Did you just chalk up Flynn's lying to the Vice President to "shite happens"?
I don't really like this new partisan Sentrius, but I'll accept that ridiculous answer as a tacit admission of defeat.
Continue defending Flynn to other folks; I'll leave you alone

What was it? I mean, if it's damaging it seems like we would know. In this bat shite crazy time, when the color of underwear is political you think someone would spring it.
Flynn lied, Trump overreacted.

I hope the Congressman crowing about the real story being the taping of the call of a US citizen calls for the release of the transcript.
Let's get it all out in the open.
However, Trump's best move is for this to blow over and to get to the work of actually governing.

He's already screwed that up.

I'm surprised a conservative is backing it but Strannix has a point- an independent prosecutor should be appointed to look into all issue relating to Russia and the election.

I can agree that it's been a rough month for him.
The ship certainly seems rudderless. It's almost if campaign platitudes are totally different than the nuts and bolts of day-to-day governing.
Remember when Obama said he'd shut down Gitmo? good times

Well yeah James Comey and a minority of voters helped subvert the will of the people, its refreshing to see conservatives acknowledge this

They serve at the pleasure of the president but they take an oath to defend America from enemies both foreign and domestic.
Where those two ideals intersect is obviously open to message board argument
The domestic threat stipulation only applies when the president or any other member of the executive branch is clearly a traitor, knowingly or unknowingly putting american lives at risk or actually has them killed, or steals from the american people.
Flynn may be shady as shite but unless evidence comes out that he was clearly a domestic threat, this was a political assassination.

Clinton clearly committed crimes according to the statues of the law and Comey even implied as such in the July briefing and the leak was not from american actors and that's fair game.
Clinton played stupid games with her emails and got a stupid prize.

It's not anything until and unless Flynn lies about it.
And lol at you trying to parse the two scenarios by the nationalities of the leaker. Did Flynn not play stupid games? Has he not won a stupid prize?
I miss old Sentrius.

I'm not defending Flynn the character. He's shady as shite and was only feeding liberal conspiracy theories but he should've left of his own will and the administration's as well.
I just really detest people cheering police state tactics from anonymous deep state bureaucrats fighting elected officials just because they felt one advisor in the White House was a liability.

I know old sentrius was a libertarian so I'll give you the benefit of the doubt on this one, but can I assume you're thisnindignant anytime an article quotes "a senior administration official"? I mean this is literally how D.C. has operated for almost 60 years.

When this all washes out we will find that the CIA, the FBI, the Clinton Foundation and many politicians both democrat and republican were actually the ones working with the Russians. The attempt to connect Trump to Russia was a diversion to try and take the focus off of just how criminal the past administration has been
This! It's 100% to confuse the public into not knowing what to believe.
Although I do have an issue with "working with the Russians".. it is more like "ties to Russia", because at no point did their actions align with Russian interests (e.g., CIA involvement in destabilizing Ukraine, increasing missile installations along Russian border, Syria and the pipelines)

More like small government conservative who's had a reckoning with some of my previously held beliefs, particularly on immigration and a sheer hatred for islam and we may need to take some extreme measures to prevent it breaching western civilization to a catastrophic level.

There's a difference between leaking gossip bits about the work environment politicians operate in and while its inappropriate, its nothing that's police state like but illegally leaking sensitive classified documents especially when there's no criminal wrong doing identified yet is another thing entirely.
There's a line between political assassination and exposing criminal acts.

That Trump knew for weeks but they broke the news to Pence within the last 10 days?
That the administration was informed by DOJ that Flynn lied to them, but sat on it for some yet-unknown reason before yesterday?
Before those questions get answered we need to know what Flynn said to the Russian ambassador. Do we know?
FWIW, I'm for a full investigation by the FBI and the DOJ. Let's do this.

quote:Great post. The DNC has become a hostile party and I think the American people realized it and decided they were finally going to engage the other side aggressively before it was too late. It feels like we're at a boiling point.
You want the US to stand? To last the test of time? Then the people of the US had better start demanding the END of this type of politics. If not, what happens is a snow ball effect. The right has changed drastically on the local level and Trump should be your first clue.
They hired him because they view him as a tough guy. They are adopting the "end justifies the means" attitude of the left.
Is that ok with you? Can the right now:
1- Use the Irs to go after non profit organizations that promote liberal ideas?
2- Use the nuclear option for everything over the next 2 years?
I'm just saying. If this is where we are as a nation, then I want my side to win. So Let's roll.
As long as the leadership of the left acts this way, as long as the left MSM act this way..... I'm fine with the gloves off and fight fire with fire!
