The Obama fun just never ends.

Perhaps someone should submit FOIA requests for any WH email accounts assigned to "John Miller" or "John Barron".

To be fair drumpf is the response to the Obama presidency. Without Obama there's no prez drumpf.
I dunno, I tend to agree with Bryce that Obama is largely irrelevant to Trump. From what I have seen, Trump voters hate the Republican establishment about as much as they hate Obama or even Clinton. Personally I think Americans need to come together and work on the big mysteries of life, such as how Mitch McConnell survives without his shell. (C'mon, I defy anyone to look at him and not see a turtle.)

No, seems more than obvious why birthers (you know, that 40% of the population) love the birther magnate more than the kenyan muslim, though it's also pretty obvious why your sorts beg to differ.

I do my best to educate the mentally-deficient like buckshat and Rofl on here on a daily basis, free of charge. It's charity and useful, regardless of whether or not they appreciate it.

If that is the case, it would be called "the blind leading the blind" and not charity.

Rice told investigators why she unmasked Trump aides
http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/polit...-trump-aides/ar-AArTtgt?li=BBmkt5R&ocid=ientp

Any of you righties want to eat your words? You might find the 3 letter or less ones easier to chew.

To reference thread title, we always knew Rice was a competent National Security Advisor, unlike the plethora of unqualified cronies the permeate the current White House.

Magnificent word salad from Sarah Sanders-

We've seen illegal leaking of classified materials, including the identities of American citizens unmasked in intelligence reports," Sanders told CNN. "That's why the President called for Congress to investigate this matter and why the Department of Justice and Intelligence Community are doing all they can to stamp out this dangerous trend that undermines our national security.

She forgot to mention that the whole scurrilous attack on Rice was organized to provide cover for Trump's claims about his phones being tapped...

Reminder: Susan Rice Lied About Her Role In The Obama Admin Unmasking Scandal
Susan Rice lied. Devin Nunes did not.

"
On March 22, Rep. Devin Nunes made his ham-fisted disclosure that the Obama administration had conducted incidental surveillance collection and unmasking of Trump administration officials. It was a revelation that ignited widespread criticism from nearly every corner of Washington

“I have seen intelligence reports that clearly show that the president-elect and his team were, I guess, at least monitored,” the House intelligence chairman said at the time. “It looks to me like it was all legally collected, but it was essentially a lot of information on the president-elect and his transition team and what they were doing.” Nunes went on to claim that the information was spread across a number of agencies and had “little or no apparent intelligence value.” "




Perhaps Nunes’ reasons were partisan. Perhaps his framing was exaggerated. We’ll see. But if CNN’s reporting is correct, everything Nunes claimed that day was basically true. Which is a lot more than we can say for others.

On the same day, former National Security Adviser Susan Rice was interviewed by PBS’s Judy Woodruff and asked to respond to Nunes’ accusation that she had unmaskedthose Trump officials in the waning days of the Obama administration. Here is the exchange:

Woodruff: We’ve been following a disclosure by the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, Devin Nunes, that in essence, during the final days of the Obama administration, during the transition, after President Trump had been elected, that he and the people around him may have been caught up in surveillance of foreign individuals in that their identities may have been disclosed. Do you know anything about this?

Rice: I know nothing about this. I was surprised to see reports from Chairman Nunes on that count today.

Sorry buttercup, she lied.
Try this...
Rice's previously undisclosed revelation in a classified setting shines new light on a practice that had come under sharp criticism from the committee chairman, California Rep. Devin Nunes, and President Donald Trump, who previously accused Rice of committing a crime.

But her explanation appears to have satisfied some influential Republicans on the committee, undercutting both Nunes and Trump and raising new questions about whether any Trump associates tried to arrange back-channel discussions with the Russians.

"I didn't hear anything to believe that she did anything illegal," Florida Rep. Tom Rooney, a Republican helping to lead the panel's Russia invesigation, told CNN of Rice's testimony

Like Ivwshane said the unmasking Judy Woodruff asked about was from an incident that occurred 1 year prior Nunes accused Rice of unmasking Trump people during the last days of Obama's term.

Again you royally fail.

which is exactly why everyone should put him on ignore.

As tough as it may be sometimes, I don't wish to ignore that of which I find uncomfortable or contrary to my views. Instead, I want those people to be exposed for all the world to see and to be shamed into the hole from which they came from.

i don't either, it takes either crossing a line of hate/racism or continued ignorance of reality. as James Randi said...

"There exists in society a very special class of persons that I have always referred to as the Believers. These are folks who have chosen to accept a certain religion, philosophy, theory, idea or notion and cling to that belief regardless of any evidence that might, for anyone else, bring it into doubt. They are the ones who encourage and support the fanatics and the frauds of any given age. No amount of evidence, no matter how strong, will bring them any enlightenment."

lol, tajjy is experiencing paroxysms of but but whatabouts and straw men and fake news and the overwhelming weight of his entire reality being one extended gaslit fever dream, all at once. Must be difficult for the poor little fellow, coming to terms with how fucking wrong he is about the entire world in front of his face.

Honestly, quite a few trolls no longer post so I'd say quite well. Then again trump is president:eek:
Speaking of trolls who no longer post, I just looked up a handful of our resident alt-right sociopaths, and most haven't posted in months or longer. Sure, one troll leaves another replaces him, but I hadn't noticed some of the long time trolls had disappeared.

On that note, anyone else kinda miss Incorruptible? Man, nobody did batshit crazy like that man. Not even taj could hold a candle to that, try though he might.

lol We already knew why Rice unmasked the Trump aides - to allow their identities to be safely leaked to the press. Literally everyone with functioning frontal lobes knows this.

And honestly, I don't have a big problem with that. The more light shining on the cockroaches of both parties, the better. The leaker committed a felony, but Rice was within her job description's rights unless she specifically directed or knowingly allowed the leftwing loon leaking it.

Ahh the classic werepossum, state a conspiracy theory based on no evidence and then declare anyone who doesn’t believe it is crazy or stupid. THEN say he’s personally okay with the conspiracy theory he just made up.

Very big of you. :)

She couldn't have known the identities of the subjects of the transcripts before they were unmasked to her, a simple fact that shoots your conspiracy theory right in the ass.
