STEAM COMING OUT OF MY EARS!!!!Repubs are confusing the issue
on request for RNC emails. Insisting that DNC emails be included "for balance." They're going to try to twist this up to make it difficult to reach a majority vote to get the RNC emails. Issa of CA on now.

3. The Rethugs are presenting it as a "balance" issue--concerning Presidential

records. They're elaborately ignoring the fact that this ISN'T a fishing expedition, but that there's ample evidence that the law has been broken, and that the RNC emails are germane to that.

5. This is what they do.. they confuse and obfuscate oh yeah.. and lie
The Republicons are being backed into a corner.. expect more smoke and darkness.. more lies.. more spin.. more bait and swtch more more more... it is getting ugly and will get even uglier. The Republicons do not want to lose the power they have stolen so painstakingly over the years.

INVESTIGATE IMPEACH INDICT IMPRECATE INCARCERATE :banghead:

6. Gee, what a shock
Not!

That's what Republicans tend to do in such situations. If you think the steam is coming out of your ears now, wait until this talking point enters the right-wing media echo chamber. The din could prove deafening.

9. Yeah, and the Dems need to call them on it. This is BULLSHIT.
And they need to say so.

The Dems haven't been accused of violating the Presidential Records Act. The GOP has.

The Dems need to keep the focus on the GOP, and they should be smart enough to know that the GOP is going to pull out all the stops now. They know they are cornered, and the Dems are closing in on them day by day. Desperation is ugly, and it has no morals or ethics. The Dems need to be ready to smack the GOP down in an instant.

11. {Yawn} Same thing happens when a cop pulls over a speeder
Suddenly, the guy pulled over is able to spot missing tail-lights, people going faster than him, unsafe lane changes. The cop isn't impressed and keeps writing the ticket.
