"No one can believe what he says." Top Homeland Security Dem calls for FBI briefing on Flynn http://hill.cm/52kTYTi Rare I agree with every word in an NYT editorial, but these aren't normal times: America’s So-Called National Security Adviser https://nyti.ms/2kYSkR6 "From the start, Michael Flynn, a retired army lieutenant general, was a disturbing choice as President Trump’s national security adviser. He is a hothead with extremist views in a critical job that is supposed to build consensus through thoughtful, prudent decision-making. The choice is now growing more unnerving every day. A conspiracy theorist who has stoked dangerous fears about Islam, Mr. Flynn was fired by the Obama administration as head of the Defense Intelligence Agency and led anti-Hillary Clinton chants of “lock her up” at the 2016 Republican Convention. He raised eyebrows by cultivating a mystifyingly cozy relationship with Russia, which the Pentagon considers a major threat. Now we have learned that in the weeks before the inauguration, Mr. Flynn discussed American sanctions on Russia, and areas of possible cooperation, with Moscow’s ambassador to Washington, Sergey Kislyak. They spoke a day before President Obama imposed sanctions on Russia for hacking the Democrats’ computers, probably in an effort to sway the election in Mr. Trump’s favor. Mr. Flynn’s underhanded, possibly illegal message was that the Obama administration was Russia’s adversary, and that would change under Mr. Trump and that any sanctions could be undone. The result seems to be that Russia decided not to retaliate with its own sanctions." Edited by La Pasionaria, Feb 11 2017, 12:59 PM.

Words such as, "suggest", "could", "maybe", "perhaps", are adverbs of probability, by in large. There is a hint of doubt and I see these words a lot in the media so that people like you can latch on to them as something of fact. If you see an adverb of probability such as, "definitely", "obviously", "clearly", and "certainly" then come back when you have something....CONCRETE! Speculation does not cut it. |

I am curious. How much longer do you think that you will continue with your un-American agenda? Is this going to be an always thing with you? Or just until your major butt hurt subsides? |

If you can't name the Washington Post's 9 sources, I can safely assume the reporter got his news from Muslim cabdrivers in Washington DC................ :oyvey |

Those cab drivers are quickly being replaced by Uber drivers as the media's go to news sources. |

He may be out of a job by the time you get out of bed tomorrow: Flynn seen as standing on thin ice; http://thehill.com/policy/national-security/319307-flynn-seen-as-standing-on-thin-ice "Michael Flynn's position as President Trump’s national security adviser appeared to be in peril on Monday as Democrats stepped up their attacks and the White House remained stonily silent."
