        In the 1970s conservatives loved their country more than conservatism, and stood up to their President. Not so much today.

        Comey, Yates and Bharara were all fired for doing their jobs. Their boss, Jeff Sessions, committed felony perjury and faces no consequence.

        It is time for Republicans to demonstrate whether they have a shred of non-partisan patriotism left.

        You have to wonder, if the Trump WH is willing to take such awful PR over Comey firing, how big a bombshell is the Russia tie going to be?

        Another midnight massacre. Unlike Watergate, no one in GOP is willing to stand up for the integrity of government. Need special prosecutor,
