Absolutely, I'm sure many of them will. A bunch of others are going to end up murdered in El Salvador or bad parts of Mexico though.

Nope. It wasn't false in the context . So no perjury I'm afraid.

I said he may have misunderstood the intent of the question. If you don't understand the difference maybe you're not qualified to comment.

LOL Sushy.

He flat out lied. He specifically said under oath he had no contact with the Russians.

It's hilarious you cannot accept he lied as an answer.

I mean dude, it's now 7 people in Trump's inner circle w/ ties to Russia. Do you think it's all a big coincidence or something?

Amazing.
What's even more amazing is that Rick Perry has a job previously held by someone with a Nobel Prize in physics. Only in America....

I would love to know how Trump's crew spending an absurd and inexplicable amount of time with Russians during the campaign makes America Great Again.

The saddest part is that the reprehensible conditions in Central and South America that make fleeing to the US so attractive are largely our own doing. We have a moral obligation to help these people, imo, not send them back to the warzones we've created.

He didn't say that at all.

Lol at you.

Jeff Sessions: "I didn't have — did not have communications with the Russians."

If that was the case people would quit coming, but they don't. You are delusional and need to get out more.

No we don't. How have we created war zones in Central America?

Also worth noting that Sessions surely spent hours prepping for those hearings with his lawyers. He knew damn well he had met with the Russian ambassador, not once but TWICE. He got tripped up because he wasn't expecting Franken's question and he went off script and got himself in the jackpot. But the bigger question is WHY WOULD HE RISK IT IN THE FIRST PLACE.
03-02-2017 , 10:09 PM
Trump said he had nothing to do w/ Ukraine/RNC platform. JD Gordon, Trumps NatSec advisor just said Trump ordered it last March.

This is on Twitter...can't figure out how to copy and past tweets on my phone. Twitter acct. is: Yeshar.

It's false in any context. It was a declarative statement. The entire statement was "I have been called a surrogate at a time or two in the campaign, and I did not have communications with the Russians." The question is irrelevant to the truth or falseness of this statement. It is false, because he did have communications with the Russians through their ambassador.

You can feign ignorance all you like, and keep posting "no but actually when Al Franken said..." but we will not concede that 2+2=5 or any of the nonsense you're trying to peddle. False is false. Or to put it in Ayn Randian terms you might understand, A equals A.

The trump speech I thought was really good. I like the education overhaul part.

The stats aren't on your side here, obviously.
03-02-2017 , 10:11 PM
All Sessions had to say was "I've had meetings with Russian officials in my capacity on the Armed Services Committee" and he would've been fine. He still would've been confirmed. He lied about this deliberately and strategically. We need to figure out why.

Overthrowing their governments and arming rebel groups every time their people elect someone who isn't amenable to US business interests. Our drug policies also enrich the cartels.
