"How come nobody told these stupid motherf#ckers I singlehandedly took down a president?"

[EffieBlack]

[dchill]

1. Oh, they know.

[JDC]

8. Indeed

[Marcuse]

39. He took down a Republican who was re-elected by a real landslide.

[StarfishSaver]

2. ROFL!

(I think I just wet my pants)

[MustLoveBeagles]

3. Ha!

[Me.]

4. Good One

They belong to the ignorant is bliss club

[Leghorn21]

5. You better fkn believe it!!!

Well done, well DONE, EffieB!!

[sheshe2]

6. Drop the Mic!

[The_jackalope]

7. BOOM!

[emmaverybo]

9. Love it. Right. Formidable guy with a seemingly low-keyed personality and no airs. When it

came down to it though, he could use the mild offhand manner to make a fool of Gaetz. What a contrast between dimwit bloviating and dry-wit winning.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

10. They know.

That's why numpties like Gaetz and Jordan were trying to take him on. But because they are stupid they didn't lay a glove on him. They are afraid of witnesses like McGahn who could do the same thing to Trump.

[babylonsister]

11. Perfect! nt

[greatauntoftriplets]

12. How quaint, a Republican with a conscience.

[mopinko]

13. a republican who is an expert in conscience.

wrote a very interesting book about authoritarians and their followers.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

14. Love him so much....but bad move having him there imho.

[SunSeeker]

26. Mueller should have been there. nt

[Laura PourMeADrink]

27. YES!!! I only had time to catch a snippet..but he was

shown as disbarred and had made predictions on TV gig that didn't come to pass. Not a good start with him. And I actually admire and like him.

[JustAnotherGen]

33. I liked hearing the GOP

Repeat all of the names he's called MF45. Fucking cry babies.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

34. Why would you lead with someone who

Was such an easy target? Maybe we should be glad the major news orgs didn't broadcast.

[Marie Marie]

15. John Dean conducted himself like a professional and a gentleman.

The Republicans came across like buffoons trying to appear tough and smart. They failed miserably but I'm sure their base loved it. That is what is so sad.

[Baitball Blogger]

16. John Dean is a reminder of the intelligence that once was common in

government and politics

[Marie Marie]

17. My point exactly and that is what is so sad.

[calimary]

28. No kidding.

[pazzyanne]

35. Watched the entire hearing and I agree whole heartedly.

What we saw was the Freedom Caucus in all their stupidity. John Dean did a great job of holding his own and keeping things on track. He did the job he was brought into the committee to do: comparing the impeachment of Richard Nixon and what is happening with Donald tRump today.

[NastyRiffraff]

18. Good one!

To be fair, Louie "The Stupid" Gohmert seems to think that Dean ordered the Watergate break-in.

[certainot]

19. the republicans are playing to a 'deep state coup' premise sold for the last 2 years on 1500 radio

stations, led by limbaugh.

whether fed to him by rw think tanks, trump lawyers, or the kremlin, that's why these dipshits are enabled to keep doing this shit. whether they believe it or not they and or their staff are reading the limbaugh show transcripts or synopses of them, or getting it from fox, and it's all made possible because there is no real time challenge to limbaugh and sons' constant coordinated ubiquitous repeated lying to 50 million a week.

when republican politicians repeat the bullshit they know and feel all that unchallenged repetition in their sails. their only and unique advantage will collapse when democrats stop ignoring rw radio.

[Ligyron]

22. Right once again.

You're always right.

Contact those Universities people.

[certainot]

29. these unis need to be protested until they stop fucking their students to death

thanks for support.

that's not an exaggeration - people paid to deny global warming are killing us all

i think it's going to take groups of people to get their attention - groups of anyone, students or not.

[enough]

20. Dean did not take down Nixon singlehandedly, and he would not say he did.

If there was any one singlehanded, it was Alexander Butterfield.

[TimeToGo]

24. Yes, not singlehandedly

Tremendously important, but there were lots of other people involved. I mean, I get the joke, but . . .

[TruckFump]

21. He's 80 and ran circles around those years younger than him.

Well, of course, those that Dean out-smarted and out-ran, did have a handicap...note the Rs after their names!

Way to go, John Dean!

[Ligyron]

23. He always has a nice looking blonde lady behind him too.

[LiberalFighter]

25. On Rachel I think, a lady from Watergate pointed out that John Dean

was like a computer before they had computers. Everything Dean provided was confirmed and it happened before they knew there were tapes. And when the tapes came out it just confirmed everything.

[DeminPennswoods]

36. Jill Wine-Banks

When Dean flipped, he had to give his information from memory. Once Jaworski got the tapes, they confirmed everything Dean had told them.

[onetexan]

42. Wow, guy must've had a photographic memory

[DeminPennswoods]

43. That's what Jill Wine-Banks said

when she was talking about Dean awhile ago on another MSNBC show.

[TrollBuster9090]

30. Now, just watch the wingnut Republicans on the committee call G. Gordon Liddy as a witness. nt

[Captain Zero]

31. I have wondered

If one purpose in bringing John Dean out is to show the GOP and their people that just even ONE of them (with the inside information) is capable of bringing a halt to this criminal presidency. Maybe a bunch of them will all get it at once.

[Gothmog]

32. Way to go Effie

[a kennedy]

37. I am confused....did he spend ANY time in jail????

Heard yes and no he didn’t. Thanks.

[StarfishSaver]

38. He was sentenced to four months, but didn't serve it in prison

40. Go, John Dean! Glad to have you on our side. (nt)

41. Thank you!
