Disagree. LTG is doing very well against a multi-pronged attacked in the Nick Marotic thread.

This is going to reach a head pretty soon.

My guy says the memo was released to distract from the tanking stock market (currently down $600+)

The memo probably caused the tanking stock market.

I'm sure you understand why we can't have federal agencies basing investigations on the opposition research of political parties. Forget about Trump. Many people hate Trump and it is blinding them. Imagine if this story had the FBI moving against Hillary Clinton based on information sourced and paid for by Ted Cruz. Would you be blowing that off as a "nothingburger"? Because I sincerely don't believe you would. And Trump may be in business with Vladimir Putin and the entire dossier may be true. That simply misses the point.

Wellness Check on Baby McCown. This was supposed to be a big day for him.

There is not a damned thing wrong with people who are bull shitters.

I seem to remember you being positively euphoric when Comey decided to reopen the Email investigation. It was obviously endorsed by Republican operatives yet you had no problem accepting to validity of the information.

This is quite the flip flop.

But that is not the sole basis for the investigation...just another part which came after the investigation was under way. Also, I trust the FBI to be able to separate facts from pablum regardless of the source.

I wish it was only $600.

Looks like I'm back to posting here in the mornings until I'm in my 70s

You remember wrong. At the time I thought Comey was covering his ass. He never should have made a statement that required clarification in the first place. Now I think he was covering his ass for more than just a mistake. And his tweets which are just slightly lower than Trump's on the insanity scale aren't doing much to dispel that.

The fact that it formed any part of an argument for probable cause for a warrant is extremely troubling, and the fact that Rosenstein did not inform the judge of the dossier's politicized origins is misconduct that should result in his termination.

I wasn’t born until 67. Remind me how much the folks in the 60s just blindly trusted Hoover and his boys.

Same.

Isn't part of the issue with this memo that all of the information that would paint a correct picture of the facts cannot be shown for security reasons? So whatever is gleaned from it my in part be tarnished by the fact that the true reasoning behind said actions cannot be unclassified?

So we are kind of arguing over a part of an unfinished picture? Carry on by all means. Don't want to stand in the way of a good party.

I wear size 33 you fat slobs.

They don’t need to show the whole memo. They could show the Dem point by point response to it...but they won’t and we all know why.
