Its disturbing that leftists arent disturbed by this
Posted by bamafan1001 on 3/5/17 at 10:42 am406
It confirms to me that leftists are the way they are for reasons that go deeper than just policy differences.
Ordering surveillance of political opponents is a scary and disturbing abuse of power. I dont understand the rational associated with defending this behavior. I most certainly dont understand the motivation to attempt to deflect the narrative. This tells me that you know these accusations are probably true and simply dont care because the actions were used to hurt the other side.
If a conservative were accused of this, I would want the truth to be known in order to vindicate my side.

I was shocked at how well they accepted the IRS blocking Americans from participating in the electoral process.
I am no longer shocked by whatever positions of convenience the left takes on these matters.

The radical left will use any and all methods to achieve their agenda.

If true it's a bad deal. I'm just wanting more evidence than breitbart and Donald trump both of whom have shown themselves to be inaccurate and desire to push a narrative at all costs completely in disagreement with reality.

They're only upset the left got caught. They're totally down for these disturbing tactics.
They are still ignoring all the articles posted yesterday and denying that federal surveillance existed....now pretending that it's just a Brietbart conspiracy theory.
So they clearly are disturbed by it enough to feign ignorance.

Indeed. It seems leftists are only interested in maintaining self perceived moral superiority. You made a post a while back about the ever shifting line of victimhood. Leftists at the voting bloc level only exist to be perpetual victims or advocates of victims. The issue doesnt matter as long as they are on the victim side of it.
My only guess is this is due to a massive level of self consciousness and feelings of inadequateness.
The leftists at the highest levels are only interested in power and influence. They may or may not empathize with leftist voters but regardless use them to obtain and maintain their power.

I'm waiting for more facts to come out.
As of right now, this whole thing is just a giant circus.

They're all brainwashed cult members. Looking thru that lens, they're behavior is predictable.

all you have to do is look at 2 Presidents, Nixon and Clinton, when Nixon got into trouble it was his own part(R) that came to him and told him he had to go, that his actions were unacceptable. When Clinton got into trouble his party(D) circled the wagons and whored themselves to protect him, and by doing so, their own power.

Id say they have shown theirselves to be accurate a hell of a lot, especially recently. Donald Trump is the President and you know as well as I do the level of information he has at his fingertips. When a sitting President makes this kind of accusation it should be taken very seriously. Trump is not just the host of Celebrity Apprentice anymore
quote:
Amid Thursday’s over-hyped brouhaha about Jeff Sessions meeting with the Russian ambassador, a curious detail emerged. In Sessions's recusal memo, it was explained who at the Justice Department would be handling any investigations into the Trump campaign's alleged ties to Russia. "Consistent with the succession order for the Department of Justice, Acting Deputy Attorney General and U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia Dana Boente shall act as and perform the functions of the Attorney General with respect to any matters from which I have recused myself to the extent they exist," reads Sessions's official statement on the matter.
Except that if the Obama administration had its way, Dana Boente wasn't supposed be the U.S. attorney to handle these matters in the event that Sessions recused himself. On February 10, USA Today reported the following:
Seven days before he left office, President Obama changed the order of succession without explanation to remove Boente from the list. Obama's order had listed U.S. attorneys in the District of Columbia, the Northern District of Illinois and the Central District of California.
Why would Obama try to place a loyalist in charge of any future investigation into the wire taps? Why would he need a Holder lackey in charge of that?
