Conway says White House sees 'no reason' to bow to Democratic witness demands

One of the great mysteries of life, which I hope will one day be revealed, is how this lady is so great and yet married such a piece of sh!t as George.

We make mistakes, we grow apart.

I'm pretty sure he doesn't spend too much time arguing politics with her at home.

[Mariner]

While Conway is correct in her conclusion, her stated reasoning is lacking at least.

The issue was, and is, Executive Privilege.

McConnell should read Schumer’s demands on the senate floor, and then laugh uncontrollably in Scumer’s face, while saying: are you f—k-ng me?!?!

[Linda Frances]

Same rules democrats gave republicans.

[newzjunkey]

Chuck Schumer opposed witnesses being called during the Clinton impeachment but claims that was different.

It’s the “Democratic Party,” regardless of what you may have read somewhere on the internet.

Repeating a lie doesn't make it true. They can call themselves the Ballerina Party and I still wouldn't honor the lie.

No, he’s right. It should be “Democrat party”, not “Democratic Party”.

Ronald Reagan always made a point of calling them the “Democrat party”, and so does Donald Trump.

And it has nothing to do with what they wish to call themselves. The issue is that the word “democratic” is an adjective. The fact that they call themselves Democrats, doesn’t make them democratic.

I believe Reagan used to ask reporters what they would think of the LA Angels referring to their stadium as Angelic Stadium.

It is pretentious.

President Trump’s explanation is more blunt. He says “I like to call it the Democrat Party because Democratic sounds too good.”

Both Presidents had the right idea - I’ll take my cue from them, not the DNC official website.

“It is the DEMOCRAT Party and there is NOTHING democratic about those b@st@rds.”

I have the same pet peeve, and so did RR and DJT

(please see my post #27 - I forgot to include you in my reply.)

It’s very easy to argue against this without it being a tit-for-tat thing. Just tell Chuckie that because the House Dems have insisted that the “evidence” presented in their hearings was overwhelming even without these witnesses, their Senate counterparts shouldn’t need any additional ones to make their case.

[Rembrandt]

YOU do the research! Sadly, I am old enough to remember when the party was the Democrat Party then, along the way, some miscreant added a few letters to mislead the people into believing the party stood for something other than what their goal is.

[Balding_Eagle]

At many of his rallies Trump has pointed out that it is correctly called the Democrat party.

[Alberta's Child]

This thread is apparently filled with morons. I thought the Democrats had all those, not FR.

The Democratic Party is an organization that has an official, LEGAL name ... and yet FR apparently has a lot of people who insist that the use of this name is “wrong.” So facts are meaningless now.

When did AOC and Joe Biden become Freepers?

[ronnie raygun]

Shut them out and close them down

[gogeo]

Violates Truth-in-Advertising laws.

[catnipman]

even better, best the trial EXCLUSIVELY on the House 300+ page impeachment report plus whatever documents the defense submits and no witnesses at all ...
