gowlerk 2,114 #51 April 4, 2017 QuoteRight now the whole Russia thing seems to be taking a side step because the Obama administration was caught using intelligence services to surveil their political opponents.. Bullshit. That's nothing but spin. The Russian thing is heating up because Trump and Russia colluded and more and more evidence is coming to light. Putin was only able to silence some of those in the know by murdering them.Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.

Russia didn't need to hack anything or collude with anyone. The Dems screwed themselves with their own ego, the same applies to the media. Nobody believes any of them any more. People pretend to, like you. But you all know deep down that it is all bullshit. If there was factual evidence of Russian collusion. All things considered we would know by now.

billvon 2,772 #53 April 4, 2017 >Russia didn't need to hack anything or collude with anyone. That's right. And Nixon didn't need to bug anyone or cover up his actions. But he did. And Enron didn't need to game energy markets and lie about it. But they did. Sometimes people do stuff they don't need to. >But you all know deep down that it is all bullshit. Then you will have no problem supporting a thorough investigation to prove that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Republicans couldn't believe Clinton beat Bush. There must have been some dark, sinister ploy afoot. I'm all for a thorough investigation. While we're at it let's have a thorough investigation of the Obama minions. Remember, these are the guys who delayed processing paperwork for right wing organizations. While I have no doubt that Trump's minions are capable I feel the same way about Obama's.Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gowlerk 2,114 #56 April 5, 2017 Quote While we're at it let's have a thorough investigation of the Obama minions. Since the Rs control all the levers of power I'm pretty sure that if there is something there to investigate it will be investigated. What you are forgetting is that Trump is not really a Republican. And it is not the out of power Ds who are coming after him. It's largely R establishment who can smell blood. They are itching to dump Trump for Pence.Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fo shizzle Just don't use hearsay as evidence and if the investigation leads to another crime, then use the full extent of the law to ensure those responsible for crimes are bought to justice. Tunnel vision is not helpful in such an investigation. In politics those pointing the finger are often complicit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LOL, I believe you will find that Americans are fat and relatively unhealthy , and Russians are generally in shape and healthy because of the quality of food. Confusing food with diet is like confusing weather with climate.... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Confusing food with diet is like confusing weather with climate. The life expectancy of Russians; "Russian levels of alcohol consumption and suicide are among the highest in the world. While observers have long suspected an association between the two, they were unable to investigate this hypothesis until recently due to past Soviet secrecy and thus a lack of data. This study took advantage of the newly available data during the post-Soviet era to examine the cross-sectional association between heavy drinking and suicide mortality in Russia" https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1642767/ "Today, according to the World Health Organization, one-in-five men in the Russian Federation die due to alcohol-related causes, compared with 6.2 percent of all men globally. In her 2000 article “First Steps: AA and Alcoholism in Russia,” Patricia Critchlow estimated that some 20 million Russians are alcoholics in a nation of just 144 million." https://www.theatlantic.com/international/archive/2013/09/how-alcohol-conquered-russia/279965/ "The transition to market economies in many post-communist societies of the former Soviet Union and other former eastern bloc countries in Europe has a produced a “demographic collapse,” a recent report by the United Nations Development Programme has found. Among the most serious findings is a four year drop in life expectancy among Russian men since 1980, from 62 years to 58." https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1116380/ Once again faulty prog..ram**kming in the Russian cloud together with factual errors courtesy Mr. Putin.

Good news along that front: ======================== Report: FBI Creating Special Unit to Coordinate Russia Investigation BY: Joe Schoffstall, Free Beacon. April 4, 2017 5:15 pm The Federal Bureau of Investigation is creating a special unit in an effort to co-ordinate investigations into Russia's alleged involvement in the 2016 presidential elections, according to a report from the Financial Times. . . . "It's meant to surge resources," one FBI agent told the Financial Times. The publication notes that the FBI prefers to conduct investigations from one of their 56 field offices, but the nature of the inquiry and media attention requires the investigation to have a central manager. A person briefed on the plan told the Financial Times that it's getting "unwieldy" and "too big" since it's "on the front pages of newspapers every day." The new team will consist of 20 agents from around the United States and will be led by an FBI counter-intelligence officer. If the group operates in the same manner as similar units in the past daily updates will be given to James Comey, the director of the FBI, and Andrew McCabe, the deputy director, according to the Times. ========================= Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
