Extremism in the defense of extremism is not a vice.

Not productive either, although possibly cathartic.

Said by an extremist to justify his emotions. And so he openly advocated the massacre of 50,000 American servicemen for no purpose in a war justified only by emotions. And in violation of well understood concepts defined some 2500 years previously.

Extremists do not apologize for killing another 5000 in Iraq for no purpose. Otherwise facts that contradicted emotions would be acknowledged.

Back then, a moderate clearly defined what would be a disaster - and said why using well understood military concepts. Because statements were made by also saying why - what moderates do.

And, at no time were insults posted at, for example, UT for ignoring those well understood facts. Moderates need not post insults. Extremist do. And so they love Trump.

Extremists so emotional as to even claim shooting of student at Kent State was justified. Nobody was even investigated for those murders. Extremism justified their extremist actions.

If he was really an adult, he would not post insults like a wacko extremist. Adult use reason. He posted his emotions. That is why extremists exist and are so easily brainwashed.

He could learn to address the logic rather than endorse what Trump encourages wackos to do - insult people. But he doesn't.

The Don used public money, structures, and staff for private gain. That is embezzlement. And theft. And conspiracy. That says what he does and why it is both anti-social and criminal. And why it is a violation of Article II Section 1 of the Constitution.

So address the point. Is that criminal activity broad enough to justify impeachment? The wacko, instead, posted insults. Since that is what they are ordered to do.

Gravdigr - another extremist. He also only posts his emotions.

Griff - you tend to do what the extremists here do not. You include reasons why - as any adult would do.

Somebody tell TW that I found them for him...

Urbane Guerrilla does his very best to be alarming. I find it helps to imagine him wearing a suit of duct-tape-and-foam LARPing armor while making his overwrought proclamations.

If it is a toadstool, then those must be warts. Because everyone know toads breed warts. Somebody told me. It must be true.

Only the prejudiced believe that one, tw. You harbor prejudice, and resent a suggestion that not doing so would be enlightened thought. You resent all the decent, embrace all the nasty and immoral.

Which has left you a virgin for life.

Turning to a more general infection of the body politic, we come to our Democratic solons taking counsel of their prejudices. While abandoning shame.

A session of the bastinado may induce shame in them. Or perhaps getting pantsed on the Capitol's steps and getting Public Enema #1. (in a series of 51, in the several States and the District) A great deal of purgation seems called for with these disgraces to the Beltway.

Sterling fellow that I am, I harbor no prejudice. This allows me to give Trump a fair shake. The antiTrumpkins all refuse to, as a matter of not-principle, but in the service of their raw, naked, evil, anti-American prejudices -- which could be a pretext to ship them off to Nicaragua. With only pocket change.

Hey Shirley? Joking again? You can do better.

I can certainly do even better by voting for Trump this next go-round, can't I? More employment, less Federal impedance to the economy's working, an actual pro-American stance lacked by his two Democrat predecessors, etc.

Remember that you do not have self-respect or amour-propre, while I do. You have only your prejudices, and the sooner they induce a fatal brain lesion, the happier the Cellar. Remember also that you order the world to offend tw, and injure tw.

Happily, I have more self respect than that.

This is surreal.

Is anyone else having fun watching Sondland and President Trump throw each other under the bus?

I am. I listen to the hearings on a Baton Rouge NPR outlet as I tool around. It's a wonderful 3 Ring Circus.
