IMPEACHABLE TWEETS
While George H. W. Bush was being mourned today, the current occupant tweeted something that could be interpreted as an impeachable offense. By Diaper Don publicly expressing sympathy for Paul Manafort, calling Michael Cohen a liar and saying that Roger Stone was just fine with not testifying against him, he has publicly put on display obstruction of justice.
When you comment on an ongoing investigation on cases, comment on sentencing, are you not witness tampering?
The gutless Congress better get on the stick and act on this criminal activity.
Count 4 Article 1 passed against Richard Nixon should be put up against Diaper because he is impeding an investigation by the Justice Department.
The difference is this Congress is an enabler of high crimes and misdemeanors.

SERVICE DOG TAKES WATCH OVER  THE MASTER ONE LAST TIME

The yellow Labrador retriever appeared woebegone, his head slack over his front left paw, his muzzle resting on the ground. Yet he was also steadfast, still keeping watch over George H.W. Bush, the 41st president, who died Friday at his home in Houston.
After accompanying the statesman and World War II veteran in the final months of his life, Sully, the late president’s service dog, lay before the casket holding what remained of him.
The display of instinctual, animalistic devotion captured the reaction to Bush’s death in a way that the words spilled all weekend over the Internet could not. Dogs, wrote the poet Emily Dickinson, “know but do not tell.”
In his knowing pose, the dog was at rest. He will accompany his person a final time, as Bush’s body is flown from Houston to Washington, CNN reported. An arrival ceremony is expected Monday at the Capitol, where Bush will lie in state in the Capitol Rotunda until Wednesday, when family members and friends will gather for a funeral at Washington National Cathedral.


WHERE’S DAN?

Ever since George H.W. Bush passed away, numerous officials from the Bush administration have been on TV giving their thoughts on the late President.
Conspicuously missing from CNN and MSNBC is 41’s Vice President Dan Quayle. Quayle was a two term Senator from Indiana who was plucked from relative obscurity when Bush picked him. When the announcement was made that a two term Senator from Indiana was picked, I, like many assumed it was Dan Coates, not Dan Quayle.
When Lyndon Johnson died, Hubert Humphrey his Veep was all over the place on the three networks. When Richard Nixon died, his second Vice President and successor Gerald Ford was front and center. Since Ford’s Veep Nelson Rockefeller died before Ford, there was no Vice President to comment when Ford passed.. Of course when Ronald Reagan died in 2004, Bush 41 himself was on TV.
But unless I am wrong, I have not seen Quayle much.
He might show up at the Funeral as did Nixon first Vice President Spiro Agnew who by then was a convicted felon for over 2 decades. I hesitate to put Quayle in that category. Neither should the center left national media for not recognizing Quayle.
Quayle has been on Fox frequently since 41 died and wrote a piece for The Wall Street Journal. If he has exclusivity with Fox, fine. But the least the other two cable networks could have done is contact him to get his thoughts.
