Soliciting interference from a foreign government in our future elections
vs
fellatio in the oval office and other acts, but lying about it

So in one case, it affects the very foundations of the government and in the other it exposes a marriage of convenience and shows a opposition party that gave a pass to Eisenhower for the same thing.

Which one should disturb us?

Yes, I have been watching it for 50 years. The right and left are oil and water and do not mix for obvious reasons.

Here is the thesis of why the left and right cannot be brought together.

The left lives their lives by facts, and logic, and more or less live in the world of reality, to the extent that is possible, which incidentally is why they are more humane than the right.

And the left understands and the importance of education.

The right lives their lives by myths, and blind conformity, which results in them living in a fantasy world.

The right does not view education with the same reverence of the left. In fact many Republicans think education is bad.

The only solution, which is happening, as evidenced by our increasingly humanitarian world, is to educate the Right---at which point they will move to the left-:)>!

The gop trains republicans (like we train dogs to roll over) to hate Democrats.

President Clinton was impeached because he balanced the budget and exposed the lies or Reagan and his tax cuts. They can't stand success. Trump has an economy that's kept alive by massive government debt, tax cuts and a Fed lowering rates even when there isn't any inflation.

If Trump lied about a bj every republican would say it's not impeachable.
