Wray testifies in front of a bunch of Qlowns

Holy crap. A partisan taking a partisan position on a partisan congress questioning a partisan official. My head is spinning…

 

I’m more concerned about the Creepy Personal Snoop Machine. On the other hand, that’s basically what the FBI was founded to do.

 

They are demented. You can’t connect on a reasonable basis with them

 

A hyperpartisen Democrat thinks the Democrats did a better job? You know what's equally surprising? Where I live the sun is going to set in about 1/2 an hour.

 

I'll just paraphrase from the Orlando cop shooting the unarmed man thread, and say something like ... The Conservatives support for criminals and the constant excuse making from them is sickening ... It's clear that conservatives want to pamper criminals and side with them every time ... they must all be criminals themselves to show this kind of hate for law enforcement and support for their fellow gang members.

 

Using the term clown and Congress in the same sentence seems redundant.

 

Ultimately these types of proceedings are pointless, when you really ponder what they are. They are a form of political theater, and the actors each are trying to get a snippet that gets circulated on social media or other media among their particular constituents. What happens before or after, or in response to their performance is totally irrelevant to them.

 

America today is like watching the weirdest, most implausible movie you can think of. Like imagine a movie starring Jim Jordan and Marjorie Taylor Greene as themselves. With Donald Trump as God and with his motley band of apostles such as the Pillow Guy, Teri Lake, and Rudy Giuliani (running hair dye and all). No one could make it up, so there would be no script, all the cast would have to do, as the Beatles song says, is act naturally. A good title would be "My Country, This Is Thee?"

 

Still better than 95% of the crap put out by Hollywood

 

Rex was right

 

They provide sound bites for those who live in a reality where Republicans appointed to DOJ positions weaponize against Republicans.

 

They're nothing more than a different form of campaign speech, these days.

 

Did you watch the hearing, and are you defending the conduct of some of those clowns based upon that? Or are you just knee-jerking?

 

This congressional hearing parallels what we see on this forum. The politicians spout conspiracy theories and nonsense with no regard for the truth or accountability.

How many times has the our Quidiot posters brought some of these theories only to get immediately shot down with actual facts based in reality? They never take it down, admit it's wrong nor apologize. These people are broken and a danger to our society.

 

I would argue the 9/11 investigation was entirely different, and was professionally and solemnly conducted. The Dems have their extremists, but they weren't on that Commission. What was on display yesterday by a few of the GOP extremists was disgusting - and, frankly, embarrassing.

 

why would anyone waste their time watching that? I get better satisfaction (and more useable info) watching the grass grow. I’ve seen the highlights though. My original post stands: this board is comprised of partisans, present company included. I am just a master of the obvious when I point it out. It was definitely a clown show, the only difference being …..who was the clown(s).

 

I agree about partisanship in the sense of asserting a reasonable point of view. Opposing reasonable points of view are essential for a healthy democracy. Hinting that the 9/11 investigation was a clown show, and that the conduct of a handful of GOP members on yesterday's panel was acceptable is not reasonable and bespeaks hyperpartisanship.

As for why one watches such things, I can only say to become educated so as to avoid hyperpartisanship.
