Hahahahaha.

Choosing when interaction with me is beneficial to you doesn’t cut it. I don’t want to hear you or anyone else crying the next time I make a post that references something you said or did.

I’m laughing at the fact that he had a position in government that was titled as “UK Ministry Of Defense charged with the UFO research and sightings.” It had nothing to do with you other than you’re the one who said it. Would it help if I removed the “Jetrell Fo” from the “Jetrell Fo said” part of the quote?

If you can’t understand the difference between that and your bitching in your deleted thread about your interpretation of the way me and Warbler act towards you or other members of the forum…well of course you don’t, so never mind. Just report me next time.

Blah blah blah. If you were laughing at the Nick Pope thing specify it in your post. I don’t know what the actual position he had was called and I didn’t go searching for it.

You want me to ignore you, you want me not even to reference you or respond to you, yet you respond to any post of mine that might benefit your sense of “humor” or what not. Either ignore me completely or just be as civil as it takes for us to get by without all the fuss.

I wasn’t laughing at you, I was laughing that he had that job, whatever it is called.

Yeah but you don’t ignore me at all, in fact you keep responding to nearly everything I post, so I don’t know why I should have to ignore you completely. I still try to avoid responding to most of your posts, mainly because it just devolves into several pages of pointless bickering no matter who responded to you.

If you can ignore me completely, stay out of my threads, and never respond to any of my posts, I will happily do the same. If not, I’ll continue to not respond to you most of the time but feel no obligation to never respond to you or do anything you might suggest I do.

I won’t respond to your next post on the matter so have fun.

I wanted to do this via pm but since you figured you had to lash out openly then I’ll just keep it here. Don’t get me wrong, I know I can be a pain and I know I can be an asshole but I am no less a real person than you are and I want us to stop all of this pointless posturing for nothing.

I don’t think it is complicated in any way and both of us should be able to respond to each others information in a civilized manner. I don’t know you personally and I’m not asking to either but I think this stupid pointless whatever it is has gone on long enough. Again, you are a real person and I just want to be able to treat you as such even if we might disagree on things.

So fine, your quirky, deafeningly opinionated, sometimes funny, and you’ve done some fan edits. Great, that’s cool, that I can deal with. Let’s just be civil, not be purposely hurtful because we feel the other actually deserves it, and just talk about stuff on the board.

And then there’s this.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/post-politics/wp/2017/05/10/comey-sought-more-money-for-russia-probe-days-before-he-was-fired-officials-say/?utm_term=.60d21bdc5fbb

Last week, then-FBI Director James B. Comey requested more resources from the Justice Department for his bureau’s investigation into collusion between the Trump campaign and the Russian government, according to two officials with knowledge of the discussion.

Comey, who was fired by President Trump on Tuesday, made the request in a meeting last week with Rod J. Rosenstein, the deputy attorney general, and briefed the chair and Democratic ranking member of the Senate Intelligence Committee on Monday, the officials said.

The person that wrote that article is a hack. No offense to you Frink. Most everyone in the real world knew this moment was probably coming for James Comey. Both parties had numerous people that said it needed to happen. What Trump says or doesn’t say they are always going to call him a liar with out actually looking at the real reason why they are taking such petty shots.

It sucks

So it’s just coincidence that the man who led the “Lock Her Up” chants fires the guy who was running the investigation for doing it poorly on the cusp of the Russia investigation going full steam ahead, while mentioning in the letter firing the man that he greatly appreciated not being investigated himself. Cool, cool.

He thanked the man for not investigating him while firing him for investigating something he was convinced was worth jailing Hillary over. And his opinion changed in the last week about his usefulness. If Trump is going to fire everyone who is incompetent, he’s got a lot of work to do.

Does quitting count as a firing?

President Donald Trump weighed firing his FBI director for more than a week. When he finally pulled the trigger Tuesday afternoon, he didn’t call James Comey. He sent his longtime private security guard to deliver the termination letter in a manila folder to FBI headquarters.

He had grown enraged by the Russia investigation, two advisers said, frustrated by his inability to control the mushrooming narrative around Russia. He repeatedly asked aides why the Russia investigation wouldn’t disappear and demanded they speak out for him. He would sometimes scream at television clips about the probe, one adviser said.

Trump’s firing of the high-profile FBI director on the 110th day after the president took office marked another sudden turn for an administration that has fired its acting attorney general, national security adviser and now its FBI director, whom Trump had praised until recent weeks and even blew a kiss to during a January appearance.

The news stunned Comey, who saw news of his dismissal on TV while speaking inside the FBI office in Los Angeles. It startled all but the uppermost ring of White House advisers, who said grumbling about Comey hadn’t dominated their own morning senior staff meetings. Other top officials learned just before it happened and were unaware Trump was considering firing Comey. “Nobody really knew,” one senior White House official said. “Our phones all buzzed and people said, ‘What?’”

He fired him for investigating Hillary? Why? Is it because he didn’t find enough on Hillary to satisfy Trump?

Trump is not an old bureaucrat and he just put the rest of the Government on notice of it. There was a very large bipartisan support for Comey’s dismissal for a good while now. I also don’t believe, whatever the facts are, that we are getting the entire picture at present.

If you think they’re not preparing already for an interim replacement so the Russian investigation can continue and they can get back to work you’d be mistaken I think.

Well, the only reasons we have been given are the ones in relevant documents. We have the official announcement which says he was fired over Emailghazi–it’s unclear if it was because he acted unprofessionally or because he didn’t act unprofessionally enough. And we have an internal memo which says Trump had decided to fire Comey a while ago and asked the AG’s office to come up with a pretext, which was presumably later decided to be Emailgazi. Other than that, all you have is speculation. Certainly a lot of that speculation seems more credible than the official announcement.

I think the best part about Trump is how hard he’s trying to discredit himself. Nobody does as good a job of making him look like an idiot than he does.

That said, I’m enjoying the live Watergate reenactment. It’s like one of those living history museums.

At least he didn’t fire the entire FBI.
