Back on topic. The lie will have to come from Comey, if such a memo exists, either way. Comey will not testify, in an open hearing, that he committed a crime, especially if Comey actually believed President Trump asked Comey to stop the investigation into Flynn.
Who ever leaked, this alleged memo, had to have done it without Comey's knowledge. I don't believe Comey is so stupid to implicate himself, as head of the FBI, in a crime.

The U.S. was routinely monitoring communications of the Russian ambassador. He spoke to Mike Flynn. Thus, "Obama wiretapped Trump".
I guess intelligence agencies are supposed to turn off the eavesdropping when Russian spies talk to anyone on Trump's team?

There are rules in place when an American is involved in one of these eavesdroppings.
Apparently, like another person just posted, the President (in this case Obama) is above the law. And not only that, the name of the American was leaked!
Good luck when laws are selectively enforced. Seems to happen a lot when Democrats are involved...Hillary anyone?
Trump deniers need to get off their high horses. There be planks in your own eyes.

Thanks for enlightening me.

Obama set a precedent on law interpretation.
Besides that, the president is boss over DOJ, FBI, and CIA - it just seems like they want to control the world for their benefit (and frequently do).

He will want an open hearing, so he can hide behind the 'national security and top secret excuse'.

And how any of this makes what Trump tweeted somehow true in your mind still eludes me.
The freaking White House isn't defending this but you guys are still figuring out ways that your boy was the victim of something other than his own stupidity.
He read a false news story and then tweeted it out. You keep saying there is more to it than that. Others state he is just rope a doping his opponents. But many months and many other self inflicted wounds later, it stands about where it stood the day it broke. Despite all the efforts of his supporters here to backfill.
Just like the "I won the popular vote except for millions of illegal votes" tweet. Except, no one bothers too much with that since even his most ardent supporters understand how utterly false a statement it was.
Eventually, I think even you will tire of his nonstop drama and admit that he's in WAY over his head.

Oh yeah please remind me just what was so murderous or defamatory to you from a " tweet". Would impeachment or guillotine be acceptable
punishment for this tweet.

I point out how far up Trump's ass some here are and somehow it equates with demanding impeachment or the death penalty?
Who's unhinged in this conversation?
Calm down. Sorry I'm not in the bunker waiting to swallow cyanide with you, Eva.

"No administration has accomplished more in the first 90 days" 4/24
"All pipelines that are coming into this country from now on has to be American steel" 4/20
"The NSA and FBI tell Congress that Russia did not influence electoral process" 3/20
"The murder rate in our country is the highest it's been in 47 years" 2/8
All demonstrably false.
"How low has President Obama gone to tapp(sic) my phones during the very sacred election process. This is Nixon/Watergate. Bad (or sick) guy!" 3/4 (one of a storm of false tweets on this subject)
"In addition to winning the electoral college in a landslide(editorial note: his electoral college total was in the lower quartile), I won the popular vote if you deduct the millions of people who voted illegally" 11/27/16
Both ridiculous and abandoned by Trump shortly after making them.

Where is the beef?
It is a shame that many in here still believes in what MSM dishes out every day. They don't question sources and methods. What a poor handicappers they must be. Sad. Media gets it right only 18% of times. That I believe is their favorable rating by people. Trump between 35 and 45%. Probabiliies and percentages! Lol.

That's it!!!! This is what has your panties in a knot. Just a bunch of one liners, much like yourself. None of them impeachable.

I'll ask a second time. Who is calling for impeachment? It wasn't me.
And I'll point out a second time: I'm mocking his drooling supporters who are seemingly incapable of finding fault in anything he says or does.
If that doesn't describe you, why did you waste all this time responding to me?

You are mocking OBama supporters?
To clarify, not that we don't find fault, just that we don't care.
The gloves are off. I support sinking to the level of the left to fight them.
I support sinking a lot lower if need be.

This is one poll that definitely needs an "All" button.
