Roger Stone Guilty

[Wingnut]

@The Ghost

Once-Ler has to be Once-Ler and I selfishly wear NeverTrump pr1ck as a badge, but regret 3 years of back and forth insults, and I'll grudgingly admit an admiration for your tenacity, style, and humor in defending Trump.  My whiskey bottle is nearly dry.  Go away now.

You gotta be you.
I wandered around and finally found, that somebody who
Could make me be true ...Could make me feel blue
It had to be you.
Let me have a pull on that whisky Bottle.

It doesn't matter that the cnviction derives from Mueller's 16 democrat lawyers

You seriously believe that Gateway Pundit nonsense? Come on. You should be better than that.

Stone put up ZERO defense in this past trial. He's going to play this martyr line as long as he can.

Pffft. Process charge. Lying to Congress to boot, not even a judge.

Pure political vindictivness, and I can't even stand Stone.

I have nothing against him, and I have nothing "for" him.   But it's a crystal clear indication of the two-tier justice system we have in America right now....  that several associates of Trump's are behind bars for process crimes and trivial (by comparison) charges.... while Democrats that have committed real crimes against America skate comfortably behind their gated mansion doors.

Meanwhile.... Barr keeps the IG report under wraps still, until "after" Trump is impeached (my conspiracy theory).   That Liberty tree is getting awfully thirsty.

You forget about the other charges -- obstruction and witness intimidation included. There are more charges than lying to Congress.  And while  l'm not an expert on the law, I believe lying to congress is a criminal offense.

Apparently, the jury saw this case as criminal wrongdoing, not a witch hunt or political vendetta as so many claim.  But as I said before, Stone does have the option of appealing if he and his counsel believe there was anything wrong with the trial.

But apparently..."only" if you are not a Trump-hating Democrat.   Clapper, Brennan, Comey, Holder, and many other Democrats have lied to Congress with no consequences.   But heaven help you if you're an associate of Donald Trump's that gets caught up in the witch hunt coup.

You can roll eyes (Schiff eyes...lolol)  at the truth all you want to... but it doesn't change or alter the truth.

Whatever Comey, et al may or may have done has no bearing on this case, but here's a  thought:  For some time Republicans controlled the presidency and both houses of congress.  If there was anything to prosecute, why weren't a least some of these individuals prosecuted at that time?

And maybe you ought to ask Trump why he didn't have Hillary prosecuted as he promised.

You know the answer to that as well as I do.  Or... you 'should' know.   Because the deep state has morphed into a very powerful, too powerful, entity in America (duh).   Trump probably was informed that the DOJ would never go after Hillary.  That would be the very definition of a GOP wet dream.

Further to that, Comey skating for lying to Congress has everything to do with the subject at hand... which is Democrats skating for lying to Congress while anyone 'else' gets nailed.  FFS... this is logic, not rocket science.

[Chosen Daughter]

Really?  How does Mr. Kirk know that?  Does he know the identity of every juror and if so, did he determine each juror's voting registration?

If it was the case with the jurors then his lawyers didn't do well selecting the jury.

And why he honored her and Bill at inauguration lunch?  Why he said she had suffered enough?

An excuse for everything. The "deep state" made him do it... Or it could be Hillary was Trump's dog whistle for his voters and he never had any intention of doing what he told them. That's what carnival barkers do to get the goods. Work up the emotions to get what you want. It is the "art of the deal" and all.

President Trump decided that the root cause of corruption was Hunter Biden.  First we make Ukraine safe...then we can start going after corruption in America.

Assuming there hasn't been the typical shenanigans like with the Flynn case.

[Wingnut]

Pardon Stone.  Then the story goes away. 

[Sighlass]

Birds of a feather flock together... and "Stone" ain't exactly a name of a bird I would consider flight worthy after all the crap he has done over the years. He must expect a pardon in the end.

Once again, it's never Trump's fault if a promise is not fulfilled.  Today, it's the so-called deep state.  Or it's the Democrats' fault.  Or the Bushes or the Clintons.  Or [insert name here].

Bottom line is that this is another in a long string of promises your hero has failed to fulfill.  How much longer are you going to excuse him?

President Trump knows that the corruption surrounding the Ukraine and the loss of billions of dollars took place during the last administration.  That corruption has slowly been uncovered. However, as usual the MSM, the DEMS and RINO's point the finger at Trump just as they did with Russia.  That's how they roll; accuse and point fingers to divert attention from the corruption of themselves.

Pretty hard to expect the DOJ to go after Hillary when those within the DOJ are corrupt.  She's well insulated against any wrong doing and will never be held responsible. Those involved wanted her as president so that she could continue the destruction of our Republic.  That is why they must take down Trump so that he cannot succeed in uncovering the massive corruption that goes beyond our borders.

[catfish1957]

I have a feeling Roger Stone is going to fit in just fine at his new digs in the Big House......

My hero?   What an asininely stupid thing to say.   Anyone here that is fair-minded knows that is not the case.   But not you.

Also, what I stated about the deep state is factual, logical and truthful.   So sad that those concepts, plus reality, are things that you can't seem to get next to.   Your problem, not mine.
