Yes, I cleverly changed the subject by going to the links you provided, reading the articles you presented as proof of whatever claim you were attempting to make, and then addressing the specifics of each in turn, because after that exercise I'm like

Also, wesw, it's no one's job here to sift through your gibberish in order to go off on an interwebz scavenger hunt in search of the materials you claim support whatever weird-ass theory you're trying to peddle here. If you think you have some sort of point to make, make it yourself in some reasonably understandable form (preferably in actual sentences). Otherwise, I recommend you consult a neurologist pronto because there appears to be some sort of tumor in your brainpan.

I believe they shot that scene in the actual Texas state capitol building in Austin.  I have to admit that back in the days before YouTube I bought a VHS copy of that movie just to be able to view that song and dance sequence any time I wanted to.

Also, the interstitial remarks by the reporters trying to get a comment — "What the hell did he say?" "Same as usual — nothing!"; "I hear him talking, but he's not comin' in", "Was that a yes or a no?" "It's a possible maybe..!" — were almost as good as the song and dance routine.

And did you notice that Trumpian-like move at the 1:45 mark (when Durning sings the line about how he will "continue to stand tall") as he smoothly but firmly edged the aide who dared to stand higher than he did down the stairs a couple of steps?

I think I'll start responding to wes' diversion threads with some of the latest Impeachment news:
Republican Support for Trump's Impeachment Rises to 18 Percent, Poll Shows

Republican voters' support for removing President Donald Trump from office is rising amid the impeachment inquiry that has escalated in recent months.

Americans continue to be split —49 percent to 47 percent—over whether Trump should be impeached and removed from office, according to an ABC News/Washington Post poll released Friday.

However, 18 percent of GOP respondents indicated they want Trump removed from office by impeachment, a number that has increased in recent weeks from single digits. Eighty-two percent of Democrats and 47 percent of Independents said they, too, back such a move.

Among Republicans surveyed in the Friday poll, 74 percent support Trump against the Democratic-led inquiry — down from 87 percent in July — and a notable 18 percent of such respondents voiced support for impeaching the GOP president. A not insignificant number of GOP surveyors also took issue with Trump involving his personal attorney Rudy Giuliani in his plot to pressure Ukraine into targeting former Vice President Joe Biden, as 32 percent of Republicans said Giuliani’s role in the scandal was inappropriate.

The increased support for Trump's removal from office and his declined approval rating among Republicans comes at a time when the House's impeachment inquiry will wrap-up its closed-door proceedings to focus on public hearings. The proceedings have featured a steady drip of damning information from witnesses over the course of the past month about the Ukraine controversy.
https://www.newsweek.com/republican-sup ... ws-1469234

If the public hearings can get that number of Republicans supporting his removal up from about one in five to one in three, we can wave bye bye to him as he takes that last helicopter ride off the White House lawn... :ok

yu0 can make it ab0ut me, and jim will make it ab0ut trump, but the truth is that this thread was started t p0int 0ut the many public c0rrupti0in charges and c0nvicti0ns happening, all ar0und the c0untry, and the lack 0f press that th0se cases are getting.

I remember when such things were rep0rted and c0nsidered big news.

n0 ne seems willing t0 have a c0nversati0n ab0ut this, 0r even seems t0 find it imp0rtant 0r unusual at all.

I d0n t kn0w why I b0ther 0ther than my altruistic ideals.....

Just to humor you, wes, I DID Google "Buffalo City Hall Raid".  I looked at the first result — a story on the website of the ABC-TV affiliate in Buffalo (http://www.wkbw.com) — and found the following information:
  • ●  A spokesperson from the FBI tells [WKBW] the FBI is conducting "court authorized activity."  The extent of that court order is unclear.
    ●  The day-long raid centered around Room 315.  The Mayor’s Office of Strategic Planning includes two agencies, Buffalo Urban Development Corporation and Buffalo Urban Renewal Agency (BURA).
    ●  Authorities are not saying what the extent of the court order is or who it may have targeted.  However, an FBI spokesperson did tell [WKBW] the focus of court-ordered raid is City Hall and there were no other raids.
    ●  The FBI would not comment on what its agents are looking for or who they're looking at.
    ●  Michael DeGeorge, spokesperson for Buffalo Mayor Byron Brown, released the following statement:  "Our understanding is that court-authorized activity has taken place at a BURA office.  At this time we have no further information."
Yet somehow (through clairvoyance, maybe?) you have managed to absolutely determine that this is corruption in the Buffalo city government and have taken these gossamer threads to try to weave a dragnet.

yes, the FBI, HUD, the IRS and the 0ffice 0f the Inspect0r general were inv0lved in the raid as well.....

0ne raid here 0r there isn t unusual, but this is happening everywhere, everyday, alm0st, here lately.

I m n0t bullshitting y0u.

an unusual am0unt 0f c0rruptin cases are being made.

a shitl0ad, if y0u will.

they ain t there, in city hall, t0 hand 0ut attab0ys, I can tell y0u that.
