Lisa Murkowski: Why are the Democrat House Managers Demanding That We Go Through the Hassle of Calling Witnesses Whom They Themselves Refused to Call?
Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska), who has been seen as a swing vote, appeared wary of a legal fight, characterizing House Democrats as trying to get the Senate to go through a legal battle they bypassed. "It's kind of like the House made a decision that they didn't want to slow things down by having to go through the courts," she said. "And yet now they’re basically saying you guys need to go through the courts. We didn't but we need you to. That's kind of where we are."That doesn't mean she's against calling witnesses. She's flighty and liberal. But the Democrats can't be happy to hear the one indispensable "Republican" making the Lindsey Graham case against calling witnesses. More: Susan Collins was so "stunned" by Jerry Nadler's claim that anyone who voted against the rules the Democrats wanted was engaged in a "cover up" that she wrote to John Roberts, demanding that he caution the House managers. This, I suppose, was what prompted John Roberts' "Both sides" missive a few days ago. More: Via Twitchy, not-cute bimbo Alisyn Camarota offers a brief criticism of Adam Schiff before being, it appears, told by Jeff Zucker through her earpiece to get Back on Message.
Alisyn Camerota delivered a VERY rare criticism of Adam Schiff on CNN this morning, and I'm pretty sure a producer told her in her ear to get back to the purpose of today's show which is lobbying Lisa Murkowski.

In fact, Collins has said that she sent that note to him immediately before he made his statement.
I think it's a window in to Robert's role here, which is what I expected. For all the claims of "Roberts will do this, or Roberts will do that" made by either side, the reality is that Roberts is just gonna sit there quietly and do what he's told to do. He's not a risk taker - he only jumped when a senior GOP Senator poked a stick into his ass.

What did you steal? asked the judge.

Hmmmm...the judge is not trying to thrown an old lady into the slammer for a long time, but still needs to render a verdict. So he asks, How many peaches in the can?
6 peaches she replied.
OK, says the judge, 6 peaches, 6 days in county lockup.
Before anyone could say anything, an old man raises his hand and says, Judge, I'm her husband, I want to point out that she also stole a can of peas.

Sadly, I think still it is premature, and incautious, to ascribe even a rudimentary level of competence to my beloved GOP Establishment when they are involved in anything political that affects the Constitution and the country.

Think of Roberts as the reincarnation of David Souter by the first GHWB. Someone with little paper trail, looks good on tv, right credentials, and willing to play the political game of hiding his true preferences and most importantly willing to bend the agenda of the court to stare decisis rather than rolling back liberal precedents like Roe v. Wade. Roberts is an incrementalist at best and an unprincipled political hack at his worst.

I disagree - I don't think he's great, and I think he's way too concerned with the public perception of the Court and trying to maintain an ideological "balance" - but name any Chief Justice of the last 80 years and I can show you a long list of decisions they participated in that were as bad as anything Roberts has done.
I would say that what I dislike most about him is that he's just another typical Chief Justice.

It will be interesting, maybe disgusting, to see how the Q&A session goes. Sixteen hours are scheduled; 16 hours x 60 minutes = 960 minutes. Divided by 100 Senators = 9.6 minutes per question and answer, if each Senator gets to ask one question, and McConnell and Schumer impose an equal time for each Senator's question.
Hell, Schiff can easily filibuster for 9 minutes without saying anything, just like Obummer did in press conferences.

Roberts had first been nominated to replace O'Connor, but Rehnquist died while his nomination was pending so Bush changed it to Chief Justice.
Harriet Miers was the next nominee to replace O'Connor but the pushback was so strong the nomination was rather quickly withdrawn and Alito substituted.

For being a show written by Hollywood commies, TNG knocked it out of the park with The Borg - they created the perfect face of communism/socialism/fascism/all other forms of Collectivism.
With the sci-fi trapping of a cybernetic hive mind, they showed what an absolute horror it is to completely obliterate the individual will and subordinate it to the "Greater Good".
As with every other such movement, they maintained the lie of "improving your quality of life" in the face of dismal, dreary realities that no sane being would willingly endure.
And their technological adaptation reflects the world of politics, and how they are forever changing their labels and hiding behind other movements, so that nothing that works against them once ever does again. "Real Socialism has never been tried!", etc.

And slowly my annoyance grows to the point that I grind my teeth. And then start swearing under my breath. And then I turn around and scream cuss words at them, insisting that I have been convinced that I will never do what they want me to do so help me God Almighty.
Now, maybe I am unique in my reaction to this sort of stuff, but I suspect that a lot of people are approaching the "screaming and threatening stage" with the media.

I disagree, his Obamacare decision disgusted me and apparently the dissent as well. His Census decision recently was reprehensible. Roberts apparently does the Warren Burger thing where he waits for the others to commit during merits and then tries to manipulate the decision through the opinions process. In the last century, White, Taft, Hughes, and Rehnquist were truly great chief justices and apparently fair to those serving with them on the court. The political chiefs, where politics outweighs the Constitution are Warren, Burger, Fiske, and now Roberts. Vinson was merely meh. Warren was pretty bad but that was also because conservatives were outnumbered on the court, Warren did not have to dissemble.
For this, I would more or less count his appointment as an unfortunate extension of the fruitless GWB presidency.
However, from all appearances, most of the FISA mess is also directly linked to Roberts as he appoints the judges and the chief judge and must have known about the stench coming from that court over political operatives using the national security apparatus to spy.
I hope that he is forced out of office for that alone as not befit of being a Chief Justice. That is what blind institutionalism and political gamesmanship will do. His cowardice in not calling out this abuse during the Obama years should never be forgotten. He willing spat on his oath to the Constitution by rubber stamping illegal searches under his watch that created pain and suffering for others. Since he did not call it out, he is a participant and should pay the piper in reputation and loss of office.

Yeah, it's anecdotal, but compared to the fever pitch when he got elected, the TDS sufferers here are practically subdued. It used to be in every other conversation. Anytime more than 5 people gathered, the far-lefty would make a crack about Trump. Now? It's almost like many have rediscovered the concept of "polite company."
So, I figure that most have either tuned out completely, or they've realized that they can't be on the Dem's side. That's not the same as being on Trump's, but it's only one step away from realizing which one is the 'greater evil'.

My rather lame theory is that the Dems do NOT want witnesses. Their calculation may be that the Republicans have no interest in stretching out the clown show, and for that reason will not permit/pursue the witness route.
The likely reason that the Dems are making all of the noise is so that they can continue, ad infinitum, to crow 'Coverup!', 'What are they hiding?', etc., etc. for the rest of history.

As I posted a day or two ago, I have no doubt DeepStaters have leaked to Schiff all of the documents he is demanding, and have related to him many of the conversation notes and transcripts of PDR-Bolton, PDT-Mulvaney, and other conversations. If there are "bombshells" in there that take down PDT, we'd have already heard and seen them.

Ah, but Morocco is safe. Well, 'safe'. Tourism is big business there. Once you get out into the desert, non touristy areas though, well, beheading's happen. The Dakar Rally used to go through Morocco (along with other parts of North Africa). They had to move the race to South America for a few years because of the Religion of Peace. They raced it in Saudi Arabia this year. No beheading's that I know of happened though.

Ask an bigot, zealot, racist, etc. why they hate a group--while they will often state all sorts of policy reasons but few will admit that their hatred stems from envy, spite, revenge, and a desire to elevate themselves over others via power because in their mind, the current order cannot be just if they are not leading it.
