LOVE that quote .. LOL

[entropy12]

You are on FRiend, it will be less than 56 to acquit.
I will settle for 3 cream filled donuts.

[NewHampshireDuo]

Good for her. I got a fundraising email from her a bit over a week ago. Said I’d donate when she votes to acquit. So be it.

[gibsonguy]

Any word on Jones? If he votes to convict he must know he’s as dead as Vince Foster. So if he does vote to convict his internals must show he is done anyway.

[Gasshog]

Ah, but it’s pleasing to dream...then again dreams may become reality.

Duh Rats havent been having a good year.

[Fresh Wind]

She misquoted the Constitution.

It says "...high crimes AND misdemeanors." (not "or misdemeanors").

The wording is very important. Many people today consider a misdemeanor to be an inconsequential offense. Since the word "and" is in there, misdemeanors cannot be substitutes for "high crimes".

She’s betrayed us enough times that I have no sympathy for her.

[Presbyterian Reporter]

That pretty much leaves Mitt Romney as the lone NEVER-TRUMPER.

Thanks, Sue - for explaining it all so’s we cun unnerstan- we ain’t scientists and stuff!!!

PS - you just had to throw the “yes, I hate him personally too, just like you, unfortunately hate is not impeachable. . . “

(yet)

[Mercat]

If you haven’t watched her speech on the floor you should.

[sauropod]

No.

1) I didn’t badmouth her.

2) I will not apologize!!

[The Pack Knight]

By bet is he whines about the lack of witnesses and votes “present,” just to be a snowflake.

[enumerated]

“Democrats have done the impossible: they have united the Republican Party behind President Trump.”

That is profound.

[Gay State Conservative]

She's in a deep blue state...it could be argued that she's showing some degree of courage in voting the right way.OTOH,there's absolutely no excuse for Pierre Delecto.*He* is the Drama Queen.

[atc23]

But then, if they any integrity or scruples, every Rat senator who was or is running for the presidency would have recused themselves.

republicans didn’t even mention it. How very odd.

Hey! republican senators! there’s still time to demand a secret vote. - you can vote guilty and no one will know. Watch them close, that’s their only option left.

[trublu]

Any idea what Manchin will do?

[hal ogen]

romney, the carpet-bagging LIB nitwit and globalist loser is despised by many in UT...even some Mormons. If it weren’t for two factors, the loser would never have been elected here: hard-core “I only vote Mormon” Mormons and LIBs who infect universities (students and staff).

[DoughtyOne]

Anyone thing there will be one demoⁿcRat crossover?

There may be, but I'm not holding ma breath.

[cnsmom]

As she said, if he were so damaging to the country why did they hold it for 30+ days.

[SunkenCiv]

Maybe the leftists' threats against her had something to do with this.
