Discussion»Statements»Rosie's Corner» Xray of depravity/descent into he**. "It was perfect. He didn't do it." "He did it but there was nothing wrong with it." NEXT?
Our My 2 Cents is making the most INTERESTING commentary about this. This whole thing can be explained by her. The deocrated Colonel Vintman (you know who I mean, I cannot keep up with the spellings of all these characters, I'm still on the Kavanaugh hearing and spelling that turd sandwich's name right....I digress) Anyway, My 2 thinks that this Colonel is a liar and a leaker. That explains it.
Mick Mulvaney said that Donald Trump committed this crime and Trump told him to say this. We KNOW this. He was snotty and IN YOUR FACE about it, so much so, that he got Trump IMPEACHED. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
He said they do it all the time and get over it. This colonel states in a court of law that he tried to ensure that the omitted parts of the transcript were NOT omitted since it dealt with the threat to American security and that is his life's purpose and training that he was wounded in Iraq for us for.
She thinks he is lying and that Trump who lied about bone spurs to STAY OUT OF ANY MILITARY ever, THIS CREEP said nothing WRONG on the Ukraine call. And we can believe this LOAD OF CRAP because according to LAURA LEGAL MIND INGRAM, THE OPINION that My 2 and the base needs to adopt now is that this GUY is a LEAKER and a TRAITOR because he was born in UKRAINE. ??? He escaped when he was 3 and spent his whole life thanking America for the privledge of living here. YOU KNOW. JUST LIKE TRUMP DOES by denigrating the military and its intelligence at every turn. Colonel Vindman SHREDDED Trump's story. SHREDDED IT. And I use My 2, because she is a prime example of how the members of Trump's base think like. I use her because she is proud of it.
??? I would die of embarrassment, she is proud. Anyway, so far the BASE says that HE DID NOTHING WRONG and The Colonel is a leaker and guilty of treason. LOL Beat that one.
Forgive me Sharon but I could not get through what m2c said. Remember our mutual experience with the Keith Olbermann book? We could not get through it? I cannot get through this. I avoid engaging in many postings from various people because I don't want to get upset annoyed. Why should I read what I already know will be said? All it will do is aggravate me. No benefit to me so I don't engage at all ever at any level mostly. See this way I just sail through untouched and what I don't read I cannot possibly object to or react to. I will always do this. It is to save my sanity. I am old. I take every precaution available to me to continue on. That is one of them Not reading some postings at all. Thank you for your reply.
No sweetie not at all. I like m2c bigly apart from her politics. I know you do too. She is a very nice person. We get along so swell elsewise. But I don't want to hate her so I cannot read her postings. I guess I cheat. If you can take it and not go ballistic GOD speed. I know my limitations. I know where the landmines are and I just avoid them. Okey dokey?
Yes. But if I ever think the base will sway, I go to her and get my answer. I was off work yesterday and waiting for Triple A so I was sucked into it. LOL I pride myself on not being shocked too much, but that woman shocks me with her support for his behavior.
SHOCKS ME. And there are MILLIONS OF HER. That's what floors me.
Honestly Sharon if I think about too hard it harms me. Seriously. Because I always wonder WHY and there is no why about the trump base that I can access that makes any sense to me. I've tried a lot and I fail every time. Just when I think I figgered it out or a very smart Answermugger will give me a link to read that "should" explain sometehing else comes up and well I'm back to square one. If I were smarter I'd have understood long ago. But I'm not and I don't. Thank you for your reply. She was there for me during a really tough time a few years ago. Her TRUE COLORS revealed themselves. So that's how I know there is a person of great value there. So I skirt around what bothers me as often as I can. Once in a while we connect on politics and I can't remember a single time it was pleasant. SIGH. :(
You seem to indicate that you might have no problems with an individual "apart from their politics."
And yet, you don't like Trump apart from his politics (and of course I know you don't like him); and I doubt you would suggest that you may have liked Hitler apart from his politics if you had gotten to know him as a regular guy---I mean, he did love and marry the Eva Braun and she must have thought him loveable.
Trump supporters want to normalize unethical actions by the president of the United States and allow him to override the "power of the purse" that is possessed by Congress---to say nothing of compromising our national security.
Trump said of Charlottesville that there were "good people on both sides."
I think the differences between those who support what Trump does and and those who oppose him is not just a question of differences of opinions---I think it is much deeper than that.

I was talking about my friendship with m2c. I hate her politics. However long ago she was there for me when I was bereft and down and depressed. We get along just fine elsewise otherwise in all ways. We are friends. She hates my politics too so when we discuss our prodon/antidon views we hold nothing back. Nothing. That has not tarnished or diminished or diluted the strong friendship we've enjoyed for years starting on Answerbag. As for other prodons I have no use for them. I don't care what else they are. But m2c and I have been friends for maybe 10 years. That will never change. I hope she changes that one thing I can't stand and I know she hopes I change that one thing she can't stand. I thought you and had an understanding. Apparently it was not so. It happens. I have misread others in the past to my chagrin. SIGH. Thank you for your reply and Happy Saturday to thy.

I understand (and knew) that she was there for you at at a very difficult time in your life, but I wanted to point out that sooner or later a time may come where any one of us finds their friends to be marching in a different direction that may well cause irreparable harm to both us and our other friends---and at that time, when opinions need to be vetted for accuracy and doing the right things for the right reasons becomes of paramount importance that we can leave behind those who wittingly or unwittingly would do us harm.
This is not easy for me m'dear. I have had at her for years saying the same things. She has responded more kindly than I adamantly convinced her views are true. She is the only one about whom I feel this way. I owe her and I always pay my debts. I do not stiff folks. Now honestly I hate her politics and she hates mine but she is tougher than I am and calmer and also nicer. I mean that sincerely. I don't read some of her postings because I know what they will say and I will only get angry again so what's the point? I said she is the only one about whom I feel that way but that's not true. Our son Gary is a staunch Republican. I love him dearly. I hate his politics. So we NEVER talk politics. I'm usually all in or all out. That's just my nature. But I try to be fair and treat folks as they treat me and I cannot ignore the caring she showed that was honest and sincere. Mebbe we operate on different levels because we have no choice. I consider her to be a good friend as much as you can be friends with someone you've never met in the "real" world. I know that if I need a helping hand spiritually or emotionally she will be there. How can I ignore that? I value our conversations so I was taken aback by your last postings. You do know that I am always honest and tell you what I think. Well this is what I think. I don't think it makes me a hypocrite but I am not the one to judge that. I appreciate your trying to clarify things between us. I do. Thank you for your reply and Happy Sunday to you tom! :)
I was hesitant to post what I did, but I felt it important to do so.
You brought up something that I was concerned about---namely that you owe her and you always pay your debts.
My personal philosophy has always been that religion and politics are worthy topics of discussion whenever they arise because except in times of war, human destiny has always been determined by the poverty of the human mind and the fertility of the human body---which means politics and religion are always relevant.
Opinions based on relevant facts are one thing; opinions based on consequent ignorance are something else. I'd like to see you make a final payment on that debt.
So do you not know when people have been there for you that you owe them something for that? How odd that it would disturb you. I have had many people in my life reach out to help me and I feel I OWE ALL OF THEM a debt. Which means that I would not attack such a one as that without an offsetting balancing comment on the good we enjoy. It is my obligation to be honorable and honest as much and as often as I can. I talk about what's going on in my life and my mind all the time. I don't know how else to be but me and that is me. Why it would concern you I cannot fathom. Seriously tom. You are a puzzlement to me. Thank you for your reply. I expect your concern is a kind thing. Why else would you state it, right? But I do not relate to is. My bad. Apolgies.
