“If President Obama was truly concerned about General Flynn, why didn’t they suspend his security clearance, which they approved just months earlier?” Mr. Spicer said during his daily press briefing.

“Not only did they reaffirm it, but they took no steps to suspend it,” Mr. Spicer said. He said that decision casts doubt on how vigorous Mr. Obama’s warning to Mr. Trump was during their meeting in November.

I just saw “evidence” and “Spicer” in the same post.

It’s in the fracking article I quoted from … read it would you, it’s not something I am stating myself, yeesh.

Better yet, if you’re too lazy to read, watch then …

A quote from Spicer is not evidence in any sense of the word. We understand you’re not stating it yourself. After all, you’re a Bernie supporter!

What is wrong with you? Just keep pounding away don’t you? Can’t fricking just stop can you? The New York Times wrote the fricking article, ask them, NOT me.

And if you want fricking proof they wrote the damn article click the link like I suggested in the first damn place.

Not is isn’t. You quoted two sentences by Sean Spicer that are not backed up by any evidence in his words, your words, in the article, or anywhere I can find.

^ Do you not think language like that sounds a bit dickish considering you didn’t understand my post, or Sean Spicer’s words, or the article you posted. Me saying “two plus two, equals five” doesn’t become true because somebody quotes an article of me saying it. If you can find some evidence to support the two sentences you picked out then great, that’s all I asked for.

On a side note, when Spicer says “security clearance” he means the maximum possible level of clearance as Trump has tweeted. Not the minimum level of clearance that evidence seems to show.

But you pulled out those two quotes from it. The only two quotes that don’t seem to have any supporting evidence. Which is why I was asking for it.

Also, I’m confused how an article about fracking is relevant.

Don’t you think it’s a bit dickish to keep hounding on someone that said they quoted it from the article, linked to the article the quote was in, and then had to explain that if you needed more you should ask the New York Times, the folks that wrote the article?

I’m not sure how much clearer I need to be. I would guess there are other articles on the same matter elsewhere, google them instead of harassing me because you think Sean Spicer is a fool.

A simpler conversation flowchart would go something like:

J: [Outrageous quote from non-credible source without any evidence]
R: Evidence?
J: There’s no evidence supporting this quote at all. I was just posting the quote. It’s not something I am stating myself, yeesh.

The same conclusion reached without spiraling out of control.

I’m not “hounding” you. All you had to say was “I’ve no idea”. I did Google the sentences you picked out and found no evidence for them, that’s why I asked you as you seemed think them important enough to quote. Never mind.

Looks like the FBI investigation will wrap itself up by next week. Turns out there was no fire under all that smoke after all.

I don’t think that is what this means but I’m not in the loop there so I cannot speak for them.

Firing people always makes the problem go away.

Trumpy better hope Comey doesn’t have a certain video, or knows someone who does. 😉

I really never wanted to re-live the Watergate days. But now I’m wishing it ultimately boiled down to a matter of burglary.

Way to recuse yourself from all things related to the Russia investigation, Jefferson, after you got caught misleading Congress on the matter.
