Oh, Don't Fret, Lindsey

Cancel the smelling-salts, unclutch your pearls, and avoid your natural propensity to head for the nearest fainting couch.

The only reason you’re the least bit interested in how Roger Stone’s arrest was executed is your fear that you’re watching how your own downfall might play out.

Oh, and no need to worry about your treatment at the hands of arresting officers. Surely they’ll follow your “pResident’s” admonition to police about not protecting an arrestee’s head to keep it from bumping against the squad car. “You can take the hand away, okay?”

By the way, the reason a CNN film crew was on hand to film Stone’s arrest is due to their ability to connect the dots, and ascertain when and where such an event is about to happen. Your “pResident” calls that fake news – the rest of us recognize it as a devotion to real journalism. If you took your head out of Trump's ass once in a while, you'd already know why they were there.

I don’t know what the Russians have on you, Linds – but it must be something monumental to change your position from calling Trump a “kook” to kow-towing to his every whim. But I guess that’s why you’re so askeered of how traitors are dealt with – because you fear you’re next.

I’d advise that you keep a suitcase at-the-ready – ya know, just in case – packed with a toothbrush, a comb, and a change of jammies. You never know when your “time in the barrel” is at hand.

But then, I’m sure when you questioned what happened to Stone, you were merely “asking for a friend”.

Well put. Poor Lindsey might actually be seeing his downfall, all his screeching will not make things any better for him either legally nor with his owners.


Made me think of this song with that last paragraph!



Lyrics
Nobody's perfect
Not even a perfect stranger
But oh what a gal
She was such a perfect stranger
And you're the best in your field
In your office with your girls
And desk and leather chair
Thought that time was on your side
But now it's time the avenger
Nobody's permanent
Everything's on loan here
Even your wife and kids
Could be gone next year
And with what you have left
You'll be forever under pressure
To support her
And a lover who looks strangely
Like time the avenger
Time, time, hear the bells chime
Over the harbor and the city
Time, one more vodka and lime
To help paralyze that tiny little tick, tick, tick, tick
Nobody's perfect
Not even a perfect gent
When your property took the a train
I wonder where your manners went
You were standing at the station
In your briefcase
Was your aftershave and underwear
Can you hear the whistle blow?
Sounds like time the avenger
Time, time, hear the bells chime
Over the harbor and the city
Time to kill another bottle of wine
To help paralyze that tiny little tick, tick, tick, tick

He never seemed to care about the jack-booted arrests and seizures of the property of others. Did he express any concern about the seizure of children from their mothers' arms at the border?

He knows he is on Mueller's list. i love that he is worried.

point out the 180 degree turn by our dear Lindsey - and it all happened one day on a golf course.
Gotta' wonder who was hittin' the balls around..........

Roger says that all they needed to do was call and he would have surrendered willingly, but when you associated with a hate group that pledges violence, you get the 5AM armed wake up call.

or my FB post or it's just the Zeitgeist. Lindsey is up to his elbows in Russian bribe money along with other members of the GOP leadership. Graham is compromised, and he's worried about Mueller draining the swamp. They say Siberia in nice in the summer month.
