    Bobby/jopat/whatever doesn't hate liberals he hates himself, hence the extreme attention-seeking behavior.

    @Bobbythegreat - you are a human being - you matter.

    Random deep thought this makes me think of -

    I think psychologists are going to study this period in history for years to come because its becoming more and more obvious that this is not just a Trump trait he's always had (attacking everyone else for what he's doing or how he's characterized), but now we are seeing the trait embraced by his followers who take in large sums of right wing media. This projection of self onto others is fascinating, and really shouldn't be incredibly shocking because even as young children what is one of our first reactions to human conflict in school or on the playground .... "I know you are but what am I".

    Just very interesting from a human psychology standpoint what we are experiencing now, and interesting what it shows about how we are changing or reverting back to in our characteristics and emotional intelligence.

    Your ability to fail to follow along in even the most simple conversations is pretty amazing. Officially, Comey hasn't done anything.....so I'm not sure how you'd get this out of what I said.....but you're special.

    "True objective people", if they were intelligent would realize that something that boils down to a "he said, she said" situation isn't going anywhere unless there's some way of proving which person is telling the truth. If that kind of evidence isn't out there, then the investigation isn't going anywhere. That's really all I've said, but people like you fail to follow along because you are "thinking" with hope and indulging in fantasy.

    Comey's letter is not legitimate evidence? Courts consider notes form the director of the FBI legitimate. You were working that whole easily-discernible-fact-ignored satire angle. Comedy Gold, Bob. Comedy Gold.

    No, it's not really "evidence" because

    1. It hasn't been proven to be legitimate in that no one has actually seen it and it was merely read by a 3rd party to a reporter.

    2. Even if it was proven to be legitimate it would essentially create a "he said, she said" scenario where it would be Comey's testimony that he previously perjured himself against the President's testimony that it didn't happen like that. A note written by a person is essentially just that person's testimony, not actual fact and isn't any more significant than that.

    Again kiddo, I know you REALLY want to believe, and I understand why, but your belief simply isn't enough.

    Anyone still defending the Putin Puppet at this point is a traitor to America and should be hanged for treason.

    But if one part in the he-she-said is Trump who has zero credibility versus FBI director who's memos are consider evidence by most courts, this is no contest ... by pretending this dynamic does not exit ... I mean we are venturing into Dumb snd Dumber Comedy Gold.

    I wouldn't be shocked if multiple people on this forum felt this way. Put your hinges back on.

    LOL okay, the problem is that the memo hasn't been established as legitimate AND it accuses Comey of perjuring himself even though it would be an extension of his own testimony.....and if he's guilty of perjury, it means that Comey has zero credibility so once again you are back to a situation with a he said she said scenario with 2 people that have zero credibility.

    Let's face it, you aren't concerned about actual proof, you're just part of a lynch mob that wants a specific outcome no matter what.....and that's fine, just admit to it instead of pretending that you are more than that. EVERYONE knows that you aren't already so it's not much of an admission.

    No. **** that and **** the vile Baby Boomer generation whose laziness and greed has plummeted us into this hellish mess.

    The country is unhinged and the revolution will be televised. I want bloodshed in the streets. I want to see their heads on stakes.

    Umm, sure, right. I would think that what most people want is to be relieved of all this ridiculous drama.

    And, you know, if we had a President who wasn't such an idiot and knew how to keep his mouth shut, it would probably be much, much better.

    You and Trump supporters don't get it. You blame the media, the deep state, etc. and keep giving Trump a pass. This is all on Trump. How many stupid things does he have to say or do before you'll finally get it?

    Here's what will happen- Trump will resign- he'll continue to cry about the witchhunt, his supporters will believe him, and he'll think he came out a winner, or whatever.

    Tell you what - you keep believing that Comey and Trump are equally non-credible, and you keep believing that Clinton is no better than Trump. At this point, you're in such a small majority, and you will be proven wrong, that you can say anything you want. If you're right, and Trump is found innocent, I'll come on here and apologize as I've done several times in the past. But I don't hold you to the same equivalent because it is clear that you never admit when you are wrong no matter how much evidence is put in front of you. You have a long track record of this and numerous people on this board can vouch for that.

    But I have zero problem admitting if I am wrong, and I'll come on here the day Trump is found innocent to admit I was wrong. Gladly.

    Please link to the letter, since clearly you've already reviewed it and have made your conclusion.

    See this is just classic liberal idiocy. No Worries hasn't read the letter - he just assumes the anonymous source who read it to the NY Times was 100% correct. Probably because it fits the story he wants to be true. Incredibly immature and lazy thinking and logic from No Worries.
