Up Schiff’s Creek Without a Paddle

Schadenfreude is pleasure derived from someone else’s misfortune. Not wishing such on anyone, but instead enjoying a smile or a laugh when karma returns to bite someone on the rear end.

Today schadenfreude is in the midwinter air, blowing briskly over hapless Congressman Adam Schiff, a frequent flier on Sunday talk shows and cable news interviews. As the ranking member of the House Select Intelligence Committee, he is in the thick of the recently released memos revealing how Hillary Clinton bought her way under the tent of the Trump campaign via the Obama justice and intelligence agencies.

Congressman Schiff was punked by a couple of Russian radio comedians last year, with the story recently coming to light. Schiff was called by “Vovan” and “Lexus,” promising compromising dirt on Donald Trump, “including nude photos of the president and a Russian reality show star.”

Great stuff to fan the flames of impeachment. Or at least cripple the presidency.

Schiff, of course, assures everyone that from the get go, he knew the call was bogus. Oh really?

Then why take the call? An important politician like Schiff is busy. Or should be. Between interviews on CNN and MSNBC, he hardly has time for a bathroom break. Yet he had time for this “eight-minute conversation.” Fat chance you or I could get our local representative on the phone at all, much less for eight minutes.

Then just as anyone else participating in a prank call would not do, “Schiff appeared to be taking notes on the conversation and repeatedly asked for spellings of names and documentation he could send to the FBI.” Quite an effort if he knew the call was bogus.

He got his bathroom breaks during closed-door sessions.

He was calling CNN to blab about what was going on inside while he was tapping his toes in the mens room stall

>> Adam Schiff, a frequent flier

I honestly misread this as I skimmed through. I thought it said “frequent liar”.

Either way.....

Just remember this:

All Liberals lie!

They can't help it.

It comes natural to them

Adam Schiff is a liberal, do I have to say more?
