Whispers about Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnells (R-KY) military service during the Vietnam War have been floating around Washington for years and were reported in print at least as far back as two campaigns ago. From the Kentucky Kernel of November 1, 1996, Senators Discharged Questioned:

Is his wife a clintoon carpet muncher too?
The ‘m’s are different, as are the 77s-
No OBL body, no witnesses, no nothing. Choppers flying hours thru Pakistani airspace undetected. Members of Seal Team 6 killed off later in a mysterious chopper shoot-down. Obama receives worship and adulation.
Bush didn’t need OBL dead at Tora Bora because the congress would have declared the war to be over and required evacuation of Afghanistan. Bush contributed to that by making OBL the One Enemy.
Really?
Bush was too busy getting ready to fight his daddys battles for him in Baghdad
In addition to the homo rumors about him, turdle is also hiding some serious bank that he pilfered through political corruption.
Hey, in the Gloria interview, that woman started by calling him Ray. Gloria had to correct her. heh That signature looks like Ray.
A new member of the 100th Army Reserve Unit in Basic Training at Ft. Knox was arrested in the barracks for sodomy. The guy is getting out of the military and the excuse will be due to an illness, an eye disorder. The Major then told a joke about it saying, I guess the guy couldnt see the difference between guys and girls. Lynch asked him how this guy could accomplish this and get a release from the army. The Major told him that the soldier had served as an intern to Senator John Sherman Cooper and Senator Cooper called the Commanding General of Ft. Knox to arrange the discharge.
At the time the Major told Lynch the name of the soldier but the name didnt stick to his brain. Lynch said frankly it was not important at the time because the name McConnell meant nothing to him. It was not until the issue was raised in McConnells senate race of 1990 that he remembered the incident. Lynch provided the information to reporters with the Courier Journal and Herald Leader but they did nothing with it because they didnt have any real evidence.
Why isn't this on page 1 of all newspapers, since the rules for accusations has changed for politicians? Why isn't Hannity talking about this? Why isn't Rush talking about this? We are in a new era with new rules.
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said on Tuesday he supports the use of vaccinations to prevent diseases, drawing on his personal experience with polio, which he contracted as a two-year old.
Just imagine how different this country would be.....
I still miss Heinlein :-/
And now Pournelle is gone too...sigh
COMITY IS KILLING THE REPUBLIC!
Merriam-Webster defines Comity as a friendly social atmosphere : social harmony; a loose widespread community based on common social institutions.
Sounds benign, doesn’t it? Based on recent events in Washington, DC., IT IS ANYTHING BUT BENIGN! IT SIGNALS THE END OF AMERICA.
Let me explain.
With some, mainly partisan, exceptions, comity describes the pleasant, non-confrontational & collegial relationships between 100 senators and 435 representatives as they conduct OUR business. I guess we should be pleased that we no longer have those folks dueling over their disagreements. One such cost Alexander Hamilton his life at the hands of Aaron Burr in 1804. On second thought...
That said, if the concept of the rule of law and justice are to be restored, these people WE the people send to the levers of power here need to take off the gloves and operate somewhere between dueling and what we frequently see during the congressional hearings where, with exceptions (Trey Gowdy comes to mind), these folks take turns smacking one another around —WITH GOOSEDOWN PILLOWS!
Much of what goes on up there can probably be explained by the recent revelation that lobbyists for drug companies regularly haul van loads of FREE drugs up the Hill. The drug company Payola aspect of that aside, the word is that the bulk of those pharmaceuticals are ready DEMENTIA & ALZHEIMERS related! I guess 30 and 40 years in Washington can take a terrible toll but that’s an important problem only voters can and BETTER solve.
AG Jeff Sessions just appeared at a Senate hearing this morning. When Sessions was appointed, many of us had high hopes that he would move on the Obama era criminal Democrats (but I repeat myself!) and clean out the deep staters still infesting the DOJ. Almost a year in and THAT has not happened.
But what concerns many of us as much OR MORE is the recent description by former Rep. Jason Chaffetz of a meeting with Sessions during which Chaffetz asked if Sessions was going to pursue the serious and well documented allegations SOME SELF-CONFESSED of criminal conduct by Hillary Clinton and a veritable cavalcade of Obama lackeys. Sessions is reported to have responded to the effect that that was all in the past, etc.
LET THAT ...ALL IN THE PAST COMMENT SINK IN! Then ask yourself THIS question:
If you or I robbed a bank, kidnapped or killed someone, could we reasonably believe that a prosecutor might say Gee, that took place in the past so let’s just forgive and forget!
Because EVERY CRIME OCCURS at some PREVIOUS TIME to have occurred at all, does Sessions’ remark
defy rational, logical thought?;
indicate some level of mental impairment and Mr. Sessions is off his free meds?;
prove a point I’ve brought up in the past that, in the deep swamp of Washington, EVERYBODY has SOMETHING on EVERYBODY ELSE?
ALL OF THE ABOVE?
Serious TERMINAL nonsense like this is why I’m now convinced that America is in even deeper trouble than any of us thought and, sans MASSIVE electoral turnover, America ‘’ the PHILOSOPHICAL, IDEOLOGICAL IDEA left us by the Founders is over.

Thanks.
...somebody added “Moore” and the rest with a blue ink pen
***********************************
Also, notice the difference in the capital M in the word Merry and the one on the name Moore.
Thanks for the pic, as it’s the first time I’ve seen the blue and black ink. So obvious!
Remember that JOHN BOEHNER was discharged from the Navy after serving for 8 weeks. Supposedly due to a “bad back”.
“He reportedly has problems climbing stairs to this day. True? False?”
True.
There is video or picture which shows Trump helping McConnel up some stairs after a joint meeting.
Those able bodied peeps need to spend 40% of their time M-F 8-4:30 working for the Feds 40% of that time. Just like the rest of the Citizens. Otherwise lose their voting privileges.
LOL, I’ll go with #1.
Quite a few of Heinlein’s works should be mandatory reading, followed by appropriate dystopian discussion.
