She has her own reality -- "it was the Video!!!!" and "Bergdahl is a Hero"

Thank the Patriot act for all the legal surveillance. Then ask why was the POTUS ,staff and campaign staff spending so much time talking to Russian spy's or oligarch's who are connected to a corrupt Govt. run by Putin. One which wants to hurt the US.

The POTUS is in Putin's pocket.

Certainly not if you include lies by omission into your analysis. Lies by omission seem to work so hard for democrats that maybe they should be put on salary so they can stop being paid all that overtime.

I am waiting to hear exactly which names she received and why she requested them, assuming she actually did ask for them. Until we know those things, how can you be so sure that what she did is illegal?

Unlike you, I want to know what REALLY happened here. Not some peoples' dark suspicions. After all, an obvious tactic for secret agencies to keep secrets is to throw out a misleading bone.
I'm not going to debate someone who defends surveilling a political opponent. Just keep in mind that come 2020 it will be ok for Trump's National Security Adviser to do the same thing.

Why was the POTUS, staff and campaign staff contacting Russians who were spying on the US. How deep is the current POTUS in the pocket of Putin and his underlings.
If the media bothered to report it or if you would have read the reports, you would have learned that the surveillance had nothing to do with Russia.

To see all the right go off with their hair on fire is fun to watch.
wow, this post convinced many of us it's ok to surveil a political opponent <sarcasm> And they were collecting data on all Americans.

The Liberal police state has been exposed!

The old saying is "you reap what you sow". Sew is joining - like sewing a button on a shirt. Sow means scattering seeds for them to grow. So you can reap only the thing you sow, not sew.

Sorry for the OT post

The rightest crazy 15% vs the leftest crazy 15% are running things and would happily kill each other while the center 70% shakes their heads sadly. Its getting to the point that the entirety of both parties at fed level should be impeached with no eligibility for further office. Current districts abolished and redrawn by something neutral (NO gerrymandering). The future congress is 12 total years in DC in house or senate and then you are out for life. No pensions and health insurance comes from the individual market they are so fond of. Let them have the same fun the median person has with health insurance.

Democrats, in spite of their anti-authoritarian posturing, are willing to accept police state-like measures if those measures can be used against people don’t like.

Liberals now actively in SUPPORT of the police state.
