    Nixon wanted to use the FBI and the CIA to get the local police to back off the burglary investigation. They refused. When Nixon want his AG to fire Cox he resigned instead. Our institutions put their integrity, such as it was and is, before helping the President. Then Nixon's own party led by Goldwater told him enough is enough and he resigned.

    Obama wanted to use the FBI and the DOJ and the Intel agencies to block the investigation of Hillary and to spy on Trump and they all said hell yes. We have proof of this coming out everyday no matter how much you want to deny it.

    Comey attacked the integrity of the FBI and Lynch destroyed the integrity of the DOJ on the tarmac in Arizona when she met Bill.

    Nixon wanted the IRS to go after political opponents. Obama wanted Lerner to and she did. That is proven

    This isn't Watergate. Its worse

    As always, if you find anything close to this on Trump we can talk about Trump. If not it is just a deflection from the bad actors here</

    I see these obvious abuses having taken place and it boggles my mind that there are still the useful idiots who convince themselves that it's nothing. Uncle Race, were there a lot of 'usefuls ' like hondo after Watergate who still defended Nixon's actions? (I know there were still plenty who liked Nixon but didn't like his behavior). I'm curious if the average 'Merican 40+ yrs ago was any less brain dead than today and if a large portion of society still had things like independent thoughts... or if the populace was just as mentally enslaved as it is today.

    With all the criminal activity I've read on HH that Obama and Hillary have done. I'm surprised they haven't been indicted and thrown in jail. Maybe someone should launch an investigation to get to the bottom of it.

    And what will you say when it happens?

    And the man calling the shots: (after Georgie boy tells him what to do)

    Indictments? Jail time?

    One more memo from nunes’ staff, or opinion column from the NY Post or Andrew mcccarthy ought to do the trick, don’t you think? This thing is really starting to heat up.

    Trump was abused and victimized by the most brazen work of evil political genius in US history. Someone needs to do something!

    Hopefully it will be here before Cali drops into the abyss so you can see it.

    Yay.

    You must have missed the part about fucking off.

    Try again, dumbfuck Republican apologist faggot.

    You were a FISA court and Patriot Act fan back in the day and now you pretend only one side of the aisle is crooked enough to abuse both of them.

    If you want to be a bigger faggot, Sledog might be able to help. You're already at maximum fag, though.

    Bravo...further proof it was too long for "Hey you are a 'fag' for pointing out I'm dumb" to comprehend...

    Further proof you're a faggot.

    If you just walked around with a cock in your mouth you wouldn't have to spend so much time posting stuff that fits your narrative and ignoring anything that doesn't.

    @dflea after a few adult beverages!
    The flea don't need no booze to engage in homoerotic fantasy.

    Just as the creep don't need no mescaline to belch the non sense that goes from his twisted mind to keyboard. It all comes clean and naturally.

    Its simple...in Watergate you had Republicans that looked at what happened and said they didn't approve.

    Now no matter what laws were broken and whatever happened you won't see a single Democrat look at the same thing and say it was wrong. They will defend their own until the bitter end...hell look at HondoFS, boobs and Cirrhosis of the brain as examples...

    Seriously dood. If there were only one single thing with which I'd take issue with the current republican party, it would be that.

    Other than McCain, and once in a while, depending on just how far off the reservation (sorry Swaye) the administration has gone, another one or two lone Rs standing in the way, this is party politics today. Please regale me with tales of Ryan and the other Hitler youth standing against the tide. Jeebus you could have picked almost any other issue.

    I won't say the Ds are any better, but come on. The former party of Reagan, now the party of dim-witted tea baggers, will support anyfuckingthing that comes out the banana play book.

    There is literally zero room for maneuver on this one.

    PS: if anything, the left has eaten, and will eat, their own. Axe Weinstein or one of the other numerous Hollywood and other placed men who are now being called to the carpet for being too handsy in the past. Those fuckers will ruin anybody, regardless of party affiliation.
    I think it's fair to say Ran Paul isn't a 'yes man' either...
    Agreed. Paul isn't really a republican either. He's a staunch libertarian who knows he has to operate in the real world.

    Since Cirrhosis of the brain is eager to hear what others at National Review have to say here is today's column from not McCarthy (again too long for him and a few others to read/comprehend but makes some great points):

    http://www.nationalreview.com/article/456354/fisa-scandal-clinton-obama-corruption-lawbreaking-whats-next-prosecution

    Makes many of the same points Race made in the initial post on how if you let this go all you do is make everyone more cynical towards govt and the fact laws don't apply to everybody, and you basically endorse this type of behavior going forward for future administrations because there are no consequences for it.

    That's cute how you thought Race came up with that post from his own brain power.

    I read NRO every day. All of it. I don’t read McCarthy and VDH and then run over to HH like a little bitch.

    “Oh! Oh! You have to read this!1! This is bigger than watergate!1!1!”

    Good luck with this “trump is a victim” schtick. Confirms my belief all along is that he is a giant fucking pussy. This couldnt be more advantageous to state rights advocates like me.

    Cynicism about the federal government and thus is a bad precedent? Lol! Didn’t see you being such a strong advocate for the departments of Ag, Ed, energy, HUD, etc. sounds like you are an anti-freedom big government “conservative.”
