Harris and Klobuchar need to stop starting sentences with "As a former prosecutor....."

Just not effective.

"I think that all of us believe that the evidence is there. I just think it's nuance of how you answer this. But for me and my colleagues, we have to look at all the evidence. You may decide on five counts it's impeachable and one it isn't. You just have to look at everything. The point is as a former prosecutor, when I look at this, I consider these documents smoking guns. I've said that many times. And it just keeps getting worse. And we have not even gotten to the corroborating witness of those that used to work in the White House. Those people have to come forward. They know stuff," Klobuchar said.

Nor jilted lovers

Nor paranoid radio host addicts

Nor anyone chemically boosting their testosterone for muscular or sexual reasons

Getting a gun should be nearly as hard as stitching back together a shooting victim.

Perry's departure from office has been in the works for a while and is a planned succession as Perry looks to move to the private sector, a source with ties to Perry told CNN.
Hynes did not specify a timeline for Perry's departure in a statement issued as news outlets, including Politico, reported that Perry would depart later this year.
She said the reports were based "on rumors," and noted "he is still the Secretary of Energy and a proud member of President Trump's cabinet. One day the media will be right. Today is not that day"

Heh

I like this chick

We get it.

You prefer outright lies, the way Trump does it.

And a spectacular new series, so good it will be airing on multiple networks at multiple times!

A who’s who of who’s left in the GOP,

http://m.dailykos.com/stories/1890466

Good company for our local adherents and of course for the dying party’s chief rodent plague carrier, or whatever his official title is these days.

No more rape and theft!

No more republican crooks till they change their ways!

30 years in the desert for slimy GOP grifters!

Let them eat the dirt they’ve sown!

It turns out his new official title is Bloated Orange Impeachment Monkey, or BOIM for short.

But shouldn't that have been the case after W Bush both crashed the economy and got us stuck in a pointless ugly war/occupation.

Dems do a terrible job of messaging.
Bush seems to have never existed . . .

Oh, look!

Susan Collins has a new topic to pretend she has a conscience about until push comes to shove and she actually has to vote.

I think Susan Collins is likely related to Barnabas Collins and the rest of the crowd at Collinwood, up near Collinsport, ME.

Now we know trump thinks Romney should have been president so he could have stuck to gasbag bullshit, skirt chasing, money laundering, and outright fraud. Presidenting sucks and it’s hard. Mitt would have been a great daddy despite being so much younger.

Exactly.

Susan Collin's occasionally dips her toe into her pool of tsk tsking, but then runs away, as she's afraid of getting wet and pissing off Mitch.

Blue wave's coming Susan and the water's fucking cold.
