Politics Simple Question:

[dviss1]

I don't know.

Why?

If it "completely exonerated" the president why not share it?

Here's what's gonna happen if Barr doesn't give Congress the non redacted memo, it will be subpoenaed and so will Mueller.

I don't know the exact law and what Barr has to do or not do. If Barr doesn't have to give anyone the whole report then I don't care if he does.

I don't know if he would have to honor a subpoena or not.

The Democrats are supposedly the ones who passed these rules because they didn't like how the Clinton thing got handled so I'd stick it to them if I could even if the report clears me.

What are we likely to find out? That Trump has a long history of fraud or rape or murder or whatever else? The point of this was the Russians and our election. It Trump didn't do anything wrong there then none of these things should even go forward.

They throw in that "and any crimes found during the course of the investigation" or however they word it so they have freedom to go fishing for stuff they wouldn't have otherwise found. That's bullshit.

Are you suggesting that if Mueller and his team encounter any felonies they just ignore them?

Edit:
Does that mean if they catch someone committing a crime and they find out during the investigation that he or one of his buddies committed another felony they should ignore that, too?

They didn't catch anyone committing the crime they went fishing for. None of you seem to want to know how this whole thing started with a Fisa warrant.

Does getting off on a 'technicality' count as exoneration?

Suppose you murder SlyPokerDog. Suppose the police recover the murder weapon from your house but it turns out the search warrant wasn't properly done so they can't use it as evidence.

Does that make you innocent?

Not clear to me why the right-wing-o-sphere thinks this is such a great argument for team Trump.

"Yeah, you found a bunch of crimes and other awful behavior, but you shouldn't have been looking!"

Murder me?!?

If I was you I'd watch my back around Bodyman. He's a stone-cold killing machine.

I know, he wanted to meet up with me the last time I was in Vegas.

 

[barfo]

Exactly. I see all these posts here "I'm going to Vegas, what should I do". And then we never hear from the poster again.

They don't call him 'bodyman' for no reason.

Mrs PokerDog and I had gotten free tickets to see Blue Man Group but we had our helicopter flight over the strip at the same time so we couldn't use them. Was going to put them in Will Call for him but instead he wanted to meet up. Closest I ever came to dying in Vegas.

Dogs can be killing machines too, or at least scaring the crap out of cats machines:

So, you're suggesting that they should turn a blind eye to felonies discovered in their investigation. Well, I'm against that.

You guys amaze me. The murdering slypokerdog stuff is likely the worst analogy I've ever heard in my life.

Chomsky is simply amazing. I remember studying about him during several courses of philosophy, psychology, and even K. Eric Drexler's book, "Nanotechnology: The Engines of Creation."

I can't imagine how anyone could take issue with a word he said in this video.

It's Mueller time.

 

[Natebishop3]

The government works for us. They should release the whole thing.

 

[bodyman5000 and 1]

Even if there is stuff that Mueller found out about how the Russians go after us?

You know, things we could use against them.

Things that would compromise intelligence should be shared with the Gang of 8, but not with the public.

Fine with me. That isn't what most people want.

I think the public needs to be made aware of how we were manipulated. So yes.

What about how we manipulate others?

It would be a much bigger report.

 

[Road Ratt]

Release the unredacted version or you are hiding something. It will come out in the end what you are trying to hide, and at that point it will be even worse.

 

[dviss1]

We paid for it.

 

[riverman]

as long as the redacted version is "Mueller Lite"

 

[MarAzul]

We paid for it.

and geez! We didn't get what we want!!!

Oh, I am fine with it. Way too long but it is fine.
