In reply to the discussion: Garland lovers are still defending him. [View all]bigtree
(90,210 posts)58. oh, I read it.
...and I responded to it.
That's my thing. That's what I do, even in the face of people insisting that their own opinion shouldn't be broached by any disagreement.
If it's in my interest, I read and respond. It's not that hard for me.
Your equating of my presentation of these facts in dispute of your conjecture as, 'love' for the AG, is a curious thing to take comfort in. All I read in that is more derision.
That's a tell (not an argument), that you actually have no substantive points to make in defense of either your complaint, or against my rebuttal. Not hard to discern in the time it takes to read such a post.

Your irrational love for Garland is evidenced by how easily triggered you are.

I'm sorry that you feel you must do this. You removed yourself from the cool kids by not knowing when to quit.

For just one more time, I'd like to hear Garland say "No one is above the law."

It was deliberate. His best friend is the same person purchasing the Supreme Court.

I had that thought also when Biden selected her for VP. I wanted her for AG!

Who can say it would be different if a criminal was prosecuted and put in prison instead of running for president?

I think Garlands most ardent defender here is an actual Garland family member.
