    Wait, I know I’m a bleeding heart libtard animal lover who hates hunting but PEOPLE HUNT SHEEP?????

    Like, they’re slow dumb sentient sweaters! Where’s the challenge in that?

    Sheep are sentient?

    I’ve stated my belief that he should have been removed from office after Helsinki, impeached based on volume II of mueller report, and impeached based on Ukraine situation. I have opined on Russian election interference in this thread ad nauseum, and suggested steps to be taken moving forward, both internally facing and externally. Seriously. You guys are putting on a pathetic showing. 

    Nah.  It's mostly just that any serious post you make gets lost in dozens of posts full of nothing but vague, pedantic bullshit.  That's on you.

    Yes. And more specifically the subsection under III.A labeled “probable cause”. 

    I'm not sure what you're getting at, but I'm quite sure you'll continue to be vague and beat off to what is surely just more trolling on your part.

    Why don't you actually lay out your exact reasons for believing that there was not probable cause for the surveillance on Page?  I mean, if you have any you can articulate?

    I think Reagan marked the end of an era.  The rise of partisanship really took off during the Clinton years

    L. M. F. A. O.

    Yeah, it happened under Clinton.  Jesus Christ, I need to find a new hobby.  You people are an enormous beating.

    Brisket, surely you know that Presidents have been getting away with shit since forever.  Sure, once in a while a scandal surfaces and some measure of accountability is had, but only a fool would think Iran-Contra, Watergate, Filegate, etc. were the only malfeasance going on during their respective administrations.  I'm not saying malfeasance in the past excuses malfeasance in the present.  I'm saying that your hysteria is farcical given a historical perspective.  My default assumption is that they are all abusing power.  It's one reason I've been such a loud voice decrying the tools and apparatus of the surveillance state for years.  If they can, they will.  Best to ensure they can't than hope they won't.

    Richard Nixon resigned because he knew there were more than enough Republican senators willing to convict.

    Do you honestly think we're at the same place now?

    JimmyJames doesn’t understand the different standards involved regarding a predicate to open an investigation versus the probable cause standard required for FISA surveillance. 
     

    I typoed the jimmy1/2 thing. So I understand if this is the root of your confusion. I tried to lay cover for the typo by suggesting that jimmyjames has overtaken you in my jimmy dip shit rating seeds.  

    Jesus, try to be less clever and just write like a normal (brained) human being.

  7. I wish just one of these Dems would choose not to read their heartfelt plea to become the next Elijah Cummings and refute the fucking lies of whatever Republican just spoke before them.

    Seriously, just wing it.  "Mr. Jordan says no quid pro quo, but he is completely refuted not only by Mick Mulvaney but also by President Trump, later that same day.  Gym Jordan, why are you a serial liar?"

    Fuck.

    Sorry which post?

    Sorry, I assume I'm either jimmy1 or jimmy2, maybe I'm jimmy3 and unaware.  I'll repeat my edited post:

    I noticed you never responded to my post.  Funny how that works.  Do you agree that many of were saying the report wasn't vetted and that it wasn't required to proceed, based on quotes by informed officials?  Horowitz corroborates.

    This is fucking silly. I get it, majority of the Shag hates rap

    I actually don't think that's true.  At least, it doesn't seem to be true among those who participate on this particular forum.  I mean, I'm a pretty typical mid-50s white Dad who mostly listens to rock and pop but I own a little rap and listen to it fairly often.  I think it's pretty fucking obvious that over the past few decades there have been an abundant number of rap artists with massive talent.  Most may not "sing" but they write and perform lyrical content that can be every bit as evocative as Springsteen or whoever your favorite lyricist might be.  Throw in what I hear as pretty innovative vocal timing and delivery (I guess that's "flow"), and I'm not gonna criticize them for not being a terrific singer when I don't criticize Bob Dylan in that way, either.

    So has anybody changed their prior stated opinions on this thread regarding the veracity of the Steele dossier or the probable cause basis for the FISA application based on the OIG report?

    No.  The Steele report was never submitted as a vetted document, and it was never sold as standalone evidence of the need for surveillance of page.  Horowitz doesn't contradict this.

    My bad JJ. Poor assumption. I am a little more hopeful about the electorate and the outcome of the election. I hope it is a broad mandate to right some of the wrongs. 

    Again, my apologies.

    No worries, I'm a overly sensitive prick these days, even moreso than usual.

    Impeachment conviction? No?

    Hell no, he's not going to be convicted.  My only hope is that it will put enough Republicans on record and they might have to pay a price if the evidence is damning enough.  I'm not hopeful.

    I think the actual end game will be far uglier.

    We wouldn't want the people to decide if there needs to be FISA reform. FFS, lean in and work in all areas to improve this nation. Especially when your solution is guaranteed to fail.

    What is my solution and how is it guaranteed to fail?

    Would stop them from launching an investigation into any number of political candidates. The election will be the final say. 

    That's fucking idiotic.  I mean, flat fucking idiotic.

    Mr. "Rule of Law" is advocating that we ignore the laws and let the people decide.

    Ever hear the phrase "Tyranny of the Majority"?  Look into it.

    Focus, please. Not all issues are partisan or about the current occupant of the White House.

    On a thread regarding the DOJ investigation of the President's campaign?
