"Strange this information didn’t come out before the elections."

If it had, he would have won a much larger segment of the democrat base.

My barb was not directed at you. It was at the website.

My spidey senses started tingling when I saw the name of the site and then noticed the venomous sarcasm directed at McConnell because of his "prohibitionist" views on pot or whatever the hell they said.

Not that I'm a prude when it comes to sarcasm. Heaven knows I can spew it as well as anyone. Well, at least I'd like to think I can.

And I'm not against free thinking either. Just something about this whole story stirs up the demons of suspicion that take up residence in me.

I probably should look into having them exorcised. But they can be such good company.

This is a great opportunity to highlight the career of the Clintons and their funding. Mena cocaine money from Lassiter, drug dealer Jorge Cabrera, and child sex slave king Ng Lap Seng.

No, the ship belong not to Mitch McConnell’s family but rather to his wife’s family.

This happened years ago and can happen to anybody.

I knew a commercial airline captain who is one of the nicest standup people you’ll ever meet. The Feds found cocaine on a flight he captained so he got the citation for it.

Mitch is repugnant, but there is legitimate criticism we can use, rather than this nonsense.

Politics is a rough business. I have no problems using this against Mitch to throw him out of his position. Republicans throw their own out for non-issues. Time to be consistent Mitch.

Actually, I don't. Please enlighten.

Ah. So it WAS an attempt at an October surprise. Again, not a big fan of McConnell, but I'm glad it failed.

I'd like to know who planted the "cargo".

The author doesn't seem to care much about that. The insuation that McConnelly personally oversaw the operation is apparently all the author wanted to implant into the low-information voters' brains.

Elaine is Tawainese, not Chinese, and Tawain and China aren’t friends.

She was a Heritage Foundation “Distinguished Fellow” and a Southern Baptist.

What evidence do you have she’s a Chinese sympathizer?

Get real, folks! A guy is not responsible for what his in-laws do. In fact, if you owned a fleet of chips and one got used by illegal drug smugglers, what does it mean? Just that someone in the dug-smuggling racket used the opportunity. I am sure that they did not politely ask the captain’s permission.

“As much as I loathe McConnell - there is no way he had anything to do with this or had any idea. Smuggling isn’t often done by the owners of the ship!!! They’re already wealthy. It’s the crew”

SOUND REASONABLE TO ME

Crud, that's “Taiwan” and “Taiwanese.”

Sheesh, I need a nap.

Her own words and friendship with Jiang Zemin and other Chinese Communists.

BTW, she’s not Taiwanese. She is Chinese. Her family went to Taiwan in 1949, then shortly after to the US.
