And the Republican response ...

[PsychoBabble]

In the continuing land of, “You Can’t Make this S$!t Up” >> Actual Republican responses to the Flynn debacle:

"Well, it's Valentine's Day …”
"In this case, the coverup was worse than the crime …”
"These things happen …”
"This is a coverup without a crime …”
"I think that situation has taken care of itself …”

OR — Just move along folks, nothing to see here.

OR — To appropriate a story title from Harlan Ellison that feels like a match here:

2. That's why I don't think anything more then a hand slap will happen

The repugs don't care. If it were a democratic congress then we'd have a chance. Heck even sessions says he's not going to step away.

3. Pay no attention to the poster above me, namely yeoman6987.

Justice will prevail. The people will rise up and force the republicans to deal with Trump. If they don't they will face an even more severe beating in 2018 than they will get anyway. And anything that Sessions or anyone else does can and will be reversed. The person above has been going around DU telling us it's hopeless for months now, pay no attention.

4. Obviously they'd be as quick to dismiss an equivalent Clinton scandal.
