The spiritual grotesqueness of the Democrats was on full display, that's for sure. Especially in Mazie Hirono's spew of venom, which, true to form, dod not allow for the Attorney General getting in a word edgewise.
The New York Times has an editorial about it this morning, calling the note Mueller sent to Barr about Barr's summary of the report - a note Barr characterized as "snotty" - an "extraordinary letter."
My tail end.
The letter doesn't even specify anything inherently objectionable about the way Barr proceeded (issuing a summary in advance of the report). The uneasiness Mueller expresses is over how the media would deal with the manner and pace of the release of the report.
An important thing to keep front and center is that everybody at the hearing had the full Mueller report in front of them, and it clearly states that no one involved with Trump's 2016 campaign collided with Russia to influence the election.
And so, regarding this business of obstruction of justice, how is anything being obstructed when the charge that had been investigated is now moot?
The bottom line in all of this is that Democrats absolutely cannot stand the fact that Donald Trump is president. It makes them jump out of their skins. It's constant torture to them.
I'm not unmitigatedly enthused about it myself. We could have had all the great policy moves and judicial appointments we've experienced without the shallowness, bombast and inconsistency.
But unless a president has done something plainly illegal, the recourse is to oust him at the ballot box next time.
And the Dems haven't the first clue as to why their huge field of clowns and totalitarians is sorely wanting in effectiveness for that task.
