Are we to believe that Obama, Bush, Clinton and every president before them since the FBI was started never leaned on federal investigators?

No... J. Edgar Hoover had all the dirt on everyone. He used it well to get what he wanted.

Even though the quote wasn't about Trump, I tend to believe Comey was conducting to what he thought amounted to an investigation int Trump. At certain points in an investigation, you don't want to tip your hand. Not yet. Do it too soon and the investigation may simply be over.

Oh, please. The memo is REAL - and there are a whole bunch more of them. Much as you would wish it not to be so - this is REAL and FACTUAL NEWS.

The only contortions since January 21 have been DJT's.

Ok, this is that stupid pic that Jack Probesic or however you spell his last name put up on his Twitter. The problem with it is that he didn't supply the link, so people had to go look for it. One has to wonder why he didn't supply the link.

The reason is: It had nothing to do with Trump. That was when Comey was under oath and he was asked about if the DOJ and the AG asked him to stop any investigation.

Here's the transcript: http://www.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/1705/03/wolf.02.html

If we are going to throw facts in to liberals' faces, it has to be actual facts pertaining to the actual issue, not something that has nothing at all to do with the issue.

Let's not act like the idiots in the media who believe some memo that was read to them over the phone by some random associate of Comey...or so they claim. The left can spew out their fantasy fairy land horsecrap.

We need to stick to relevant facts.

Why would mightleavenyc create a thread like this, talking in absolutes...as if they are absolutely certain of what they're talking about....when they aren't?!

The truth will come out. Both the Senate and House committees have requested that Comey testify, as well as "all Comey memos" be sent over.

So either way, we will all know the truth here soon enough. But creating a new post like this, claiming Comey was not told to stop the investigation, before the facts are out, is just dumb.

Great job snipping really narrowly to leave the context out that doesn't support your argument! You are a loyal sheeple and Dear Leader is very pleased with your spin efforts.

May not have told Comey directly but evidently Comey didn't get the hint.

Here it is straight from the horses mouth:

Enough to commit perjury before a congressional investigating panel. Or the Clinton Crime Ring is lying and the memo doesn't say what they say it does, or it never existed.

Kind of a big hole they have dug for themselves here, after going ALL IN.

This should absolutely put this to rest. Trump did not attempt to obstruct justice.
