76. Yes I did.
Nice to meet you! I'm a HAM from So Cal (Harbor Area, hence the HA).

Did you read this last M Bulletin? The 2% solution to war? What a wild ride it was reading that! LOL! And the flaming rightie about blew my mind. I guess Kool aid poisoning can hit anyone!


Yes, there seems to be a fair amount of that in the Bulletin, especially the letters. Have you been to the forums on the website? Lots of libertarians over there, but great conversations on a wide variety of other subjects. I tend to avoid politics over there, as you well know our motto ain't "herding cats" fer nuthin' :silly:

I'm not convinced there would be an acquittal. I understand how the media would handle this, but with 75% disapproval, I'm betting there are increasingly more people who would support and embrace impeachment despite the media's blathering. And if you believe the numbers... some say 25% approval, some say 30%... I'm betting fewer and fewer people are believing the media.


While my analysis applies only to MonkeyFunks OP. I'm pretty convinced that there would be an aqcuittal - at this time

I really believe that people like Conyers know what they're doing, and certainly know the private views of their colleagues better than I do. I think if the hearings continue and the legal wrangling over Exec Privilege plays out that we may finally see things come to light and then move forward.

What upsets me lately, is seeing good people like Conyers, Feingold and Pelosi dragged through the mud just because they disagree about this issue. I also think that things like yesterdays demonstration make it more difficult for people like Conyers because it plays right into their hands. Honestly, can't you just see the headlines?

In politics & PR it's not just what you do but how you do it. Right now I trust the Dem leadership in the House and Senate and I will defer to their judgement.
