Deranged Rhino Posted October 31, 2019 Posted October 31, 2019 Tibs, your thread title is wrong... As is this whole process. I would think people would be less eager to trust proven liars and manipulators than we're seeing, but dummies gonna dumb. "The only bi-partisan vote on that floor, was against (impeachment)." McCarthy just now. 1 1 2

McCarthy just now. Expand Meh, it was a procedure vote. These guys should shut it at this time. This wasn't a vote to open an inquiry, that option doesn't exist. The inquiry is happening. This wasn't a vote to issue articles of impeachment. They should save these statement for later. It also doesn't look so great that Congress, the two major political parties, and the country are so divided down strict party lines and today's proceedings just highlighted that. And calling it "bipartisan" when TWO Democrats opposed is nonsense. 2

Expand Fact: Pelosi's inquiry is the first "presidential impeachment inquiry" to be authorized by anybody. That, alone, demonstrates how farcical this is. They're putting on show votes to authorize something that doesn't need to be authorized. 2

3rdnlng Posted October 31, 2019 Posted October 31, 2019 All you need to know about this farce is that Adam Schiff has the right to prevent witnesses from testifying if they are subpoenaed by a Republican. One would think that the Republicans must be so far removed from reality that they might call John Dean to the stand. -) 1

dubs Posted October 31, 2019 Posted October 31, 2019 Does Tibs need to change the title of this thread to either: partisan support of impeachment or non-partisan opposition to impeachment i mean, the only bi-partisan support in today’s vote was the 2 democrats who crossed party lines and voted against the formal inquiry? 3

White House is trying to cloud the issue. Expand I generally follow your logic but on this one I see no dishonesty. The Dems =all dems, including the aforementioned Enrica Pelosi and Schumer. Move through the house, to the Senate, dems want to render a verdict. It reads like a statement from a press secretary for a political party.

Expand Well, you see, conducting an inquiry into a Democrat who is running for office is interfering in an election. So sayeth those Democrats who are conducing an "inquiry" into the President running for office in order to interfere with the same election.

The House verdict is called impeachment. The press secretary's letter was fine.
