Discussion: Pro-Russia GOP Rep Pushes Months-Old Report That DNC Hack Was 'Inside Job'

blows me away that this tool represents an area that, when I was growing up there, was entirely repube and was so anti-USSR that this guy would have been strung up without hesitation back then for speaking as he does now, guess Ronnie Raygun’s evil empire evolved into a republican stalwart supporter, or probably more logically, the repubes devolved into russian stooges

Rohrabacher has long been a strident Russia defender — and the FBI reportedly warned him back in 2012 that Russian spies were trying to recruit him as an asset. The congressman brags that he once lost a drunken arm-wrestling match with now-Russian President Vladimir Putin back in the 1990s, and has defended many Russian actions viewed as dangerous by other politicians, including its invasion of Ukraine and meddling in Syria.

Is there any doubt that the Russians’ Kompromat on Rohrabacher was developed in the hours immediately following this drunken arm-wrestling match?

Rohrabacher, do you really want to draw Mueller’s attention right now?

Everybody KNOWS Rohrbacher is a Russian agent at this point. Why would anyone pay attention to whatever Russian propaganda he’s pushing?

I’ve said before that I know people who worked with him before he went into politics. They say he is one dumb bunny. He’s a friggin’ liar and a dumb friggin’ liar to think this will buy him some favor with the Big Dogs.

He posed with some Afghans holding an AK 47 to imply he was doing some guerilla action as proxy for his draft dodging. The LA Times, much to its discredit, printed the press release with photos. The pix looked like those one takes on the boardwalk photo concession while dressed in some costume. “Yes, guys, I can fart with the Big Dogs. Just look at me!”

He is one friggin’ buffoon.

“the so-called hacking of the Democratic National Committee before last year’s elections could not have been done by Russians, but was instead an inside job made to look like Moscow’s handiwork.”

Ah…brilliant use of Occam’s Bowling Ball.

I don’t think Russia needed compromat for this one. He’s been a conspiracy crank his whole life, and certainly his whole political career. I wouldn’t be surprised if the didn’t get some grease the palms action, but I think he would be acting just the same with or without passage of $.

Dana’s gotta be so proud. He was a traitor long before it became Presidential.

For years Orange County was one of the most right wing places in the country. Garden Grove was represented by B-1 Bob Dornan. An area with a sizable Vietnamese and Cambodian population. Folks who would have little use for Rohrabacher.

The dogs or the people?

Laguna Beach is part of Rohrbacher’s district. Issa’s begins in Dana Point and south of that.

I will never understand how a Kremlin apologist like this man can be an elected Representative in Congress. Anyone who would discount our intelligence services in the face of confirmed Russian meddling in our Democracy, and would rather favor appeasing Russia does not deserve to serve in Congress.

So many facts and reasons to believe that dumbass, too, is in trouble himself. Him saying that crap confirms that he is, well, too dumb to see he is in trouble.

His removal by voters or by legal processes. Whichever comes first, I’d be fine. The sooner the better.

If the Dems can’t pick up this seat in 2018, they should just pack it in.

This genius is also on the house science committee. A couple of weeks ago he asked some NASA guys about ancient civilizations on Mars.
