In reply to the discussion: Republicans cooked their own goose with the Clintons testifying [View all]gfarber
(229 posts)9. Clinton Precedent
There once was a hearing so rough,
Where Congress cried, Enough is enough!
You dragged Bill through the mud,
So well return the good thud
Now Trump gets the cuffs and the huff.
The GOP smirked with delight,
Hauling Clintons in late every night.
But the Dems just laughed back,
Said, You scratched a big crack
Now its our turn to give you a bite.
Said Frost with a leer and a grin,
You opened the doorlet us in.
If you like it real raw,
With subpoenas and law,
Well call Don and the kids and the kin.
When Epstein got waved like a flag,
The whole damn thing started to sag.
You wanted the past? Just
Hope youre readybecause
Were subpoenaing everything you brag.
Therell be oaths, said the Dems, nice and tight,
No wiggle, no dodging, no flight.
You set the damn bed,
Now lie in it, they said,
And well watch while you squirm in the light.
So beware when you threaten with glee,
To drag ghosts in for all eyes to see:
If you tug on that thread,
Soon its your ass instead
Getting hauled in by precedentwhee!

Comer may be the dumbest Repub in Congress, and that's really saying something.

Wait wait wait. So a family of known law breakers is suddenly going to agree to appear from a subpoena that has no teeth

I can already hear it. The Democrats issue a subpoena to Trump, Trump says NO. Democrats say ok fine.
