Thank God the judge denied their request for the names and addresses of the jury this morning. Remember when CNN threatened to dox the supposed creator of a Trump-CNN wresting meme? Or when they showed up at some woman's house that just shared memes on FaceBook?
The Opti Board I-Troll 5. Destroying connectivity of friends since 2010.
Nobody has done less for this forum than he. We have had foreign invaders, stalkings, shat senders, and more, but none as vile as Ronald. I made the analogy of a poker game before. I now feel that not only were the cards and drinks knocked over, but the man has decided to take a pizz on the felt.
The TDS never ends. This nation's mental health is on the decline.
The media refuses to say the truth. They would rather bash the fash than tell stories of a muslim extremist teaching children to gun down children in our schools with AK-47s? Or, one of the supposed terrorists kids found in a shallow grave? Or, how about the release on bail of said foreign invader?
We do not even report news here like before. Nobody seems to care. We just had a silencing of free speech on social media, the media MOST use to communicate. Free speech. Let it sink in.
That is the question that is raised by the preceding message from Tony Kania.
I could tick off the names of some members who used to be active here, but gave it up because they were offended by the Only My Political and Cultural Leanings Have A Right To Be Represented Here attitude that flows from the preceding message the way that crude oil once flowed from the remains of the Deep Horizon offshore drilling platform in the Gulf of Mexico.
Two of those members were "small c" conservatives.
I know, because of the PMs that I've received.

"small "c" as in whiny little leftist c*nts.
Because actual conservatives DO NOT "give up because they were offended"
NOBODY believes your constant lies Ronald
I know of only ONE ideological bunch of jabbering butt plugs that lead their entire lives and make all their decisions based on feelings or emotions...
....and you're a member of that bunch.
STOP LYING Ronald

Although I'm sure Manafort is probably guilty of several of the things he's being charged for, the questions I have are:
1 - How can they even bring this to trial when the majority of the information was taken through illicit means? 2 - What does this have to do with Russia, or Russian "collusion?"
The whole thing is absolutely insane... and Democrats should be completely embarrassed that they're bastardizing our constitutional Republican for the sole purpose of election marketing strategy.
The Special Counsel (Robert Swan Mueller III) leads. I follow.
IIWII.
I dispute the notion that was expressed here, in previous discussion, that if President Trump himself is not ever accused of directly and personally participating in an election conspiracy involving the Russian Federation (or entities of other foreign nations... UAE, in particular; possibly Israel) then it follows that the Special Counsel's investigation should be consigned to History as a "waste."
I strongly dispute that idea.
No. Definitely not a "waste" or a "washout."Â Exactly the opposite, in fact. A Bigly Amount of Bang for the Investigative Bucks.
Konstantin Kilimnik... for some reason, his playing card has gone missing. How suspicious is that?

Interesting that 30 years ago, the children of interracial marriages were not accepted well by either race.
I guess the election of BHO did improve some aspects of interracial relations.
My parents surely would not accept that from me, but it was not an issue for my brother who married an American Indian. One of my many reasons to dislike lying hypocrites.
30 years ago I was engaged to a Mexican woman. Folks were not pleased.
I've used that very same legal and biologically correct term before, as well as the proper term *negro*, (and still do), and have been scolded by SJWs, nitwits and mental defectives that "the proper term" is bi-racial or black.
I laugh and go right on using the nomenclature that *I* wish to.
There will NEVER come a time in my life where I will ever allow anyone to police MY speech.
I'm often amused how much effort the lefties put into renaming things that they are uncomfortable with or wish to camouflage the reality or truth of.
The $cientology cult has a term: alter-is, which means, "To alter the way something really is, and thus to create a persistence."
In that same sense, leftist followers, (just as Ronald has admitted to be in this thread), are like followers of a cult.

And exactly how many link criminal action to Trump? Hummmmm, how suspicious.....

Despite your obviously rhetorical questions, we all know that it has absolutely nothing to do with Russia or Russians or the president.
What is truly astonishing about any of it is how completely moronic Cohen is for:
1. Retaining LANNY DAVIS, a long time CLINTON lackey and operative, as his lawyer who promptly walked him into pleading guilty to something that ISN'T A CRIME.
2. (Cohen) being such an obviously bad lawyer himself in not understanding that both he and the president can freely pay any amount they wish, to whoever they wish, as long as campaign money or donations were not used.
John Edwards came under indictment back in 2008 for campaign finance violations because he DID use campaign contributions / funds to pay "hush money" to his mistress. He was found not guilty on one count, and the judge declared a mistrial on the remaining five charges, as the jury was unable to come to an agreement. The Justice Department dropped the remaining charges and did not attempt to retry him.
In 2008 OBAMA tried to actually hide $2 MILLION in illegal campaign funds and merely paid a fine.
Ostensibly, President Trump AND, his then private counsel, Cohen, used their own private funds which ISN'T A CRIME.
As Don likes to say; "morons abound".
(The criticism that these 2 clips are from Fox News is predictable , but will ring hollow against the FACT that these are 2 very highly accomplished lawyers, one of them a lifelong DEMOCRAT.)

