We are going to get revenge!

[SavannahMann]

Several times I’ve explained how we got into this current mess of the absolute hatred between the parties. But to recap. When Clinton was impeached it began. It quickly escalated to no longer being enough to win at the ballot box. Now it was necessary to destroy your opponent. The other side became the enemy.

Now with Steve Bannon being charged with Contempt the Republicans are outraged. This has never happened before. And are promising revenge.

Contempt of Congress goes back to the original founders of the nation.

Left. Right. Listen up. The other side is not the enemy. They are your fellow citizens. They are Americans. Period. Get over it and start learning how to talk to each other.

Susan McDougal was held in contempt and jailed over White Water investigation by the GOP. I see no tears for her in your cryfest.

I have no problem with people who refuse to testify or avail themselves of the Fifth being found in contempt. My objection is the threat to get even. That is childish and stupid.

When Clinton was impeached it began.

Actually, it began with Nixon and Watergate. The Clinton impeachment was payback for that.

Bannon was called by Congress and refused, he deserves to be jailed according to you.

Clinton was impeached with the idea he usurped the Reaganites.

The GOP was happy to have a criminal president in office.

These are not new rules. 1812 was the first time.

IMO that was covered in his remarks about Clinton. He didn't need to write a text book to make his point.

Where I disagree is the fact that many more should have faced legal consequences that have not.
