If the ultimate victor in the Senate impeachment trial were based on hours of bloviating, the Dems would win in a Trumpian-style electoral blowout.

That score?  Dems 21,  GOP 12.

But like many things in life…less is more.

I sat thru virtually all of the GOP arguments…which unequivocally, systematically and fully destroyed the nonsensical and partisan impeachment articles on both a factual and Constitutional basis.

And speaking of compelling Constitutional arguments…I think I might have a man crush on Alan Dershowitz.

I feel strangely cleansed in admitting that.

And slaves to the “fair and balanced” moniker that we here at The Drunken Republican proudly share with Fox News…I reluctantly endured the House Democrat impeachment managers for several excruciating hours.

Or about as long as Michael Moore can stuff his pie hole before taking a breath. Continue reading →

Michael Jordan.  Magic Johnson.  Larry Bird.

No, I have NOT transitioned this to a hoops blog…just hang with me.

These three basketball greats were part of the original Olympic Dream Team in 1992 in Barcelona.  Old raisin heads like me…even with somewhat pickled brains…STILL remember this both fondly and vividly.

Fast forward to today’s Impeachment Olympics and those names have been replaced by Alan Dershowitz, Ken Starr, and Robert Ray.

These three brilliant legal minds have been added to President Trump’s already impressive legal Dream Team that will fight the impeach hoax, and know more about constitutional law than Michael Moore knows about saturated fat.

More importantly, though, they’re all regulars on the cable news circuit as legal experts, and thus quite comfortable in front of the camera. Continue reading →

Well, nervous Nancy inevitably caved, and finally crowbarred those contrived Impeachment Articles out of her Louis Vuitton support hose and delivered them to the Senate.

Who knows.

At this point…who really cares?

The fact that I even noticed her cleavage is personally disappointing…if not dreadfully concerning.

Anyway…the Holidays have come and gone, and people have moved on.  Normal people outside of NY, LA, and the DC swamp, that is.

A good guy with a gun takes down a bad guy with a gun.  And saves dozens of lives.

At least.

Or as Trump always likes to describe such a situation…”bullets going in the opposite direction.”

“How sweet it is!”…to quote the great Jackie Gleason.  Ya know…Ralph Kramden?  THE HONEYMOONERS!!!

OK, going back to the 50’s.  Eh…forget it.

Anyway…surely you heard the recent story of yet another church shooting…near Ft. Worth, Texas this time…some mental defective freakazoid starts shooting, and in like three nanoseconds, a dude in the congregation who is carrying and also happens to be a firearms instructor…uh, shall we say…ELIMINATES THE THREAT.

A high-brow way of saying he blew the guy’s effing brains out.

It warms the cockles of my heart.

What are cockles, anyway?  I have no idea…I just like saying cockles.
