Interesting tidbit on the 11th Hour with Brian Williams tonight,

[Stonepounder]

showing the huge difference between 'then' and 'now'.

At the height of the Vietnam War protests there was going to be a demonstration at the White House. The sons of a family living in the D.C. area were coming home to participate and asked of they could bring a couple of college friends with them. The boys parents welcomed the friends (and, or course, their sons) and saw them off to the protest, while daddy went off to work - at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. Daddy's name? Robert S. McNamara, chief architect of the war.

(I also heard on a couple of different shows tonight the idea that Trump is guilty of 'dereliction of duty', which in some people's opinion would be an impeachable offence.)

1. The day when Brian Williams calls him "Orange Shitgibbon"...

THAT'LL be the day I'M talking about!

2. Good! Everyone's talking about Benedict Donald

"Instead of mobilizing forces to our nation’s aid, the president, like Benedict Arnold at West Point, has allowed our defenses to crumble."

” We cannot trust the president, not because of what he may or may not have done in secret in the past, but because of what he is clearly doing or, rather, not doing, right now: defending our country against foreign enemies."

[MrModerate]

5. Ask yourself whether Trump is fulfilling his oath to "protect and defend the Constitution." n/t

6. That was his first lie!

swearing to protect and defend.

[FiveGoodMen]

9. Before THAT lie, there was "only I can solve this problem"

7. O'Donnell pointed out their chant was the same as

protestors outside the WH protesting against the VN war in 1968 used: "hey, hey LBJ, how many kids did you kill today?" Except the students substitued NRA for LBJ.

8. "hey, hey Donald J, how many kids did you kill today?" works too !
