Jimmy, Jimmy, Jimmy. You can't run from it, bud.

People don't much care for men in power who abuse. Or those who enable or cover for abusers. And make no mistake, Jimmy. Covering it up or ignoring it IS enabling. There's quite a good chance your picture will be among the offenders and enablers rogues gallery.















YOUR TIME's A-COMING, JIMMY BOY.

and if nothing else, you got something off your mind and directed to the correct source of your concern. Calling the other critter is a good idea too. I think I'll call mine - disgusting deplorable that he is.

It would have been pretty easy to claim he told his boss or that he thought his boss heard the same things he did, and that he believed his boss was responsible for handling it. Authoritarians, like GOPers/RWers, would give him a pass on those grounds.

.... reflex is to lie, lie, lie. Look at Trump. LIAR. Guilty people lie. Shoot, I did when I was a kid and got caught doing something I wasn't supposed to do, it is reflex. GUILTY. But, at least I learned....don't do stuff that leads to lying.

and his co-operatives faxed his birth announcements to Hawaii's newspaper for August 4, 1961.

but to reply to Mr. Corn--
these are the same deep state people who saw Barack Obama born in Kenya and had him flown to Hawaii so he could be seen as American nearly 50 years later and he could run for president.

Sure makes you wonder what these "deep state " folks are up to today that we won't know about for 20, 30, 40, 50 years or more down the pike.

He was looking down, shifting in his chair, was halting in is speech, and showed no confidence in what he was saying.
