I'll catch hell for this, but I'm proud of Representative Liz Cheney. Her opening statement...

[George II]

...was a scathing indictment of Meadows and trump and others.

She may be a republican who we all disagree with 90+% of the time, but she's an American first.

[Scottie Mom]

1. I just watched it and I agree.

She did not pull any punches.

[spooky3]

2. I also agree. Nt

[Beachnutt]

3. I'll hold my nose and

agree with you.

[mcar]

4. Just said same to DS

I deplore her politics but appreciate her commitment to this country.

[malaise]

5. Why?

I don’t have ro like her to admit that her presentation was excellent- they were all very good. Can.’t wait for the public hearings

[George II]

8. We don't have to like her in order to be proud of her.

[soldierant]

36. No pushback from me.

She has terrible opinions, but she has them with integrity. I can certainly admire integroty.

Interestly, "Psyche" on line just had an article about what constitutes honest in the newsletter from Aeon. Most interesting.

[bullwinkle428]

6. I wouldn't be surprised if she came up with the idea that they would "go live"

with this hearing at 7:00 EST this evening. That way, it would be broadcast live on all of the RELEVANT (cough, cough) political networks.

It was a total "boss move" on her part. Look, she's absolutely wretched when it comes to looking at things from a moral perspective, but some Republicans absolutely have their shit together when it comes to TACTICS. I'm more than happy to continue to use her for her tactical knowledge.

[Demsrule86]

7. I agree.

[Salviati]

9. I'm glad that she has drawn a line of violent suppression of democracy as being...

... a bridge too far. I'll hold my praise for her until she changes her mind about legislative suppression of democracy.

[Mary in S. Carolina]

13. +1

[blm]

10. She is doing what she needs to do to preserve the GOP

as a viable governing party. That means being an American patriot NOW before it’s too late.

[TomSlick]

11. Blind hogs and broken clocks.

Rep. Chaney was correct and very effectively made her case.

[bamagal62]

12. If she brings him down,

I might even decide to like her.

[IronLionZion]

14. She's doing good

I'll give her credit where it's due but I would never vote for her.

[Midnight Writer]

15. I was in the kitchen and heard her from the next room and thought "Wow, she's laying it out there"

Then when she started reading FOX texts I went in and saw it was Liz Cheney.

She passed the blindfold test.

Probably a lot more credibility and impact for folks hearing this takedown from a major Republican.

[llmart]

16. I agree.

She has more courage in her little finger than the rest of the trump ass kissers.

I'll give credit where credit is due. I don't agree with most of her policies, but at least she isn't afraid to stand up for her principles.

[ancianita]

17. Honesty is a virtue. Honesty in service of rule of law is justice.

I'll support any Republican who helps save this democracy by living up to her oath to protect, defend and enforce rule of law under the Constitution, and who is for majority, not minority, rule.
She misapprehends the centuries-old racism of her party, though.

[Skittles]

18. she's very much doing the right thing now

but never forget she very much helped to bring about the atrocity that is Donald Fucking Trump

[Susan Calvin]

33. I absolutely will never forget

But at least she isn't shoving the country off a cliff like the rest of the lemmings.

[NNadir]

19. In spite of her many flaws, history will record her in a favorable light for this alone.

I'm pleased that it will do so.

[Shellback Squid]

20. she's very intelligent, articulate and a formidable foe but a patriot first

[Hekate]

21. I completely agree with you. Thanks, George.

[Marcuse]

22. Oddly, there is no mention of this subject on the Freeper site.

[gab13by13]

23. Liz Cheney made it pellucidly clear,

that she is going after Donald Trump.

[DENVERPOPS]

24. Makes me wonder

if these pseudo nuevo Republicans that have been bad mouthing and trashing Liz, stopped to realize her daddy is THE Dick Cheney.
I'm sure Daddy Dick could easily influence all kinds of people in our intelligence agencies to leak all kinds of documented stuff to her to help her take on these Trumphumping Republicans..........

I think they really really really screwed up in taking on Liz Cheney and sticking with Trump and his ass kissing maggot followers.

I fully suspect the Repubs will counter this with some huge bullshit counter action........

[we can do it]

25. As far as her work on this committee, I heartily agree.

Her voting record still sucks.

[RussBLib]

26. Liz is redeeming the Cheney name

a little bit. there is more to come.

[leftstreet]

27. DU will be wild when she's the GOP front runner

[Susan Calvin]

29. Well,

It's better than almost any other Republican I can think of.

[leftstreet]

32. Well,

not for the Democratic front runner

[Susan Calvin]

34. This is probably true

Although maybe there are enough crazy trumpers out there that would stay home rather than vote for her.

[Susan Calvin]

35. By better,

I meant something resembling an actual human being. I wasn't thinking so much about her chances of winning.

[azureblue]

38. who knows? maybe she would return us to the days when Repubs and Dems could disagree,

but always had the good of the country first and foremost. And could carry on an informed and civil discourse. Yes, Child, once upon a time, the Repubs were like that...

[leftstreet]

40. That's what Pelosi is hoping for

She's said more than once that "we need a strong Republican party"

Not sure if that means she'd be happy with a Liz Cheney POTUS, but who knows

[Polybius]

41. Not if you like endless wars

And lies to start them.

[bullwinkle428]

43. She will become a lame duck in August, 2022, if she loses the primary.

[Susan Calvin]

28. I hate her, her family, their associates, and her ilk, but

She may well be the one who saves us. And I am grateful.

[Tree Lady]

30. Everyone has always said how scary Dick is

But my cousin who used to be friends with him back in VA before he was VP said his wife was the scary one not him. My cousins are rich republicans who at that time were on board of Mobil Oil and Dick was a oil guy and their neighbor.

So basically she was raised by two tough ass parents.

[SergeStorms]

31. I'm proud of her being a true American....

not so much of her being an arch-conservative. She's a true patriot, yes.

[Deuxcents]

37. She has put country over party

For that, I don’t care..she’s her own person n doesn’t seem to be marching to any drummer but her own.

BTW.. I’m good with that so far. So far.

[broiles]

39. While I disagree with her politics I admire her integrity.

[LiberalFighter]

42. I would like to see Rachel Maddow have her on and interview her.
