It seems all of a sudden that speaking to Russians is now a very serious crime. Should the Media and Dems (same thing) set up a Russian Inquisition Commission to question everyone about whether or not they've ever spoken to a Russian....aka McCarthyism.

The Russian Inquisition Commission is going to be busy.

It would be a shame to see Rocky and Bullwinkle hauled in before a witch hunt committee.

Hey, I've got a great idea! Let's start a thread with an asinine premise, add a truly silly poll, and pretend it's a valid topic.

Check, check and check.

Well done, OP! You checked every box!

I would think that even you would agree that, if Candidate Trump colluded with the Russian government concerning the release of those Wikileaks emails so as to help his campaign (and Lord knows Mr Trump read from them enough at his campaign rallies), then it should be investigated.

As for Sessions et al, it is somewhat akin to Watergate: the impeachment process was not brought up because of those Republican 'plumbers' breaking into the DNC, but the President's role in covering up the break-in.

Mr. Sessions could have avoided any controversy by answering his questions, during his sworn testimony regarding confirmation, in a truthful manner, to wit:

"Yes, I met with representative's of the Russian government on several occasions during Mr. Trump's campaign. No, I did not discuss the sanctions with them".

Thank you Senator Sessions.

I thought that he did the right thing by recusing himself from leading the investigation. I disagree, for now, with those that believe he should resign. I do not agree with many of Mr. Session's opinions, but he was President Trump's choice for Attorney General, and he should so serve, until firm reasons otherwise appear.

Which, they probably will.

What would be the point? Corrupt Trump appointees would just lie about it anyway.

Agree. The kompromat would be funnier, like Mr. Orange's urolagnia video.

No major disagreement but I think the Left Stream Media, Democrats, and some spooks working for CIA or NSA have colluded to try to harm the Trump Presidency. In the end, that's going to be a bigger story than whether Sen Sessions attended a joint Dem/Republican meeting with a Russian ambassador and then forgot about it when he testified to Al Franken
