IOWA STRONG

[tweeterhawk]

Rob, when he views this thread.....

Look, pal, Rob isn’t some tot running around swinging a light stick. He’s a grown man and a serious sports writer. His ban hammer is nothing to be trifled with.

On a message board that freely allows use of the f—-, s—- and other cuss words, why should there be a problem posting about the strengths and character of an ex-Hawkeye in the face of adversity?

Thread-saver post, right here. An IOWA STRONG everyone can agree with:

Matt isn't in politics.

I do miss the opt-in politics & off-topic forums we used to have. However I don't ever see Jon or Rob allowing them back.

I should not enter this Fray but I didnt start it. If any of you saw Whitaker's press conference a couple of weeks ago where he was ultra nervous, profusely perspiring, hemming and hawing, and said the investigation might be completed soon which is a no-no to opine on, then you would know he is not Iowa Strong in his current position. I feel sorry for him for being put in a position about 5 levels above his Peter Principal level only because he spouted off on Fox News to back up the Dumpster.

And we shall see what Whitaker's liability might be with recent fraud charges being investigated in some venture he was recently in.

“PUSH EM BACK”

LOLOLOL How’d that work out for you Clowns? I’d say about as well as it did for some of those congress types in that hearing.

It's great to be proud of the achievements of our alumni...Matt Whitaker is no one to be proud of at this point. History will not be kind.

 

[WinOneThisCentury]

This is Iowa Strong.

 

[thetrza]

Would've been funny if he had stood up to swear an oath to tell the truth while five guys next to him were sitting down. Just for the crazy Hayden Fry tight end nostalgia deal.

Yes, I'm sure Mr. Whitaker will be remembered as one of history's greatest villains.

Whitaker has no character, a complete embarrassment. He's being investigated himself, and is completely unqualified to be in the position he is in. Acting like a complete arrogant prick does not mean you have character. He has as much character and integrity as Trump. None.

ONCE AGAIN, NO POLITICS HERE. PERIOD!!!

ONCE AGAIN, NO POLITICS HERE. PERIOD!!!

Then why have a thread covering a person while not a politician himself is heavily involved in politics at the moment?

 

[AreWeThereYet]

I was bored, I clicked on this thread. I knew better, but I did anyway.

Chill.

First of all, I wasn't referring to your post, per se, more the inevitability that a thread such as this will quickly devolve into political bantering, and, thus, get deleted by Rob.

Secondly, if you genuinely think that I was implying that Rob is a 3 year-old swinging a plastic bat, then you need to stop drinking, or perhaps take it up......

No, I have an incredible eye for the obvious. I'm not saying there is anything wrong with it, but you really can't seriously debate the facts surrounding his appointment and his attitude. Seriously...how is Matt Whitaker qualified to be the Attorney General of the United States. What in his stellar legal career prepped him for the top law enforcement job in the US? Iowa Law School?

Iowa Law School is traditionally ranked in the top 20 or 25 in the world, and at one time was ranked top 10.

I wasn't trying to dis the law school it's usually in the top 30 of most rankings. Very good school. My point was that his career is littered with questionable experience and it's obvious he's a pay for play kind of guy. The law degree is one of two things in his background that is favorable.