By the way, if there was any doubt as to WHY President Trump's former attorney, Michael Cohen, would even hire a CLINTON lackey and operative, (Lanny Davis), as his lawyer, consider this:
Michael L. "Mike" Cohen was a Democratic member of the New York State Assembly, representing the 28th Assembly District in Queens County, New York.
The left has no problem "eating it's own" if it's "for the cause".

The Michael Cohen that just pleaded guilty before the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York--the Michael Cohen that is closely linked with President Trump--is Michael Dean Cohen. He's the "Trump" Michael Cohen.
I am puzzled by the reference to Michael L. Cohen, who was a Democratic member of the New York State Assembly, and represented the 28th Assembly District in Queens County, New York.
My first thought was that Michael L. Cohen is (or was) Michael Dean Cohen's father, but what I see on Wikipedia(.com) seems to contradict this idea. The Wikipedia entry for Michael Dean Cohen--the "Trump" Michael Cohen--describes Michael Dean Cohen's father as a "surgeon" and a survivor of the Holocaust.
The Wikipedia entry for Michael L. Cohen describes Michael L. Cohen as a "former New York City Transit worker." There is no reference in the brief Wikipedia entry for Michael L. Cohen about his ever having been a surgeon or anything like a surgeon. Nor is there any direct or indirect reference to the Holocaust.
I won't say that Wikipedia is infallible, but my current thought is that "randye" has likely confused New York State Assembly (D) Michael L. Cohen with the Trump organization's Michael Dean Cohen. Or is there some other explanation?

*** A day in the life of former New York State Assemblyman (D) Michael L. Cohen ***
Walks to nearby Starbucks for his first coffee of the day Hey look guys, it's the crooked lawyer that tried to put one over on President Trump. What a loser. Hey, Michael Cohen. When did you flunk out of law school? Did you ever get a piece of that Stormy Daniels? Can I have your autograph? "I'm not THAT Michael Coehn." Yeah, yeah. That's what they ALL say.
Cell phone rings Hello, Michael Cohen? I'm a reporter for the Failing New York Times. Could I have a comment about the latest move by the Southern District of New York? Allen Weisselberg being granted immunity in exchange for his testimony? Whad'ya think about that, Mr Cohen? "I'm not THAT Michael Cohen."
I'll have a latte. Your name, sir? Michael. You're the third "MIchael" this morning, and the other two are still waiting for their orders. Michael Cohen. You're Michael Cohen? Hey look at my laptop. I was just messin' around with Google and I see this weird discussion about "Michael Cohen" on some online messages board I've never seen before. Pennock's Fiero Forum. Pennock? Who the hell is that? What's a Fiero? Anyway, I see where... "I'm not THAT Michael Cohen."
Ronald freely admits researching the Wikis for BOTH Cohens, (I knew he would), but he STILL won't come clean about the political "pedigree" of Michael DEAN Cohen.
Ronald even goes into his usual multiple rambling paragraphs, jabbering about Cohens and STILL never utters a single peep about the politics of Michael DEAN Cohen that he, (and everyone else), knows were right there.
WHY?
Because Ronald doesn't like the TRUTH:
Michael DEAN Cohen volunteered for the 1988 presidential campaign of DEMOCRAT Michael Dukakis, was an intern for DEMOCRAT Congressman Joe Moakley, and voted for BARACK OBAMA in 2008
In 2003, he unsuccessfully ran as a Republican for the New York City Council from the Fourth Council District (a Manhattan district). Cohen received 4,205 votes, and was defeated by Democratic candidate Eva S. Moskowitz, who received 13,745 votes. In 2010, Cohen briefly campaigned for a seat in the New York State Senate AS A DEMOCRAT. He was a registered DEMOCRAT until he officially registered as a Republican on March 9, 2017. <----- AFTER THE ELECTION OF PRESIDENT TRUMP

I don't give a damn about the political this or that of (former) Trump associate Michael Dean Cohen.
I still want to know what Michael L. Cohen has to do with any of this.
Did Michael Dean Cohen change his middle name to "L." ..? Or vice-versa?
Did "randye" purposely use "Michael L. Cohen" as some kind of setup? So he could bait me into checking this out online? That seems kind of hard to fathom. And what does this say about "randye"..? If he mistakenly confused Michael L. Cohen with Michael Dean Cohen, "randye' was--well--mistaken. If he purposely used Michael L. Cohen just to set up this conversation, then he's "nuts." But I hardly need any more evidence on that score.
As far as Tony K (Kania)... he's kind of a mystery to me.
Whatever.

After getting his client, Michael DEAN Cohen, to claim guilt for acts that are NOT A CRIME, the long time CLINTON CRIME FAMILY OPERATIVE and "fixer", Lanny Davis, is now forced to admit that he also LIED to every media source that he could.
So much for your "house of cards" Ronald.
What the hell is it with you leftists and your constant, compulsive LYING?
