Was Hunter Biden qualified to serve on the Board of a Ukraine gas Company?

But Schiff and every Democrat obviously does not and the reason they do not now when they said they would in the beginning is that now

The POTUS' admission makes the whistleblower superfluous.

the WB just might tell us that Schiff lied when he said he never meet the WB and has no idea who the WB is but it sure seems like he knows

The question is- Did Schiff meet with the whistleblower?

it was person #2 that Lt. Colonel Vindman spoke to about what he heard on that phone call. And it appears that Lt. Colonel Vindman is lying when he says he doesn't know who the WB is, Hell, he told the WB!!!!!

I don't remember Lt. Col. Vidman saying he doesn't know who the whistleblower is. He couldn't, or wouldn't, reveal the other person informed of the bribe.

However, under law he (or she) has the right to remain anonymous.



No, he doesn't and I think you admitted that already. Only the IG by law may not mention his name, the rest of America can and has





Donald Trump, as I stated in a different thread, is the most vindictive POTUS in my lifetime. He would make the whistle blower's life a living hell if he found out who he was.


Trump knows who the WB is. Everybody in America paying any attention to this knows who he is, his name is Eric Ciaramella and if Lt. Colonel Vindman had not been stopped by Schiff from naming person # 2 that Lt. Colonel Vindman went running to to tell what he heard on the phone call............

I'm sure you'll get the hang of this site. The quotes and color coding you use are making it difficult for me to distinguish what I write, from what you write.

A little background for you on myself. Until 2008 I had never voted for a Democrat for a federal office (House, Senate, or POTUS) in my rather long life. In 2008, with my 401k having lost about 25% of its value and retirement looming in the not too distant future, and with the Republicans offering a ticket of McCain and Palin, I decided to go with Obama. From a purely personal point of view, I chose wisely. Stock market rebounded and my 401k recovered. In 2012, again based on finances, I again went with Obama. In 2016 I thought both candidates sucked but Trump's lack of character cost him my vote. Originally Posted by SpeedRacerXXX

You want to compare 401k stories? How about this one. I worked for a relatively new Fortune 500 company after my division was spun off from a well know Fortune 500 company. We were the bell of the ball for a while and we all thought we would be retiring millionaires. I knew absolutely nothing about investing and the stock market so I broke the first rule of investing, diversify. I went 100% in my company stock and man was it paying off. Up to 120 a share and split. Back to 100 and split and again and again, I kept making an obscene amount of money. One day my 401k went up $30,000 in one freakin day!


Well, as the saying goes, all good things come to an end. At a high of about $800,000 things took a turn. Everybody said don't worry about it, let it ride, it will come back but it didn't. I'm embarrassed to admit how much I lost, lets just say most of it. The thing is, all that time it was going down and obviously not coming back, I just sat and watched and all I had to do was pick up the phone and tell them put the remainder of my money in a guaranteed interest like a CD but I didn't, I just kept watching it drop thinking it couldn't all disappear, that couldn't be possible but it was. It did manage to make a little come back but not a whole helluva lot.


The good news is, it was a very good paying job and I managed to save a bunch because the company was giving me stock and matching what I put in which truthfully wasn't all that much. I'll bet I didn't but more than $20,000 or so of my own money. More good news is that I retired with a nice pension, my savings over the years and now that I'm collecting SS on top of that, I ain't doing to bad for having lost a small fortune. I retired at 57.



Since I was in a union my entire career, a story for another day, I tended to vote Democrat until my eyes were opened and then 3rd party, Libertarian, anything but a Democrat or a Republican. Hell, I voted for Ross Perot!!!! Mitt Romney was the first Republican I voted for but I'm not a registered Republican so here in Florida, I can't vote in the Republican primary, I'm a registered Independent but obviously I lean right now. Trump was not my 1st or second choice for the Republican nomination but as we all know, my choice came down to Hillary or Trump since Johnson and Stein weren't even up for consideration. I didn't and still don't like Trump's personality. I wouldn't even want to be in the same room with the guy but policy wise I pretty much agree with him down the line. I wish there was some other Republican I could replace him with but there isn't and I won't be voting for any of these Democrats especially the Communist Sanders and the bat shit crazy Warren. Biden is a joke and and the rest of the field has to many problems to even get into.

Schiff allowed Lt. Colonel Vindman ( I'll continue to respect his rank since I served in the Navy ) to say the name of the first person he told, Kent. Only when it came to the second name did Schiff butt in and say he didn't want Lt. Colonel Vindman outing the WB to which Nunes correctly responded "how do you know he is going to name the WB if you have no idea the name of the WB"? If you didn't know the name of the WB, why let Lt. Colonel Vindman name Kent? Why not say, you can't name either person you told in order to safe quard the WB?

I don't really see why this would be confusing but I hope now that I have explained my way of writing and responding, there will be less confusion.

But if you wouldn't mind asking me the questions again in a more shall we say simpler format, I'd be happy to reply. I never purposely run from a question ever. It just seems like a lot of work to dig out what you want from post 171

If he didn't have a bias, would the complaint be more credible?

It's going to be a bit of a pain in the ass to bring up the issues again. I should be getting a laptop soon, the portability of my tablet now makes it easy to play around with. Not so much write and edit.

He still hasn't addressed my notes.

Agree - well written AH.

Do you think anybody gives a shit about your personal journey through purgatory, Captain America? It isn’t the journey, it’s the campfire yous are sitting around now. And that cross is burning brightly, wouldn’t you say?

It is enjoyable demonstrating how easy it is to cause 'Outrage" among the DPST ranks - the insecurity required "blankees' are standard issue for the party faithful!

That is all the DPST's have!
