I'm very proud of her, but all she has done was display a really good work ethic, with a good attitude, and demonstrate dependability.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

Spanish is excellent. Not only is it practical, in that we are becoming a more "brown" nation, but it also engages different parts of the brain. My only comment on that would be to recognize that there is "Spain" Spanish and "Mexican" Spanish, and if you speak "Spain" Spanish to our Mexican friends, they're gonna look at you funny.

Support flips against impeachment as Trump approval rating jumps: Poll
A new poll shows support for the impeachment of President Trump has declined since public hearings have started.
The Emerson poll released Thursday found support for impeachment has dropped from 48% to 43% since October, while opposition to impeachment has risen from 44% to 45%.
Independents are key in the shift, with 49% opposing impeachment and only 34% supporting impeachment. In October, 48% of independents supported impeachment and 39% opposed.
The poll also showed Trump's approval rating rising to a net positive. Forty-eight percent approved of the president while 47% disapproved. His approval rating was only 43% a month ago.
Whereas (as much as the TrumpHaters don't like to admit it) Impeachment (as we know it) is an entirely political animal, and
Whereas the Democrats were obviously convinced they would cause a huge shift in support for Trump's impeachment AND removal, and
Whereas the public seems weary of this whole thing....
Do the Democrats push forward? Can they admit they made a mistake? Are they FORCED to continue on in spite of having put on a terrible prosecution?
Where do you think this will go next?The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

Originally posted by JimL View PostNo, the first part is just an obvious fact, you're a Trump supporter, which for some reason you're ashamed to admit, and since Trump obviously has no respect for the law or the constitution, then neither do you my friend.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

it's their job to uncover and present the facts to you.
If the american people, like yourself et. al., are no longer able to think for themselves, that's the countries problem, not the Dems.
Now THAT's a winning strategy --- "Hey Independents, you're too STUPID to see the incredibly powerful case we've laid out [cough sputter], but, hey, vote for us come re-election".
"The Dems know what they're doing"
The biggest swing is among Independents, who oppose impeachment now 49% to 34%, which is a reversal from October where they supported impeachment 48% to 39%.
But, rest assured, ye gentle merrymen! The Dems know what they're doing!!!The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

I have to admit, this gave me quite a chuckle....
Originally posted by JimL View PostThe Dems know what they're doing...
Democrats hoped it would be the week that Donald Trump was hoist with his own petard.
A parade of witnesses, including former aides to the president, strode into Congress to deliver seemingly damning testimony to the impeachment inquiry.
But the blockbuster hearings, which reached a huge television audience, appeared instead to have swung public support back towards Mr Trump.
A national poll by Emerson College, taken during the hearings, between Nov 17 and Nov 20, found 45 per cent now oppose impeaching the president, with 43 per cent in favour.
In October the same poll had a majority, 48 per cent, in favour of impeachment, with 44 per cent opposed.
But the Dems know what they're doing - it's the voters who are too stupid to see it.

Originally posted by Cow Poke View PostI'm glad they've convinced you.
Actually, since they've made this a public spectacle, is IS their job to convince me. And me in particular, because they are absolutely losing us Independents.
And a rip-roaring job they've done, by golly.

I know that's probably not somthing that you can understand,
but they are carrying out their oath to protect and preserve the constitution.
Republicans, on the other hand, including constituents like yourself,
are out to protect and serve the dear leader who has proven himself to have no regard for the law or the constitution. Good Job!The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.
