I suspect you're so 'locked in' to punish Pelosi for 'some' reason that you've closed your mind to your real values and ethics.
You're making excuses for her because you dislike the war.
Pelosi is NOT my girl! Her actions could be deemed wrong - that I don't really know!
The inevitable backslide... You previously said that her actions WERE wrong. Now you're saying that they could be "deemed wrong" as if the matter has to be go through some kind of judgment phase where nature of the action has to be debated.
Sir, I am at least consistent in what I have said and have dealt with you fairly and more importantly honestly. You have first attempted to cast yourself as an inpartical independent who was so jaded by bad DC politics that you didn't see the point in punishing her.
When I pointed out that that attitude merely protects people like Pelosi you then morphed into a supporter of her actions and cast doubt upon whether her actions were really wrong in the first place.
This is dishonest and I'm not going to play shadow games with you. This is not because I lack the ability but because such exercises bore me.
I do not believe in 'selective' applications of my beliefs and values. Right is right and wrong is wrong. But, we live in a political environment, like it or not - admit to it or not, that gives but 'lip' service to values and principles.
Indeed we do, and it is people such as yourself that selectively apply such values on the left AND the right that allow it to continue. You must punish pelosi REGARDLESS just as any republican should be punished REGARDLESS.
No one is above the law.
If we are to punish ONE - then, we must punish them ALL! Like, starting with Bush and Cheney, then all members of Congress.
Indeed, and where did Bush violate the separation of powers?
He didn't. So in fact you want someone that didn't commit a crime to be punished BEFORE you'll condone punishing someone that by your OWN admission DID commit a crime.
that is pathetic.
For instance, Bush has killed over 3,000 of our soldiers - all based on a lie that all media agrees upon - plus many other lies to cover each preceding lie.
Not a crime. Bush didn't kill people, they were killed in a military engagement that he had every legal right to start.
So what is your LEGAL argument. If you don't have one then YOU DO NOT HAVE ONE.
Yet, you find Pelosi's dubious action more grievous than Bush's. Doesn't make sense at all!
Considering one was illegal and one was not I don't really know what you're smoking.
What's that old saying - What's good for the goose is good for the gander!
I completely agree so long as we're talking about the same thing that's being given to both. And considering that you want bush punished despite breaking no laws and you want pelosi spared despite breaking laws I think you should consider the integrity of your claims. Just because it's spouted on highly biased webblogs doesn't mean it's rational thinking.
