I was a Staff Officer at a field command post during a military training exercise several years ago.
A Three Star General came in to evaluate my performance.
I gave him a quick briefing on how things were going.
He stopped me in mid-sentence and asked me to define a word I had spoken.
I was confused. I assumed he understood the word I used (I can’t remember the exact word now).
I tried to explain. He cut me off.
“Words have meanings”, he explained. ‘They have specific meanings. If we all don’t understand and agree to the meaning of a word, then there is misunderstanding, and misunderstandings cause problems that can ruin everything.”
I learned a hard lesson that day. I am forever grateful to that General who taught me that lesson.
More people need that lesson.
Impeachment.
Not a hard word.
Our common understanding in our nation is that, as it applies to our President, it is a method to officially remove the President from office.
It does not mean a method to prevent a former President from serving again. It does not mean a method to publicly embarrass a former President. It does not mean a way for Nancy Pelosi to exact childish revenge.
Words have a meaning.
They have an exact meaning.
If we all don’t understand and use them the same way, there can be misunderstandings and misunderstandings can cause big problems.
Big problems.
Problems way out of proportion to the childish feelings of the Speaker of The House.
Problems that can ruin everything.
Some words are so clear that we don't have to worry. Words like "impeachment", "male", "female", and "marriage" have meanings that go back hundreds or thousands of years. What hope do the thugs who hate us have of redefining such basic terms?
Words mean what the marxist say they mean now. “Justice” “diversity” “inclusion” “unity” All meaningless psychobabble now.
Then we are having problems.
LOL,
Good point.
Man is not a man
Woman is not a woman
Boy is not a boy
Girl is not a girl
And the worst....
An unborn baby is not a baby
If Democrats believe they actually defeated Trump then why are they still trying to defeat him?
