Members GMac Posted June 8, 2017 Members Share Posted June 8, 2017 I actually have new found respect for the man after this hearing. He was professional, factual and fair. I'm waiting for the outcry from the right on how "partisan" he was as a way to try to discredit him. But he was far from it. I was impressed. Y'all are right about the Trumpanatics. I keep hoping that maybe one of them will engage in a genuine discussion about this corrupt administration and justify their support for them man. Apparently they are unable to come up with any rational reason why they still support this criminal. Please register in order to view this content But ya know what? That may be true, too! He's a fuckin imbecile. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted June 8, 2017 Members Share Posted June 8, 2017 (edited) He doesn't look well at all. CNN just had a clip of him being interviewed by a gaggle of reporters and he looks ill and a bit disoriented. I hope nothing happens to him. He's not perfect, but at least he wants an investigation. We need Republicans who are behind this effort. I just looked up his age. I had no idea he's already 80 years old. Ugh.

Members Ponds Posted June 8, 2017 Members Share Posted June 8, 2017 His office has now put out a statement of what he "meant" but it was awful watching him. It was not the "normal" John McCain. I hope he hasn't had a stroke. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted June 8, 2017 Members Share Posted June 8, 2017 If the exit polls are accurate (and they often are not of course) there will be a long night ahead for the Tories as it looks like they will be getting a hung Parliament. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted June 8, 2017 Members Share Posted June 8, 2017 Add Dodd-Frank to the list of rules/laws that the GOP is trying to gut on the sly. Trump's lawyer is every bit of a charlatan as the Charlatan-in-Chief, right down to the spelling errors. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted June 9, 2017 Members Share Posted June 9, 2017 (edited) Trump's favorite party in the United Kingdom, UKIP (UK Independence Party) looks as if they are about to be shut out of Parliament. Jeremy Corbyn of the Labour party is performing better than many British projections/prognostications (although many Brits that I know always believed that he had a very good chance), while Theresa May is faring worse. Earlier in the evening many analysts expected the Conservatives to be the largest party yet stipulated that the Conservatives would likely not have enough for a majority. Terms like "Hung Parliament" have been all the talk throughout the evening. It will likely be a few more hours yet before the full picture comes into focus.

Members Khan Posted June 9, 2017 Members Share Posted June 9, 2017 (edited) So, the UKIP is in trouble, Jeremy Corbyn appears to be in the lead and Theresa May is likely gonna lose. Is this bad? (I apologize for my ignorance. I must admit I don't understand the UK political scene all that well.) Edited June 9, 2017 by Khan 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted June 9, 2017 Members Share Posted June 9, 2017 (edited) Depends on who you talk to. Xenophobes will be sad that UKIP is hemorraghing but people who voted to Remain in the EU may be elated. A lot of younger people participated and that seems to have helped Labour. I can't say that May will lose, if her party ends up the largest party in Parliament, she may keep her seat but Labour's gains likely mean that she will be severely weakend. Also, I don't know what people know of the Liberal Democrats, a small bloc but Nick Clegg, who was the head of the LDs lost his seat today. I had almost totally forgotten about him but he and the LDs were supposed to be part of the coalition government with the Conservatives, who were then headed by David Cameron. Well, since Cameron lost his job, come to think of it, it follows logic that Clegg would lose his since their coalition yielded quite a few debacles. I'm sure Clegg's favorite Liberal Democrats didn't appreciate that whole austerity period. Theresa May was elected for Parliament seat for Maidenhead, retaining the hold for the Conservative party.

Members DramatistDreamer Posted June 9, 2017 Members Share Posted June 9, 2017 I did see Elmo and Lord Buckethead patiently waiting for their vote totals on the livestream. There was also a party called the Animal Welfare party (as I understand they may have been endorsed by Piers Morgan...eww!). Certainly a motley crew! Early headlines in Britain. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
