(3,131 posts)Cspan caller. He says he was a communist in college but now hes smarter. Obama was just following saul lewinsky (sic) and got colleges to brainwash students
Asked to explain the connection to the hearings and he started off on a new topic and ran out of time.
Dont get cspan3 here so switching to msnbc. Hearing republican callers was disturbing but probably more informative than the pundits. Its important to know what people are thinking.

(81,265 posts)What was it? Four attempts by as many CONS trying to obfuscate, complicate, distract, and otherwise blowjob the proceedings - before the opening statements from the witnesses can even begin?
Still pulling their clown-show stunts, I see.
The term that keeps coming up in my mind as they try this is "BLOWJOB!" From those with their "presidential kneepads" from donald trump.
