personally (I think?) - which makes his statement all the more powerful -

(130,972 posts)4. Yes indeed,
and while I've thought she might do the right thing, such an admonition should carry weight.

So what the hell was he doing being part of the Shrub administration?

personally trying to profit from it. they didn't take Iraq's oil. but Trump is trying or wants to do it now which is why he sent kushner there.

(13,524 posts)6. Smart and soooo articulate - he's not playing around, is he? When I first saw him on - I guess it
was MSNBC - I thought, oh cheeze, a Bush SOB, so what manner of crap is THIS guy gonna be spewing? - at which point he proceeded to knock my socks off.
So when Mr. Painter speaks, I stop what I'm doing and listen UP!!

It's been sickening to watch this happen to one person after another. It has to stop.
