Yea let me know when those investigations come up with anything. Just cause you go look for a werewolf doesnt mean youre going to find one. But it makes for a good show, everyone gets real excited.

And Van Jones is like 30% of CNN, if you dont care what he says, you dont care what CNN says. And they say the same stuff as virtually the rest of the mainstream media. So by association you'd be listening to nothing.

You have to care what Van Jones says. You have to rehabilitate his words. What did he mean when he said "This russia story is a big nothingburger"? No hint of sarcasm or facetiousness or anything in his voice. He said it straight

and its whispered that soon if we book obamas room
then putin will lead us to treason
and a new day will dawn
for those who bing bong
and the KGB monitoring station will echo with laughter
if theres a bustle in your hotel room
dont be alarmed now
its just a spring clean for the piss queens
yes there are two you get pissed on by
but in the long run
the kompromat will be your undoing
and it makes me wonder

quote:

A failure to address a conviction among the base of the Republican Party, seven years in the making, is infinitely more damaging than the ramifications of a three-week snapshot that starts well underwater because of partisan polarization. I also believe there is a cascading effect to not getting this done that could bleed into other agenda items, which would create a catastrophic narrative in the midterms if that occurred.

quote:

If they were making a political decision, the decision is pretty simple: You cannot win an election if you do not have a base of support. The cold reality is that the phrase “President Trump’s efforts to repeal Obamacare” probably tests in the mid-90s among the Republican base right now. Even if that sentiment changes dramatically over time, the seared memory of a disappointment this significant to the Republican base has a somewhat serious chance of forever damaging Republican political careers. Compounding this problem is the very real notion that without action, the insurance markets may collapse. If that happens and a bipartisan insurance bailout materializes, conservative base voters will never, ever forget it.

It will pass. The law doesn't matter. The GOP wants this tax cut and they pull all the levers.

Of course it does, I'm not going to discriminate against my yellow brothers, unlike Tautilogicus, who won't ever be named for racism because I have no forums clout.
