When Barr so totally misrepresented the Mueller Report, starkly lying about it, he lost any benefit of the doubt as to "honor". I was with two lawyers in DC last night who know Barr, know his law firm, and think he's a very smart guy, very hard-nosed, sharp elbowed, corporate advocate, like the style of his law firm, but also unethical as is his firm more generally. Very willing to cross the line ethically as advocates. These were not "liberal" lawyers. They believe he's in it for the power.
Now, I'm sure one could suggest similarly of Pelosi, certainly she's been a target for decades.
But for Barr, he simply doesn't deserve the notion that he's "honourable".
You are perhaps over-reading my post; I am not suggesting anything. I may point out some odd (to me) thoughts, but I have yet to see an Internet argument change an opinion or mind. Mostly, I chuckle at these posts (which might be the problem, as most seem to be very seriously intended).
A great maxim for life is pain + reflection = progress.
As the world's leading light on fu#king up, I read those words to myself 200x a day on my iPhone home screen (it's my home screen, duh). A reminder to my Democrat friends that 2016 hopefully taught you/us something, and yet I see Elizabeth Warren now pulling away from the pack (divisive, super-progressive, dishonest, not genuine...ring a bell?).
Meanwhile, Orange Man Bad is our preferred meal. smdh
Anyway, I'd like to end by saying what I often say when things get too tense, none of this really matters anyway, but then I might really get the catcalls!
