I thought I heard he had done this more than 80 times? This is not some random person, he was a former fbi Director. He and bill Barr are 5 years apart in age. Barr swatted those clowns away with ease in the same environment.

I was actually offered an opportunity to testify before congress on the state of cybersecurity in our industry. I passed almost before the question was fully asked. There's no way I'll ever get up and testify before congress and all the gotcha questions and soundbite politics. Neither side would be honestly asking questions in order to better their understanding but simply trying to score political points against the others. No way was I volunteering for that.
Mueller has been in that environment numerous times and managed to handle it. I feel sorry for the guy personally. He is obviously not as sharp as he once was and by Democrats, either knowingly or unwittingly, taking advantage of him have destroyed his once stellar reputation. With liberals the individual is expendable if they think it advances the liberal collective.
Having read the report and being a prosecutor, there is a lot there that I would consider taking a stab at it...no conviction is ever guaranteed given the burden of the state.
I doubt very seriously any prosecutor worth his salt would remotely consider taking that case to trail given the evidence available. The case would be kicked out of court before it ever made it to trail and no worthy prosecutor is going to take that embarrassment.
That last paragraph is exactly what I get from the investigators on my prosecutions.
IMO, the decision as to whether or not to prosecute the President for anything was properly left up to his reporting supervisors...the AG and Rosenstein.
Wasn’t one of the criticisms of Comey in the Hillary email deal that he made public recommendations instead of referring his findings to the AG for that determination?
Seems it was.
Doubt all you’d like.
I imagine I have more experience and knowledge regarding prosecutorial decision making than you do.
I'm sure you do but you are forgetting prosecutors at that level have much higher aspirations and can not take the risk of ruining their career by taking the case and losing in a humiliating fashion.
I’m not forgetting anything.
No prosecutor (to use your term) worth his salt only prosecutes cases he believes are guaranteed convictions with no risk of losing....even in a humiliating fashion.
I know I’m not gonna change your mind or even get you to consider the possibility that you are in error.
I’m cool with that.
Mueller made the appointments subject to approval of Rosenstein.
Well as Reagan said about the Russians:
Trust....but verify.
I could have been making all of that up.
You could have, but blind bullshittery isn't your normal style.
Not sure that last paragraph is a valid comparison. Comey was strictly a law enforcement officer (ie. cop). Pretty sure the FBI doesn't bring matters before grand juries, or issue bills of information. On the other hand, Mueller pretty much occupied the position of US Attorney, and actually signed indictments as "Special Counsel."
One last thing. In watching Mueller, he certainly came across as a tired old man, but he also came across as an attorney burnt out on a case that he knows is a dog, and fed up with his clients (ie. anti-Trumpers) because they insisted on a result that the facts simply didn't support (I know, I fire at least one such client annually).
You do use your tongue prettier than a $20 whore.
The comparison is very apt with regards to his reporting on the President specifically. He was tasked with issuing a confidential report to DOJ under OLC guidance that no indictments would be made against a sitting President. He was tasked with making either indictment or impeachment recommendations.
Re: Last paragraph. Anti-Trumpers weren't his clients. He was named by a Trump appointees. He came off yesterday to me as an attorney that was refusing to let either the Anti-Trumpers or the Trump Diety Suffers use his work product as if he was their attorney.
They got what they wanted out of Mueller -- his resume'.
Yet, Formerly Fat But Now Just Plump Nadler is out today saying Mueller proved that Trump colluded with Russia. Page 2 of the report Mueller won't admit writing but constantly referring to says much different than FFBNJP Nadler.
Turns out Mueller was just Trump's little bitch.
So with this IG report coming out, I wanted to revisit some of the extraordinary judgment we can always count on from you two.
what should we expect?
