I was only looking to show the still of this encounter but I found the whole 45 second video headed with a term I had not heard before &#8211; &#8220;motorboarding.&#8221; I don&#8217;t think anyone should stick their nose in anyone&#8217;s bosom even a man&#8217;s.

He&#8217;s being described as the best friend Congressional Democrats can hope for from a Republican. Maybe Pete&#8217;s been motorboated by the President too.<\/p>\n<p>The editorial cartoon that ran with the generous Stauber appraisal showed the Democrats about to blow up a voter casting a vote for Donald Trump. The message? Democrats are undermining our Democracy. Well, Republican redistricting and vote suppression and the Supreme Court&#8217;s unleashing of vast accumulations of untraceable corporate money into the veins of political campaigns in collusion with Russian Internet trolls might argue that our democracy is being threatened from a pincer movement by both parties. But that&#8217;s OK. Pete Stauber voted with Dems 13% of the time in Congress.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Impeachment hearings keep reminding me of Rudy Guilani in drag with a dapper and younger Donald Trump.
