I seem to remember reports around the time the news of the existence of the memos broke that the friend was dictating portions of the memos to the press.
Right, but that was stuff that broke on May 16, after the tape tweet

The May 11 story only sources to "conversations"

but it was still leaked to the NYT that (a) there was a memo, and (b) that memo says Trump told Comey that he hoped Comey would "let Flynn go"

You're impossible to have a discussion with because you constantly move the goal posts.

better?

did you want his memo to be in handsome handwritten black ink and delivered in an envelope?

what constitutes the leak of a 'memo' to you exactly?

just like how somehow seeing a screenshot of the memo in 9 point times-roman with some black 'scruff' on the screen confirms its existence.

OK, lets play your game. Who leaked the info?

From a meeting with the president, after the room was cleared? Who leaked that? And directed that it get to the MSM?

because that's where we found out about it from

Comey, obviously.

That isn't the debate, now is it?

no, apparently you're completely hung up on the "memo" as a sticking point to whether what comey did was in response to trump's tweet or not.

this sounds like comey's version of clintons 'depends on what the definition of IS, is.'

So he leaked information that he knew the prez wanted kept confidential (cleared the room), after refusing to open investigations into the WH leaks after being directed to by his superior?

I mean..yeah

That is the debate, no?

Whether or not Comey lied under oath when he said he did not release the memo until after Trump's tweet about the tapes.

Isn't that the debate? I realize you have tried to change it multiple times now.

I'm pretty sure that his testimony under oath was not limited to the word memo

And I'm pretty sure that is also the reason he used his Columbia law pal, so he could later claim that he didn't leak to the MSM

And yet he wanted to be judge, jury, and executioner over both Trump and Hillary

Because you sure don't want to argue the fact that Comey had more influence on our election than the Russians.

There needs to be a special counsel investigating James Comey.

ok captain obvious.

how is leaking the CONTENTS of the memo and a screenshot/pdf/cave drawing of the memo itself fundamentally different?

Bro don't you know reading a memo over the phone is not leaking the memo?

You some kind of moron or something?

Emailing a copy of the memo ain't leaking the memo either. Neither is reading it into a tape recorder and leaking the recording. Neither is printing up 100 copies and hanging them in the hall.

You got to take the original diary and hand it to someone to leak it bro.

Iosh/salmon straighten this suckah out.
