Seems that Democrats claimed that Bill Clinton was being "lynched" during his impreachment.  But that all changes when Donald Trump says the "L" word.  Then some Black represenative says that yes, he used that term with regard to Clinton, but that he was allowed to invoke it because it was his ancestors who were lynched, but since "we all know" that Donald Trump is a racist anyway, he can't use the word to describe what is happening to him.  So it's okay to say lynched if you are a black democrat and it's your party being done unto, but not if you are a white republican who is being done unto.  Nothing like a double standard with double talk.  

You know, the more I think about the Ukraine situation, I'm not so sure that we haven't done this before.  I can remember times when a country's security assistance was suspended or delayed to put pressure on them to do what we wished.  And what about all the times we've given security assistance to prop us a leader that we were using for other reasons, only to cut them off.  I know for a fact that this was done to El Salvador and Honduras that we were using to support one side in the civil war in El Salvador.  And when that was over, so was their assistance (it was cut back so significantly it was shocking to them).  And I remember when Jordon got cut off (but I can't remember why).  Now they are saying that it was because he was using it for political gain....The world of national security and who we provide assistance to and when/if they get cut off has never been so clear cut, and if someone didn't gain personally from it, it doesn't mean that there wasn't another motive behind it.  

It appears that there are a lot of Ukraine sympathizers, which is not all that unusual for people, like Bill Taylor - we used to call it "going native".
