If anyone here thinks that the typical politician, repub or dem, would refrain from acquiring opposition dirt from a foreign country, then you need to stop reading "Polly Anna" so much. I think most of them would do it in a second. It's unfortunate that so many of our national elections seem to degenerate into, "Don't vote for my opponent. He's an idiot."
You poor confused conservatives. Can't tell the difference between a company,of lawyers and ex spies for hire by politicos, from a foreign government with an agenda. That's a shame and no wonder you fall under the dufus of Dufus's lies, and deceptions. Messing with the foreign governments is illegal and should be reported, as was the case with the Steele Dossier, and he was interviewed by the FBI.
"On 9-10 May of this year," the May 14 memorandum explained, "Sen. Edward Kennedy's close friend and trusted confidant [John] Tunney was in Moscow." (Tunney was Kennedy's law school roommate and a former Democratic senator from California.) "The senator charged Tunney to convey the following message, through confidential contacts, to the General Secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, Y. Andropov."Kennedy's message was simple. He proposed an unabashed quid pro quo. Kennedy would lend Andropov a hand in dealing with President Reagan. In return, the Soviet leader would lend the Democratic Party a hand in challenging Reagan in the 1984 presidential election. "The only real potential threats to Reagan are problems of war and peace and Soviet-American relations," the memorandum stated. "These issues, according to the senator, will without a doubt become the most important of the election campaign."Kennedy made Andropov a couple of specific offers.
First he offered to visit Moscow. "The main purpose of the meeting, according to the senator, would be to arm Soviet officials with explanations regarding problems of nuclear disarmament so they may be better prepared and more convincing during appearances in the USA." Kennedy would help the Soviets deal with Reagan by telling them how to brush up their propaganda.Then he offered to make it possible for Andropov to sit down for a few interviews on American television. "A direct appeal ... to the American people will, without a doubt, attract a great deal of attention and interest in the country. ... If the proposal is recognized as worthy, then Kennedy and his friends will bring about suitable steps to have representatives of the largest television companies in the USA contact Y.V. Andropov for an invitation to Moscow for the interviews. ... The senator underlined the importance that this initiative should be seen as coming from the American side." Kennedy would make certain the networks gave Andropov air time--and that they rigged the arrangement to look like honest journalism.

Your not implying the dufus and Vlad have it right, or saying that Kennedy's actions excuse the dufus now are you Tom?
no I was illustrating the difference between the sting /coup operation that Evita and the FBI pulled on Trump and a REAL case of colluding with Russia.
I didn't say anything about any of that. I just made a general statement.Quote:

Heard a video today where Obama said, "Anyone (not true) can buy any gun (not true) at any time (not true). Only eight words but three flatly false statements. So you poor liberals. You think your anointed leaders are always telling the truth. And that would be a fourth flatly false statement.
# 4 'if you like your doctor you can keep your doctor. '
The loonies and homicidal maniacs and psychopaths doesn't seem to have a problem getting a gun and shooting up churches, malls, concerts, movie theaters and schools.Quote:

Adam Lanza used guns from his mother's gun collection (Glock 9-mm handgun, a Sig Sauer 9-mm handgun and a Bushmaster rifle) at Sandy Hook. And anyone, including any legal gun owner, can flip into homicidal rage or calculated killing -- for example, the recent mass murderer in Virginia Beach.Quote:

We can leave normal ordinary folks alone as long as we verify that if you don't mind. Unless you think we have done enough and screw the victims which seems to grow in number. I know you want to protect those innocent kids don't you JL?
What do you propose we do about that?Quote:

We have also seen a spike in people driving cars into crowds of people and killing and maiming many. I have not noticed anyone suggesting we ban cars and vans.
The penny will drop one day, disturbed people cannot have guns or cars and cops would do better filling in their time observing rather than collaring low level drug takersQuote:

I'm all for keeping guns out of the hands of people who are mentally unstable, but I have no idea of how to do it.
why not just be honest and say you want a ban on all gun ownership ? and of course this is completely off topic .
I don't want to ban anything that is currently legal. I would like for people who love to point out problems to tell us what they are proposing we do.Quote:

I shouldve been clear . My comment was not directed at you .We have gun laws that routinely get broken and then they propose more gun laws that end up being directed and punish honest folks who don't break the law.I'm just pointing out their true goal . You notice they rarely bring up the Democrat cities that are shooting galleries .The guns used there are not semi-autos .They are legal guns obtained illegally .
Read this today. "Mr. Weisburd said that in his studies of larger cities, about 1 percent of the streets produce 25 percent of the crime and about 5 percent of the streets produce 50 percent of the crime."Quote:

We know that about 2 or 3% of the population commit half the murders. Never gets talked about.
Get rid of all guns.Quote:

George knew this so he conjured up an ethical strawman .
