Here is the quote in question, posted 26 minutes before the above post:

Just 26 minutes and **RTFirefly** ’s “safely” transmutes into “legally” in your brain?  
Wow. That makes you even stupider than I already thought you were, a tough bar indeed.

Did anyone bookmarked the _Stupidest Doper_ thread? I assume **Steophan** was nominated.

I’m sure there’s no chance that she’s failing to do that, but instead talking about the supposed threats publicly. It’s not like she has history of that or anything.

You really are a disingenuous asshole. You fool no-one and every post you make is further proof. I’d ask if you had any capacity for shame, but that would prove to be a waste of time.

Let’s just remember, \*\*Steophan \*\*loves to derail ATMB misogyny threads. To the extent he has to be [told to stop posting in them](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=21354174&postcount=54).

At least this time he didn’t make it all about his poor mutilated dick.

“… slightly right of centre overall, which in US terms makes me close to Sanders”? 😃 I love how every radical lunatic considers themselves ever-so-reasonable and moderate. I haven’t followed your posts closely, but no. From what I’ve seen you’re hard-right on everything. Something like a Nazi authoritarian, I’d say. One thing I recall is your spirited defense of police shootings. If the guy doing the shooting is wearing a uniform, he’s always right, was the basic message. (Actually, even if he’s not wearing a uniform, as I note your defense of Zimmerman in this very thread – I guess it’s OK if the person being shot is black.) Not really a Sanders position, I must say, but one that Nazis would approve.

Perhaps we have all lost the phone number for the Democratic FBI and the DNC Law Enforcement Unit. Do you have them handy?

Yes it’s call congress. They have subpoena power. They have a forum. Nancy Pelosi holds the gavel.

Congress can launch investigations on its own authority, including investigations in anticipation of impeachment.

People on this board claimed they would be howling mad if congress did not commence that investigation as soon as the Democrats took congress. Well, they’ve got congress and they haven’t tried to investigate anything.

This is factually false, by the way. The House Judiciary Committee has in fact begun to look into Kavanaugh. Hopefully they will continue after impeachment.

And of course you have a cite to them investigating the sexual assault allegations by Ford?
