Lindsey Graham Tells Us in Advance That He Will Be Lying Under Oath

Cicotte said:
Well, Republicans just say so but don’t bother to present exculpatory evidence.
Most defendants & their attorneys do routinely plead “NOT GUILTY,” but it wouldn’t be acceptable for members of a jury to just accept the defense: “the prosecutors hate me” as sufficient evidence for acquittal.... This is a weird defense... the Black Lives Matter crowd should adopt this GOP defense strategy

Exculpatory evidence has already been presented, in the form of the call transcript and comments by Zelesky.

Sure, you can rail about the Republicans not being impartial, but what about the Democrats? They certainly aren’t impartial either. They’re trouncing at the bit to vote guilty for removal. Their minds already made up before the trial begins. So too, the Republicans. Neither side can be impartial. Not when approximately 90% of democrats are in favor of impeachment and removal vs. 90% of Republicans against.

This is nothing new, during Bill Clinton’s trial each senator had already made up their mind also before the trial began. No impartiality there either. There may be two, three, four senators that will weigh the evidence given, then decide which way to vote. But for the rest, minds are closed to whatever evidence is given, their vote pre-determined ahead of time. For the rest, presenting evidence and witnesses is irrelevant, Republican and Democratic.

In our polarized and ultra-high partisan political world, we live in, it’s no surprise one side can’t see their side isn’t impartial at all, but expects the other side to be.

So the Ukrainian President was lying when he said he never felt pressure from President Trump to investigate Biden or announce an investigation into Biden?

Yes of course he was, he wanted to continue getting aid.

Why did he set a time on CNN to announce the investigation, then canceled when trump got caught???

Which article of impeachment was "extortion" again? I never saw the democrats present any evidence of it during their inquiries.

Speaking of the inquiries, what happened to the bribery charge the democrats kept saying Trump was guilty of? Which article of impeachment number is that one?

How about the "obstruction of justice" they swore Trump engaged in and said was absolutely proven based on the Mueller report? Surely that's one of the articles of impeachment... What article number was that one again?

"Russia, if you're listening..."

Good enough for me. And according to the Constitution, absolutely justifiable on that alone.
I DARE you or ANYONE, if you could go back in time to the early days of this republic, and utter something like that in the debates, and watch what would have likely happened.

PS: Mitch McConnell, January 2009, swore a vow to make sure to do everything in his power to make Obama fail.
Spoken like a true dyed in the wool Kentucky "nigger-hater" if ever there was one.

No wonder you love Mitch so much...it's like he's your BFF.

I think, for Mr. Trump, Republicans are using the kind of legal defense Black folks wish they could use in court: “Cops target us because they hate Black people.” And fellow black Judges & Jurors would automatically find all Black defendants NOT GUILTY’

Except McConnell sounds like a bigoted rural country bumpkin judge, the kind in a one-traffic light Kentucky town, who owns the towing company, and is the sheriff, and the local judge all at the same time.

McConnell has breathed enough life into the screaming stereotype of the ignorant crooked redneck hillbilly to last through to the age where human beings are populating new planets.

Trump isn't being charged with extortion, bribery, or QPQ. No charge, no crime.

Was it the same time that trump swore his memo was what was actually said???

Moscow Mitch was on Fox with Hannity just two days ago. He was pushing his new book. It may not be the video you meant but it's pretty clear that Moscow Mitch has no intention of conducting a trial in the Senate according to protocol and in search of truth or justice.

"Everything I do during this, I'm coordinating with White House counsel. There will be no difference between the president's position and our position as to how to handle this to the extent that we can. We'll be working through this process hopefully in a fairly short period of time in total coordination with the White House counsel's office and the people who are representing the president in the well of the Senate."

And there were many more Dem Reps who've stated the same. The Dems have looked so ridiculous over the last 3 years, they are like unpaid public relations spokesmen for Trump, making him look good by comparison.

We’ve tolerated selective enforcement of our laws since the beginning. That’s not changing ever.

So you have one Republican senator who said that he would make sure Obama's agenda failed. He lied at that, didn't he? Obama got the bailout billions safely into the hands of the banking sharks who wrecked the economy, his crowning achievement.

On the other hand, we have a minimum of a half dozen Democrats in Congress who stated publicly that they would impeach the President. Now they're making good on their promise. Come back when you've got something meatier than accusing me of being a 'nigger hater' (I do take note of your love for using pejoratives like nigger and darkie though).

It may not be what they want to do, but it is what they should do. I march to my own drum. I don't need any personality or politician to tell me what to think. That is why I am conservative. If I needed other people to tell me what to think or how to live I'd be progressive.

Maybe because the interview was no longer necessary. Let me ask you this skippy, if Biden did extort the former Ukrainian President, how should Trump and Barr go about asking Ukraine for help in an investigation? Oh, and what about the OMB review that eventually justified the aid being sent? Do you think all aid should be allocated regardless of its effectiveness?
