Maybe over some beers then... in a couple 'o' three weeks...

I was just curious in specific what issues I need to keep an open mind about.

Only because just by saying that must mean you think that I have not been open minded about something or other.

well, let me feed yer addiction: here's truth:

Yeah... sorry, guys... truly. Firing out on an old issue was ill-advised to say the least where positions are long held and well established...

What I have to remind myself is that what I am feeling now, is what you have felt on HRC, Obama and other other topics for a long time.

What I have to remind myself of is as irrational as I may see/ have seen your fears, is how you now see mine.

What I have to remind myself is that "my truth", or "your truth", is simply that and not "the truth" until the evidence is overwhelming.

So I will do my level best to bear the above in mind in future exchanges separating positions and facts from values and persons.

I only ask that you do the same...

Just because Comey was fired, does that mean ALL current investigations come to a screeching halt?

Or is that just the narrative that's being bounced around?

liberals get to define and redefine terms to suit their narratives.

Oh, boy... convincing cartoons!

Sorry, cal... I'm addicted to the truth... and keeping an open mind.

Conspiracy? Multiple felonies?

Speaking of open minds... what happened to yours?

Petty insults aside exactly what is it you want me to have an open mind about?

I just can't take the chronic outrage on the left very seriously. The right either actually.

But at this particular point the left has gone much more insane than the right did over the last 8 years.

But again give me a few issues over which I should keep an open mind.

I suppose he could've worn an 'I'm with her' T-shirt to the hearing. Sure he was between a rock and a hard place, kind of forced to do some kind of investigation but I think they made sure that it would have no teeth and carry no penalties, even he admitted she lied her ass off.
Again why was nixon run out of office?

Conspiracy? Multiple felonies?

He was caught in a classic, no-win situation. That said... he lost.

In the end he put the peddle to the metal and his boys completed the review of the "new" email treasure trove days prior to the election. Should have done that from the get-go and waited until he had something to announce... and since he did not...

Hard to not think that Comey's reveal was a factor, Steve. Determinative, in and off itself? Can't say that, but since it was not the only false negative floating around, it's hard to dismiss that their cumulative effect was nil. Even in light of his Saturday follow up that the investigation was complete and nothing of value was uncovered.

Be careful on that knife's edge you walking... if you can square up his announcing a reopening of the investigation as "doing his best", then you're a bit dizzy.
