I wonder if they even realize or care the danger they are placing this nation in?
I wonder if they even realize or care how foolish they make America look to the rest of the world?
Its one thing to have posters on this thread bicker back in forth but quite another when its elected officials.
Be afraid, be very afraid

I doubt if you saw or heard the hearings, but I was happy at The opening remarks by the co chairman.
Hope I am not reading too much into it, but it was clear that they knew coming into a PUBLIC HEARING at their request.....both witnesses did NOT want to attend and said so. The sub comm requested this public session to at least INFORM Americans where things stood to avoid confusion, which because nobody else was talking was the norm.
Anyway, opening remarks were pretty clear that while the entire group stood shoulder to shoulder to find the truth, they are from two different parties. It was said, it will appear, and it did, as if we are split, but be assured that is not the case.
Republicans carried the torch as requested by Trump, i.e., leaks and almost all their questions were aimed that way. Democrats came from the possible collusion itch the Trump campaign and Russia.
Neither side, nor the witnesses, had any hesitation in knowing "in a unclassified setting" that Russia did attempt to sway the election. That was 100% agreed on, and some questions were aimed at the manner and methods used.
This hearing, in my opinion, gave me confidence that they will get to the truth.
If you are hard left or hard right, you probably are unhappy.with the tone of the other sides questioning, but that is why you have to read and put it all in context.
Politics need not be so polarizing, but you need to debate with facts, not Twitter or any other form of limited conversation.
They knew there was differing viewpoints and I believe they allowed for that.
Sometimes we say it is too political, but in fact it is not them, it is that we only hear what we want.
