5. The gop talking point "it's his behavior"

you don’t like, not that he’s a criminal.

[gratuitous]

13. Hatin' the sin, lovin' the sinner

You know, the sort of open-minded, indulgent, soft-on-crime attitude that Republicans are famous for. At least when the miscreant is one of their own.

Now, let's talk about the constitutional imperative to execute socialists, which some dumbass Montana Republican has convinced himself is real. In case you're interested, his name is Rodney Garcia:

Wonkette Story here.

15. Yeah, after a whole litany of other excuses it seems they've landed on this one permanently. nt

7. Hope they don't give her another term. Coward.

[FeelingBlue]

8. I do not understand.

How can fear be so paralyzing that one fails to do the right thing?? How can she live with herself this way? It makes no sense.

[spanone]

10. she wins the susan collins drama award....

'shameful and wrong'....That sounds more like Bill Clinton... who didn't withhold over $400 MILLION of congressionally allotted dollars to bribe another president to

investigate his political rival.

[Goodheart]

11. Why is it "shameful" if it's not criminal? Why is it "wrong" if it's not criminal?

[Frustratedlady]

12. I seem to remember another issue where McConnell offered Murkowski and a couple others one hell of a

deal and Murkowski still held out until he improved it. Can't remember the issue, but I remember thinking Murkowski was working McConnell and won.

Anyone else remember that? ACA, maybe?

[Iliyah]

14. STFU . . .

Now shithole and allies are going after his opposition which will be totally illegal. Then what . .

Republicans don't care.

Anywho again, he will be in trouble again and again and again while the USA suffers.

Vote the Republicans out!

[struggle4progress]

17. "They told me they know where I live"

[rockfordfile]

18. She made the choice to betray the USA

22. If it had been Obama

she would have voted for the death penaly.
