In reply to Yeah, I do discuss cases

Occupy wasn't a Democratic Party operation. Factions of OWS directly targeted Obama

Black Lives Matter is not a Democratic Party operation either. They protested against Obama

The worse thing Democratic legislators can do is stop requesting an independent investigation and trying to slow down the Supreme Court nominee.

In reply to Nixon never indicted nor

On the other hand, I would like to see this motherfucker go to prison, and all of his conspirational culprits as well. Why not? They have done far more harm to our country than Nixon.

In reply to That's a semantic quibble. If

Nixon was never indicted nor tried nor convicted, and Ford's pardon made sure that he wasn't. I'd sure love to see this second national nightmare end similarly. (Since those days,the way things move and develop in general have sped up considerably, to say the least, so I left out the "long" adjective from "national nightmare." )

That's a semantic quibble. If

In reply to It doesn´t make them innocent

That's a semantic quibble. If by "innocent" you mean "not convicted," then I grant you that Trump and Manafort are "innocent" or more precisely, they are innocent under the law. But in ordinary parlance, innocent doesn't mean "not convicted;" it means "did not commit a crime." For instance, when a convict declares, "I'm innocent," he is not claiming that he wasn't convicted but that his conviction was unjust because he committed no crime.

If it pleases you, I will restate without the semantically-loaded "innocent" and "guilty" language. I believe that Trump and Manafort probably struck a deal with Russian authorities to ease off on Ukraine in return for the Russians leaking hacked emails. If so, it is my hope that they will indicted and convicted.

Well it wasn't for Hillary

Well it wasn't for Hillary and it never ever was for HIllary.

So since I don't live in coulda-shoulda-woulda fantasyland expecting proper justice on earth, hoist them from their own petard and make them walk that same plank, so they can feed on the plankton and sleep with the fishes.

In reply to It doesn´t make them innocent

I disagree with you on what makes a person guilty or innocent. For purposes of punishment for a crime, yes it is up to a court to decide. But we in the hoi palloi can use our brains to come to a conclusion. We can even change our minds when we get more information.

But actual guilt or innocence is a fact regardless of whether we figure it out or not.

In reply to No one has been found guilty

It doesn´t make them innocent. Our laws do.

Until found guilty. That´s as true for Trump and his merry men as it was -or should have been-for Hillary.
