. Remember not long ago when news networks donated airtime so the President could provide Covid updates and he used the stage to beat the campaign drum and smear the Democrats and if he mentioned Covid at all it was to denigrate anyone who suggested safety protocols? Remember that?
Like I said, toxic. Put a camera in front of any member of your government and they stop being a government official and become a hyper-partisan jingoistic demagogue. They don't represent the job they're supposed to be doing or the voters who elected them, they represent their party and it doesn't matter which party.
Suck it up and get used to it. It ain't going back to how it was any time soon.

That's quite a bit of spin away from your original thoughts.

Now, How many have the protesters killed? And back to the Barr discussion, how many protesters have been taken off the streets by Barr's irregulars.

And your posts continue to show loyalty to an ideology that is making a fool out of you, one that promotes rioting, looting, destruction of property, tearing down monuments, defunding police. yesterday was a disaster for the Democrats and yet you cannot admit reality. Your loyalty to the Democratic Party of today defies logic, common sense, and the facts. Such loyalty, are you being compensated for your support?
