Reagan was never in danger of impeachment proceedings. He was bedeviled by Lawrence Walsh, whose office was eventually shut down for cause at the end of the 1st Bush Administration. When Democrats were subjected to the splendors of the independent counsel law, they agreed to let it expire.

Bush Sr. wasn’t in long enough for them to really go after him. Also, they were able to push him around so much that they didn’t consider him a threat. Rest assured if he had been re-elected they would have found a reason to go after him.

Walsh had it in for Bush, and secured an indictment of Caspar Weinberger days before the 1992 election. The indictment was substantively absurd and invalid due to the passage of time. At that point, Bush shut down the office and issued pardons to a mess of people.

They went after Bush Jr. with the “Bush Lied, People Died” meme.

There were no impeachment proceedings, just the usual propaganda campaigns and congressional committee harassment. That’s what they do. They may be the occidental world’s most mendacious political organization.

They went after Bush Jr. with the “Bush Lied, People Died” meme. They just couldn’t make it stick enough to progress to an impeachment vote because people still remembered and approved of his handling of 9/11. But, that is definitely what they were aiming for. If they had taken control of the House a little sooner in his administration they would have gotten there I assure you.

I don’t want to re-argue the Nixon case because positions are so hardened after all these years it would be a waste of both of our time. Just suffice it to say that I disagree with your over-simplified and incomplete summary of the situation.

There was no attempt to impeach Reagan, Bush pere or Bush fils. There actually were hearings on impeachment resolutions in re Nixon, but he resigned before the House voted. There was a reason there were impeachment resolution in re Nixon: his campaign staff committed crimes, and he authorized efforts to bribe them to fall on their swords.

I agree with this. I don’t know how it will turn out. How many people have read Kurt Schlicter’s novel, “People’s Republic?” I hope it remains fiction.

And his buddies know it, too. About him and about themselves.
They’re no Michael Flynn, person of actual accomplishment.
And they are NOT going to let him get away with it.
It’s awful/horrifying and comically sad at the same time.

I have long thought those who think Obama is a fool are – foolish.

It is one of the many times when people underestimate the enemy. Not only do I believe it’s incorrect, I also believe it’s dangerous.

I never thought Obama to be anything close to being a fool. Now, I don’t think he’s a genius. But I think he’s smart, strategic, aware, and well able to pull off a certain persona that appeals to people and disarms people.

Does that mean he acts totally alone, and is 100% in charge of everything he does and every tactic he comes up with? No. He has leftist allies, supporters, colleagues, advisors. But he is a very big player in the decisions he makes and the actions he takes. He is a leftist ideologue and always has been. He has been told, and has believed, ever since early adulthood, that he can and will be president. He is also ruthless, as I have written several times before.

The jury is not out.

If one needed any further evidence on the importance of control of the presidency and the Senate for judicial appointments…here it is.

Sullivan well knows he will be smacked down by the D.C. Circuit. That’s not the point. The point is to keep the Flynn circus in the news a little bit longer, so the MSM can spin, spin and spin it as more evidence of the partisan DOJ, Flynn’s obvious guilt of….something, and Trump’s obvious undue influence. More time for faux outraged tirades about Trump turning our legal system into a banana republic.

Progressives are masters of political projection. Whenever they accuse Trump or anyone in his administration of anything improper, you can bet the Obama administration was guilty of exactly that thing and/or the next Democrat administration will be.

What part of guilty of perjury when accused until proven innocent belongs to a fool?
