Letter: Democrats flame out

By Donald Farnsworth, Vancouver

Let me tell you how I see the Democrats and the Mueller report. Way back in 2016, a left observer was looking out and saw a huge pile of very wet wood. One was a large log and the remainder were smaller pieces and a bunch of limbs. The new day brought out the sun and from the pile of wood vapor started to rise. Now the Democrat thought this was a sign from heaven, thinking it was smoke.

Getting the rest of the left all excited they started poking around for the fire. They poked and poked, spending some $25 million looking for the fire and came up with nothing.

Since the special counsel did not find anything that met their needs and the “no” fire went out, it was about time to really get this pile of wood going. Somehow Mueller missed something, but by golly we have the right kind of match now to get this pile really going, and in stepped Rep. Adam Schiff. I guess the only thing that will save the pile is the 2020 election.
