Poor Doug Collins, he’s entirely unoriginal in his shamelessness.
Teach your voters to hate and you can say something like this and not be laughed off the air. They spent 20 years sharpening the hatred of every dumb fuck in the country.
The only way out of this is for a team of accountants to analyze the finances of every one of them. They are as greedy as they are stupid.
Yet ANOTHER rabid POS in the House…there is a reason that the Republican Governor of GA wouldn’t appoint him Senator…
Mr. Collins… you’re defending a group , trump and associates, who give the word “incompetent” new depth and meaning. According to the law and also tradition the “gang of eight”, that’s the leaders of the House and Senate, are to be informed prior to, or very shortly after a move like the killing of Soleimani. Generally that grace period is 48 hours. And you do not do it by tweetering. Which is how trump did it just barely within the lawful time frame. And then donnie crowed about how he “likes to follow the law”.
But these are details
Real incompetency was trump threatening cultural sites in Iran. This fight was between governments, not the people in Iran… but it is now. And Persians are well known to carry grudges and serve up revenge… cold. A competent leader would not insult an entire people. People who had no cause to hate the people of America. They have a cause now, Mr. Collins. And it was not democrats who got us in this mess. Trump walked away from the nuke deal with no cause other than it was made under Obama. trump picked this fight Mr Collins, not the democrats.
Standard answer from someone who hasn’t an original thought in his body.
ETA: Had an interesting exchange in the hotel elevator this morning when heading to work. Had two Marines on the lift with me, one female, one male. Thanked them both for their service. The woman acknowledged and asked if I’d seen Trump’s speech yesterday. No, I answered, I was working. She said, she’d seen it on YT and it was a great speech; the one thing about Trump is that he tells the truth. Then she dropped her voice, and said, well, sometimes.
I don’t think we have to ask where her allegiance is, but it is telling that she’s not completely taken in.
Hard to take these Rethugs seriously when the only venues they appear on is faux news. Preaching to the choir.
Keep digging, Dug…
It’s a new year – I am trying to practice restraint.
Q: What is the difference between Doug Collins and a bucket of shit?
A: The bucket.
This episode of ‘‘Democrats are Evil’’ is sponsored by the Trump 2020 campaign.
The only way out of the is for the nation to cleave and become two. The polarity between Left and Right, Progressive and Conservative, Secular and Zealot, Militarist and Pacifist, Academic and Anti-intellectual is entrenched, cast in stone, immutable. We’re two peoples. All our efforts at compromise and living together will ultimately be in vain.
If Doug Collins thinks assassinating Soulemani is the right way to support Gold Star families, maybe it’s because it has the potential to create so many more of them?
Seriously am I taking crazy pills? This feels just like 2001, 2002, 2003 all over again. I thought the Republicans had at least moved on to a different flavor of crazy.
Let’s start with Trump’s friends like Putin and on and on of the world’s finest.
It’s congressman like stupid Doug Collins which helps explain this story in WaPo today:
House GOP leaders in recent weeks have advocated for Trump’s most aggressive defenders — Republican Reps. Jim Jordan (Ohio), John Ratcliffe (Tex.) and Douglas A. Collins (Ga.) — to cross the Rotunda and help White House counsel Pat A. Cipollone rebut the two charges that the president abused his power and obstructed Congress.
Trump, partial to bare-knuckles tactics and top-rated TV performances, loves the idea, according to four administration and congressional officials familiar with his thinking who spoke on the condition of anonymity to talk frankly.
Cognitive dissonance in action. But perhaps the crack in the wall will widen – we can only hope.
RepubliCONS are projecting again as usual…Trump is the one who is in love with terrorists…he even had business ties with them in Azerbaijan - Trump Tower Baku.
Collins is vehemently defending an aspiring war criminal, notwithstanding Individual1, -1, tax fraud, draft dodger, emoluments clause violator, sexual predator…on and on…
Collins is enabling a criminal!
And why, pray tell, does anyone listen to what this goober has to say? This quotation is a verbal Molotov cocktail aimed at getting publicity.
- I don’t give a rip what Doug Collins thinks or says.
- It was Donald Trump who demeaned Gold Star families -talk to Khzr Khan.
Republicans provide controversy, wars and tax cuts to corporate ownership. The Media will always carry water for their cash cows.
I must say; that was very impressive! Doug Collins managed to say all of that with Donald Trump’s balls in his mouth, and Lou Dobbs was able to hear it with his head up Donald Trump’s ass! Well done, boys!
