Someone who doesnt understand that Cohen has to slice through "FBI Evidence - Do No Open" tape to look through the boxes that the FBI *returned* to him.

Why is that so hard to discern. I would really think the GOP would have more than what Meadows, and Jordan have cobbled together with their band of idiots.

According to Jim Jordan, it's all a Clinton conspiracy because Cohen hired Lanny Davis.

Jim Jordan is That Guy -- the ringmaster who spins up a fantasy backdrop and then demands everyone else react to that rather than reality. He seems to be pretty good at it. There's at least one in every Congress. Newt was one of the best.

He's doing what Ted Cruz thinks he can do but really can't -- creating the frame through which the audience views the proceedings. It's an important role because it emphasizes or buries different facts depending on its agenda. Every prosecutor wants to be able to do it and it's what much manipulative political rhetoric aims to do. He's a good craftsman (albeit a dingo).

Republicans in 1974 had lived through World War II and possessed some amount of love of country. Current Republicans grew up thinking Nixon was wronged and have lived in the Fox News/right wing media bubble for decades.

Fox News was created specifically so that if another Nixon came about, he'd have a reliable mouthpiece spreading an alternate reality. This administration is essentially judgement day for their 40-year plan.

Because *that* ignorant question now becomes the new "missing 30k emails."

Fox will repeat it a thousand times. The real networks will pick it apart n the first 15 seconds and then leave it alone.

I've been able to listen to a decent portion of the testimony on XM POTUS 124, and ... I feel like Cohen is like that new Pop singer of a catchy song but you find out that before this smash hit he quietly wrote a decade worth of pop hits others made famous you also like.

It seems like Cohen is just confirming "yep, this story was true. That story was true. Bits of that rumor are true."

It just feels like a "Greatest Hits of Sh*t We Already Knew About Trump."

Except for some of the charges, he is bringing actual proof that it happened.

People knew it, now it can be proven, and impeachment hearings can start.

Exactly. The genius of Roger Ailes was the recognition that if he just had a network that lied to people the way they wanted to be lied to they would turn to it (and its advertisers) over the truth.

He realized that truth, to the right wing reptile mind, is secondary to reinforcement of prejudices.

For the short time I watched, that is so very true. Such little to go on, and very easy to be ready for.

And some of their statements are not terribly coherent. I have to give Cohen credit- he understood what was being asked- whereas I could not follow....

LOL this congressman doesnt quite understand that New York is a "one-party-consent" law for recording conversations.

Between that and their 25 year mudslinging campaign against Hillary, you have to give them credit for investing in the long con.

It just blows my mind that I know things that these guys do not. What the **** do they do all day?

Watching R after R bend over for Dump is really funny.

Generally speaking Members are not very smart. When they say or quote smart things it's because a smart staffer brought it to their attention and then carefully trained them to vomit it back up.

But that only works for the first couple sentences. Once you scratch the surface they have very little below it. Some of them know things because of their prior careers (maybe law, or perhaps they sold used cars or some such). But again, these are not smart people -- kinda by definition if they are able to resonate with the average person they cannot be very smart because that would scare them off and/or anger them.

"This hearing isn't why West Virginia sent me here"

Then how about you stop wasting our time and their's and ****ing leave?

Mrs. Miller is a real winner. I have a meeting in 8 minutes so I have to bow out. I'll be watching the news later and this thread for updates.

Mrs. Miller is from West Virginia. No ****. Where the **** else would she be from?

One last thing. It's interesting how EVERY Republican today is very upset about someone making money. Really? When did this happen?
