#1 The worthless SOB can't seem to get behind the Speaker and the party. Did Maverick come to him in a dream ?

#2 It's Joe you need to question. Even if you know he'll plead the 5th or play dumb it'll make him look terrible to voters.

#3 What on earth is his reasoning?
Does he have his own Ukrainian slush?

#4 ^I'll take Does he have his own Ukrainian slush? for 100 NIS.

#5 Compel?

..cause you don't want to be compared to an Arkansas divorce judge with the success you'll have?

#6 One might be almost tempted to think that Lindsey has some Ukraine investments.

#7 The path goes _through_ Ukraine, but it doesn't stop there. IMHO if you were on Burisma's payroll you were on Putin's. And the Obama Administration was way too protective of a corporation set up by Putin's cronies when they were in power.

#8 And now we find out that Graham is being protective of Burisma too.

#11 If I understand correctly, the Republican party here in SC has canceled our primary...which means no challenger for Lindsey. I would happily vote for any primary challenger. But NEVER for a Democrat to replace him (No Doug Jones in SC!)...so he is safe for another 6 years.

#12 Having gone from naive trusting youth to cynical curmudgeon in only a few short years, I'm skeptical. Maybe Lindsey is a typical congressional weasel, maybe he is playing good cop/bad cop: Gentlemen, let's not get bogged down calling witnesses. Let us quickly bring this circus to its inevitable conclusion.

The Dems buy this because the last thing they want is Bidens of any flavor in the witness stand. The 'Pubs go for it because they can do a full Ukraine investigation later.

Or he may just be a weasel.
