AFAIK it was never removed (even though I reported it) so you should be able to find it.

We all have "moments". Some really good, some not so. Hope this is an aberration.

I think he'd probably say he went too far in that one but I get what he was getting at.

It wasn't meant as a personal attack on Schiff. Even though it could be reacted to that way. Schiff was just representing Democrats as a whole. He couldn't paint all of them.

And I shared his frustration. Their was more concern and passion displayed on DU than it seemed from the elected reps. They still seem way too calm about things. If even one of the hundreds of traitorous actions this administration has done had happened on a Democrats watch, they'd be spitting at the mouth, red in the face, screaming on Fox News daily

Considering that Schiff has always been one of the most public anti-Trump voices (and faces). as well as having to contend with Devin Nunes' bullshit when Nunes was their committee's chair, Carrey's attack on Schiff last year has made me permanently despise and distrust him.

when I see Jim Carrey's name.

He depicted Rep Adam Schiff as "castrated".. even though it couldn't have been further from the truth.

to have unrealistic expectations of what a minority party can accomplish, and he won't be the last. I agree that an apology would be desirable.
