Anyone else w liberal FB friends seeing

Post by RiverguyVT »

...labored use of the Chewbacca Defense re: the Memo?

The “yes but..” stuff is so convoluted & funny.

I have one cousin in Sacramento who is going batschitt bonkers right now.

This memo release is nazism, fascist, nationalist, racist, Russian, Putinesque and several other -isms.

I haven't seen her this upset since her ex-husband left her for her best friend.
I only post using 100% recycled electrons.

What AG said.

It’s simple. D’s created a fake dossier, and then used that as a means to spy on opponent.
Period.

The long ramblings justifying and nuancing .... it’s hilarious.

Yes, its basically trying to take a simple story and make it complicated by adding in a bunch of non-related and irrelevant information. This is designed to make the average MSM viewer (or FB reader in this case) so confused by the whole story that they either come to the wrong conclusion or they just tune it all out.

The left cannot allow a majority of Americans to understand that Obama and the Democrats abused the FISA system to spy on the opposition party's Presidential candidate because they know in their heart or hearts that this truly is worse than Watergate.

Yep, they're fake news. Had the people on that weaponized the government explaining how it's not weaponized. It's a crime against our democracy.

Agree. But the democrats and the media are unwilling to concede that the Page FISA warrant was obtained under false pretenses. They want to keep saying this has nothing to do with "Russia", and it doesn't in the broader scheme if things. But they won't admit that the FBI and DOJ went rogue on this one, and the rationale for doing so was political, specifically an anti-Trump bias.

Fair points. And if you want to keep it fair, then you have to be amazed at someone saying the memo vindicates Trump. That is one of the most ridiculous things anyone has said.

How does it not? Russia is fake news, the memo makes that clear. It was concocted by Obama to delegitimize Trump and cripple him with an investigation before he was even sworn in. Total political tyranny, Trump is certainly vindicated.

That’s some good misleading info. Not surprising of course.
All FISA judge are appointed to that court by the Chief Justice. You know, super liberal John Roberts.

Where are you going with this? It's been alleged that they shopped around their warrant until they found a judge who would approve. We don't know what judge that was, but the one who has subsequently recused himself was...appointed to the DC District Court by Obama. Several others were appointed to federal courts by Democrats.

1. Nunes says something which exposes corruption in Obama DOJ: liar.
1. Nunes says it doesn't invalidate investigation: "straight shooter"

Not surprisingly, the claim that 10 of the 11 judges were Obama appointees is BS also.

You've got 1 Reagan nominee, 1 HW Bush nominee, 2 Clinton nominees, 5 GW nominees, and 2 Obama nominees.

As for shopping around? They rotate their duties. Come back when the warrants and re-authorizations were all done by the 2 Obama folks, then you can start to have a basis for that conspiracy theory. The TMO2 claim is just more nonsense.

That's the Chewbacca defense. The fact is no dossier then no FICA warrant. That's a fact, no other evidence matters.
