Letter: Republicans flail around

By Toni Jacobson, Battle Ground
Published: December 9, 2019, 6:00am

I was watching some of the impeachment hearings and I noticed that every time the Republicans had a turn to speak they always got very angry, very upset and unable to just talk. It was always with such fury. I wonder why that was.

The Democrats were much easier to listen to and understand both the questions and the answers. They say when a person knows he or she is right they are slow to get upset, and when a person knows they are wrong that is when they get very agitated and flail around.

I wonder what that is all about. Do you?
