EXACTLY.

Should I post pics of Obama and Hillary with the same dude?


I'm not sure what your point is here.

Sure. Feel free to show where the Russian embassador is looming over him in the oval office.

Maybe you can show a picture of Obama sharing classified information with him?

You'd make a great cop. You: "Did you rob the bank?". Bank Robber: "No." You:"Ok, that proves you didn't rob the bank."

Not really.

I tend to mostly take people at their word, but always seek to verify outside sources if at all possible.

8 years is a standard stint in the military, so that makes sense. I would guess, with low confidence, some non-combat arms, since those stints tend to be shorter.

Which is makes my comment on "ethical and competent" part more relevant because you take an oath to defend the cons ution, which Trump has all over. If TSA were ethical and competent, he would not be supporting him by carrying his water.

EXACTLY.

Not even close. The only thing Barr disagreed with was opening a full blown investigation from comments over drinks from a campaign. He had no problem with a preliminary investigation.

What other findings are you claiming Barr disputed?

The Inspector General’s report now makes clear that the FBI launched an intrusive investigation of a U.S. presidential campaign on the thinnest of su ions that, in my view, were insufficient to justify the steps taken.

where does he say that he'd be cool with a preliminary investigation?

38 seconds in. Specifically disagreed with the “full blown” investigation.

that's awfully thin, brah

i believe at his hearing, horowitz did say that durham felt that way (preliminary investigation)... dont know if we've seen anything from barr that says that.

though of course barr/durham are uncomfortably close with this investigation, so i'm assuming we can basically impute durham's opinions onto barr and vice versa

So he spoke with other countries officials at their request and used the proper diplomatic channels. What’s the problem?

[spurraider21]

the article is full of direct quotes from barr

so really the ding is you disregarding direct quotes because they were posted on a website you dont like

[spurraider21]

i didnt say he used improper channels. its just very clear that he has a vested interest in the outcome of durham's investigation, in that he really wants it to give a specific set of results.

nah, it's called sarcasm but you're a square so... as well, CNN and i will never ever read their garbage no matter how accurate you claim it to be.

Awfully thin was opening up a full blown investigation into a Presidential campaign based on some gossip Papadapolous heard that he repeated to someone else who eventually got it to the US government. Horowitz said it was properly opened because the bar to open an FBI investigation is extremely low and just needs an articulable fact. Horowitz and Barr can both be correct. It was properly opened but the articulable fact was flimsy, especially considering this was an investigation into a Presidential campaign. Do you think Papadapolous comment warranted a full blown investigation?

And do you know of anything else Barr disagreed with in the IG report? I don’t think djohn and RG are going to answer.

hopefully the outcome is hanging hillary and her cronies on nat'l tv!

Of course he has a vested interest he’s the Attorney General and believes his a President had a bull FBI investigation opened against him. After reading the IG report I don’t see how you can see otherwise.

"full blown" is vague. i'll defer to the findings of the obama-appointed IG. he thought it was justified

And do you know of anything else Barr disagreed with in the IG report? I don’t think djohn and RG are going to answer.

i dont. i also dont see any mention of him discussing that a preliminary investigation would have been appropriate
