As a democratic socialist -who voted for socialists not Donald Trump- I fail to see how routine diplomatic contact with Russian officials is any more sinister than contact with the leaders of Zionist Israel or the ruling class of Dark Age Saudi Arabia.
The Hillary Democrats -more and more estranged from the American working class - sound like a bunch of war mongering, neo-con, ( Tea Party mentality ?) zealots.
Just WHO is bloodthirsty for WAR in the USA with nuclear power Russia ? Is Putin's capitalist oligarchy morally inferior to our own plutocracy ?
Three cheers for our " military industrial complex " - coming from the mouths of " liberal" Democrats ?

He has GOT to go, IMMEDIATELY. The American people do not put their justice system into the hands of a proven liar. In fact, the whole stinking, rotten, lying Trump administration needs to be removed. We are well beyond simple disagreement and deeply into treasonous behavior by the lot of them.

The American justice system is effectively in the hands of the American plutocracy ,its wealthy ruling class servants. Not much different from "justice " in Putin's post-communist Russia.
Remember Cold War McCarthyism ? Back then in IF Stone's " Haunted Fifties " NONE DARE CALL IT TREASON " was aimed at liberal Democrats.

Oh for cryin' out loud. If an 8 year old offered his/her parents the same dissembling nonsense about spilled milk, a broken window, or money missing from Grandma's pocketbook, it would mean, in less intelligent times, a trip to the woodshed. If a bunch of friends did the same, in the same 2-3 month period, wouldn't it prudent parents get together and have a chat about what their kids were talking about on the playground? I hope this metaphor hasn't been stretched too far.

Bless his heart, this old boy's got about as much integrity as Jimmy Swaggart. Now you run along, Jeff Davis.

You may have spoken those words too soon. I don't think it was Session's ethic. I think he's clueless about what an AG does, which is represent the country and speak with integrity and precision. More is unfolding as day turns to night.

Recusing himself is just a sop to keep quiet those who are demanding his removal. If you think that Sessions won't be meddling behind the scenes, I've got a bridge you might be interested in buying...
