    First you said "Comey has landed a $10 million dollar book deal". Now you're saying he has not "landed a $10 million dollar book deal". Did you lie in your first post when you said "Comey has landed a $10 million dollar book deal."?

    You really need to quit hanging out at the airports and watching CNN.

    Translation - They are the actual people that accomplish something. To be shunned.

    No. My statement was perfectly clear: They're liars and thieves. And, yes, liars and thieves should be shunned.


    Sadly, trump supporters have sold out, and are now settling for "bottom of the barrel" leaders. <Flame-bait>

    And you need to take off your blinders. If you stop following con men and charlatins such as the Orange Maggot, maybe you'll be able to find a worthwhile leader to put on a pedestal.

    I wonder if you felt the same way about Trump's crusade in search of evidence that Obama was not born in the US.

    You can't do business with Russian banks when they are under US sanctions. Don't you remember when Bush went after Exxon for meeting with the Cuban oil minister in Mexico City?

    Sessions faces indictment for obstruction of justice into the Flynn investigation.

    So at the very least he needs to clam up under the 5th Amendment.

    Not at all! The intent of the BLOTUS is for Mueller to determine.

    That Sessions has already lied and perjured himself to Congress on the record already means that he will do so again so his testimony has zero credibility just as the BLOTUS has none either.

    Relying upon witnesses with zero credibility is not going to result in any indictment against Comey.

    On the other hand Mueller will be looking into evidence that might indict Sessions and the BLOTUS for crimes.

    No, it does nothing of the sort!

    There were already others calling for a Special Counsel long before Comey said anything at all.

    What were those "presidential directives at the time"?

    The illegal and unconstitutional waterboarding torture of prisoners?

    Those were not LEGAL "presidential directives" so defying them was the right thing to do in those circumstances.

    You can't do business with Russia or Russian banks when they are under US sanctions. Trump and Kushner are simply too, too stupid.

    Don't you remember when Bush went after Exxon for meeting with the Cuban oil minister in Mexico city in 2005?

    What is even worse is that current BLOTUS staff can't even find personal lawyers to defend themselves for the investigation into the Russian cyberwarfare investigation.

    Because Comey hasn't decided on who'll publish his tell all, doesn't mean that the reports of Comeys shopping around, or the offers of $10 million on the table aren't true.

    Purely wishful thinking. Muellers team can spin their wheels on obstruction, but he'll have to recuse himself first. Ignore the fact that Sessions #2 can seek an indictment on Comey the instant Sessions refutes any portion of his testimony. Sessions will testify in a closed hearing as any prosecutor would insist upon, if the testimony would become evidence in a subsequent criminal trial. Mueller allowed Comey to testify publicly ... Sessions isn't.

    Its much broader than collusion or obstruction.
