    That'll never happen, but you are right, that would be hysterical.... Watching him leave the premises with the majority of the popular vote...

    But let's not get fancy.... gotta get him out via the methodology at hand... The whole thing comes down to 7 US states... how will they fall?

    All those Benghazi investigations and nothing. No body went to prison. Nothing.

    That was not their purpose it was an OVERSIGHT hearing and we found out LOT'S of failings of the Obama White House and Clinton State Department and yes it may have cost her the election. And passed on to the DOJ evidence of a possible crime.

    Why do you assert they were about sending people to prison. Congress cannot send people to prison, they can only oversee the operations of the various departments and cabinet secretaries whom the confirm. The hearings found LOTS of failings by the Clinton Department of State and the obvious collusion and cover up as to their failings in circumventing and reacting to the attack and then their collusion and conspiracy to cover up the facts.

    Simple question for you. Were any of those failings they discovered criminal in nature? If so, why hasn't our current AG done anything about it?

    Nonsense.Obama's adinistration and Hillary's state departnent blatantly broke all sorts of laws regarding the terrorism, both U.S and internationsl laws.No one is allowed to arm and financially support Islamic terror groups.
    By the way, U.S ambassador lost his life because he was coordinating arm shipments fron Libya to Syrian radical jihadists.Sometimes called Al-Qaeda, sometimes called ISIS and liberal media covered up the crime by calling them moderate rebels who were beheading people for fun.

    It is when compared to the millions who voted. The ratio is still the same no matter the pool of voters.

    Who's report? Clearly not Mueller's. So why continue to blather about that you know something that clearly the report doesn't contend or otherwise prove. And to put a superfine point on it, there are allegations that are currently being tested in court and clearly that also isn't going very well for the Mueller team, is it?

    So when Obama promised the US public that no interference had happened, he lied? Because you are suggesting then that he did. So which is it? Your dear leader either a) publicly perpetuated a lie that damaged national security, or b) launched a political operation on US soil that attempted to remove a duly elected president. Hmm... I vote for B.

    That just crap, my friend... Obama promised no such thing, despite what you've swallowed from some RW source....

    We can debate if he should have done more about what they knew, but that's also been explained to us and it's a logical explanation, so I don't expect you to accept that either...

    Quoting Obama here.. " "There is no serious person out there who would suggest somehow that you could even rig America's elections. There's no evidence that that has happened in the past or that there are instances in which that will happen this time."

    Care to amend your previous statement?

    True...obviously he couldn't say there was no influence, given the "massive scale" of manipulation being done by Google on behalf of the DNC.

    He did however say the election couldn't be rigged, or stolen...and to stop whining.

    It would be nice if he reminded the DNC today

    Not at all... I figured that's the statement you would go with, so I feel good that I didn't miss anything.... Suggest you lookup the word "Rig" in relation to elections...

    How was Susan Rice of all people chosen to be the one to go on the Sunday shows that next Sunday and how was her false narrative created?

    Sweet, so you accept the statement. Now, demonstrate that Russians did, in fact, compromise any voting systems. We have lots of time today.

    She won by virtue of the race/chic card. If you disagreed with her, you're both a racist, and a sexist....

    SNIP
    It concluded that while there was no evidence that any votes were changed in actual voting machines, “Russian cyberactors were in a position to delete or change voter data” in the Illinois voter database. The committee found no evidence that they did so.

    But they didn't "Rig" anything...... this time..... Just like former President Obama claimed...

    2020?? Who knows... but that would be under another administration who knew about this capability for 4 full years.... won't that be embarrassing if the Russians actually did try to "Rig" something this time?

    EDIT - Most of my time today will be in the Greenland threads.... much more fun than this one...

    Good point the only time the Russians interfered in our election was on the watching the president who promised to be “more flexible” with them. Interesting how that worked out

    So, your only purpose is to what? Scaremonger? Why do you think that's even appropriate?
