Forgive Me, Lord, But I’m Cheering For Jeff Sessions
I never, ever, in 400 dog years believed that I could ever say anything resembling kinda-nice about Jeff Sessions.
But, Damn, the rightwing has disowned that boy.
Jerry Falwell, Jr. and Gary Bauer are calling for Trump to fire sessions.
Junior
Jerry Falwell Jr., a top conservative religious leader, said Monday he urged President Donald Trump to fire Jeff Sessions over his handling of investigations into Russian election meddling, saying the attorney general has lost evangelicals’ support.
Okay, so Jeff Sessions has done one honorable thing in his whole pathetic life and now I know it’s honorable because Jerry Falwell, Jr. wants Session’s butt for it.
I have decided that the rightwing defends Trump so vigorously because they believe he’s going to bring about Armageddon. They might be right about that.
Sessions recusing himself is suddenly an issue with the Teabagelicals after 20 months? What’s their real ‘reason’? Maybe they’re upset that Sessions bungled their plot to kidnap and traffic brown babies while terrorizing families seeking asylum.
1I believe you’re right! I got to say, if it weren’t for the 1st Amendment, there would be bloody war along religious line right damn now.
2Jr. is as dull and insipid as his Father.
3“Will no one rid me of this turbulent AG?”
That would be the signal for four of Trump’s guys (Secret Service?) to shoot Sessions in his office. Henry II didn’t lose his throne over that, but he have to submit to being publicly flogged, which could be entertaining.
4Just goes to prove my thesis that Junior Falwell and his compadre are dumber that a sack of sledge hammers. My apologies to the sledge hammers.
5Bud, you vastly understate the case. The Hubs worked in Baptist circles in Virginia 1982 -1995. Brothah Jerreh was a member in good standing of Holy Hypocrites R Us. I never doubted the rumors of his extra-marital affairs. Then there were the shall we call them creative finances at his church and then when he was trying to get the college (now, gag, university) started. I think the word evil could be fairly applied.
6@ Bud & Maggie:
Foulsmell Jr. didn’t fall very far from the family tree.
7Ahh yes Jerry Falwell. I recognized the family’s foul stench the moment I opened the post. Aren’t they dead yet?
8No matter what he is still Jeff Sessions. Clear your head and read Coretta Scott King’s letter about this piece of ____
9Miss Juanita, you’re right about the Armegeddon plan. In a used book store in Belton, I ran across the book, Trumpocalypse: The End-Times President, a Battle Against the Global Elite, and the Countdown to Armageddon. It’s by Paul McGuire and Troy Anderson, authors of the (alleged) bestseller, the Babylon Code.
10Being a card-carrying member of one or more entities of the Global Elite, I purchased it to regale myself with when Rapture leaves me behind.
Those charlatans are nearly as bad for Christianity as the Roman Catholic child traffickers, Vatican Inc.

Imagine a parallel universe in which Coretta Scott King’s letter made no difference and Ernest J. ‘Ernie’ Keebler aka Jefferson Beauregard Sessions III is appointed to the Federal bench in Ala-damned-bama. Sessions would never have run for any elective office after 1986. 20 years of which he would not have been a Senator. Probably would have taken senior status by 2011 or 2012. Likely not AG currently.
I can’t help but think that he would have wreaked less havoc as a Federal judge than as a inexplicably powerful nacilbupeR Senator.
12Don’t underestimate the harm that a hard core segregationist anti-civil rights for blacks judge could do. Black people appearing in his court wouldn’t have a chance. Over the years he could have wrecked many families.
13Seriously doubt the Keebler Elf would have accepted a federal judicial bench. There aren’t enough pillows or phone books in the courthouse tor raise him up over the edge of the desk. He may “write” a book or rent himself out as part of the colorful pageantry of someone else’s race for office but thats about it.
14A couple of old sayings come to mind when contemplating old Jeff’s current situation:. 1. Marry in haste, repent at leisure. 2. Lay down with dogs and get up with fleas.
