[W:509] Watching the Barr senate hearing.

[bongsaway]

After listening to mr. graham I would think this hearing is about hillary clinton and james comey.

So far what I see is another day of trying to exonerate not only the president but mr. barr and his decisions concerning what he said about the mueller report. What is with our justice system that the AG can sit in front of the senate and still lie even when everyone knows he's lying. Mueller told barr he was misrepresenting his report and barr went ahead and told everyone the president didn't collude when mueller never reported that. Then he told everyone under oath he didn't know what mueller's feelings were about the four page summary when he damn well knew mueller objected with his assessment.

What new lows can the GOP reach today?

Drain the swamp? Yeah and turn it into a den of liars and thieves.

The GOP are doing nothing but tarnishing themselves at every opportunity. Sad to see what the party of law and order has become.

 

[Mycroft]

Barr is slapping Feinstein upside the head with the law and facts.

She doesn't like it.

The right has become so incredibly foolish, and so disdainful of the rule of law in this country. I hope they find their allegiance to Trump to be worth it in the end. Trump and Bannon set out to destroy the GOP, and they are succeeding admirably - but that's because the GOP is letting them.

Nobody cares about Hillary Clinton except the drooling idiots who toss their underpants at Trump's feet. How sad that they can't stop obsessing over her. And I'll bet more than half the country couldn't tell you who James Comey even is.

A sad day for the once great Republican Party that I supported for almost 40 years. They are now officially dead.

Barr is slapping Feinstein upside the head with the law and facts.

She doesn't like it.

I think there is a long list of Democrats and their water-carriers in the media who can't deal with the simple facts of this investigation.

 

[Cardinal]

When watching this hearing, keep in mind that Barr is a liar. It will take at least a couple days to really know which statements of his are actually accurate.

 

[Mycroft]

Grassley raised a number of issues pertinent to possible illegal actions by people in the Obama administration and others. The takeaway from Barr's answers is that he is looking into these issues.

Trump haters should take this seriously...as should those he will be looking at.

You wish to get to the bottom of this surely? Total transparency surely? If Hillary and the DNC and or Comey and his minions have done wrong surely you would want to know!

If his lips are moving - the odds are he is lying or twisting or perverting the actual truth.

 

[Cardinal]

Barr is arguing like every trump supporter on this forum: nonstop lies, straw-manning, deflection and filibustering. This is why I'm uninterested in Barr's words. I doubt that anything valuable will come of this. The really interesting hearing I'm looking forward to is Mueller's.

I watched the GOP make a Faustian bargain with the racist south (60's), then with the whackos of the religious right (80's). I hope this bargain with Trumpism destroys them before they manage to take over the courts and remove voting rights from anyone not of their cult.

Barry Goldwater on Evangelicals

"Mark my word, if and when these preachers get control of the [Republican] party, and they're sure trying to do so, it's going to be a terrible damn problem. Frankly, these people frighten me. Politics and governing demand compromise. But these Christians believe they are acting in the name of God, so they can't and won't compromise. I know, I've tried to deal with them.
The religious factions that are growing throughout our land are NOT using their religious clout with WISDOM. I'm frankly sick and tired of the political preachers across this country telling me as a citizen that if I want to be a moral person, I must believe in 'A,' 'B,' 'C,' and 'D.' Just who do they think they are?... I will fight them every step of the way if they try to dictate their moral convictions to all Americans in the name of "conservatism."[1]

Republicans are burning down their house for Trump. Stunningly stupid.

Barr is a pathetic hack. I didn't think there would ever be a more hack AG than Gonzales, but I was wrong. Barr is shameless. The new GOP.

Oh please you folks with HDS and ODS are just being ridiculous at this point. You guys are still pissed that over 8 years of investigating Hillary and Obama you got NOTHING. :lamo

 

[KLATTU]

B This is why I'm uninterested in Barr's words. . r's.

BEcause he told you that Muller cleared Trump of collusion and obstruction . You'd much prefer a left wing spinmeister tell you Mueller got it all wrong and there was collusion and there was obstruction.
Which is all just poodle -yapping at Trump's ankles.
No indictments. No impeachment.

The end.

Benghazi!

Just lock her up already. Being a Clinton is a crime.

When Nicole Wallace -= a lifelong Republican and staffer in the Bush White House - comes on the air to interrupt Barr and calls him a LIAR and then points out his repeated lies, its hopeless. Barr is an insult to any honest people in this country and should resign today.

That indeed is a profound statement. Are you claiming the AG is perjuring himself repeatedly?

 

[Mycroft]

Nonsense

The end.

You'd prefer Barr's summary of Mueller's report, which Mueller specifically disagreed with, over Mueller himself. Why is that?

 

[Crystal]

Benghazi!

Just lock her up already. Being a Clinton is a crime.

Why do you think that?

 

[apdst]

Barr claims Mueller said the press is reading too much into the report. That's interesting.

 

[calamity]

Banana Republicans are living up to their names.

 

[Fletch]

Clearly, none of you liberals are listening to the testimony. Let me summarize it for you: Its over.

 

[apdst]

You'd prefer Barr's summary of Mueller's report, which Mueller specifically disagreed with, over Mueller himself. Why is that?

Mueller never disagreed with Barr's summary.
