    Imagine trumpbrosassostrigonum lining up behind a stubby fingered, flabby old white man who doesn't like it and gets visibly upset when women or coloreds get out of line by getting too mouthy.

    It's enough to make you say where does it come from.

    You said you support him because he going after Congress. How he's been going after Congress is withholding information and not cooperating with another co-equal branch of government.

    Barr is a disgrace and should be tried as a traitor.

    That’s what happens when you see things though ideological lens.

    You said you didn’t like it when Holder and Obama did some of those things. I agree Congress had a duty to investigate things like Fast Furious and Benghazi and the executive branch should cooperate. What we’re seeing with the Trump admin is a far greater obstruction when dealing with other branches.

    In any world that respected legal norms Barr should be impeached and indicted. He’s essentially committed perjury in claiming that he had no knowledge of Trump’s statements supporting Roger Stone refusing to cooperate with investigators and Trump’s statements critical of “rats”.

    Unfortunately we don’t live in that type of World.

    If Barr genuinely didn't know about any of those statements then he frankly isn't doing his job.

    But he obviously knows. Barr doesn't live in a media exclusion bubble.

    The insanity of this position is just over the top.

    To compare Obama with Nixon, and to do it with Trump in office.

    So you and Basso aren’t interested in principles. It’s SOLELY partisan to get Obama.

    it's clear nearly everyone simply roots for their tribe, and their self-righteousness about the other side is not based on any core convictions. i used to care, but things have changed.

    we all know what Obama did, and when folks take his criminal malfeasance as seriously as Trumps malign buffoonery, perhaps i'll care again.
