    It's almost as if he will lie or say anything to advance his immediate objective, regardless of the truth or the consequences. If I was a cynical man, I might be concerned about such inconsistencies. Alas, I prefer to be a lemming.

    How are you feeling about that 80% now? Good, bad, indifferent? I think its gaining momentum and will continue to do so. There is a whole lot of "there" there.

    Follow the money like Congress minus Ted Cruz, from Russia with love, impeach Trump.

    He can't really claim fake news on this... Too much happening.

    The whole thing is so terrible. The interesting part is that both Flynn and Sessions would have legitimate reasons to be communicating with the Russian officials. They didn't have to lie. Yet they did. So why would they do that?

    There is a legit reason for them to lie and attempt to quash the Russian connections by reaching out to the agencies asking them to say there's no issue. And that legit reason will turn out to be illegal and lead to impeachment.

    Right but they could have de-escalated the whole situation from the start without anyone realizing what was/did happen. Krauthammer last night said "it's a cover up in search of a crime". Now I don't believe there isn't a crime, but you get my drift. The whole thing could have been avoided.

    Are you sure you have that right? He was held in contempt for refusing to turn over certain documents under executive privilege. It was a long time ago and my memory may be a little faded. But post a link that it was for perjury please.

    So he wasn't tried or convicted in congress. And I was trying not to be a smart ass, but being held in contempt and committing perjury are two different charges.
    Either way, the 'example' is full of shit.

    Did anyone here call for Holder's resignation when he was held in contempt for lying under Oath?

    Don't bother answering, I already know.

    Are you sure you have that right? He was held in contempt for refusing to turn over certain documents under executive privilege. It was a long time ago and my memory may be a little faded. But post a link that it was for perjury please.

    So he wasn't tried or convicted in congress. And I was trying not to be a smart ass, but being held in contempt and committing perjury are two different charges.
    Either way, the 'example' is full of shit.
    Consider the source.
