Link?

I actually conflated two things, but his writings do indicate his mind was made up on Obstruction before becoming AG (for the 2nd time).

Barr wrote this WaPo op-ed in 2017 where he backs the Comey firing.

And in June 2018 he sent this unsolicited memo to the DoJ laying out why he believes Mueller is using an incorrect definition of Obstruction and Trump should not he compelled to answer questions.

So basically, KuMcK lied but hoped no one would catch it.
Mistaken doesn't mean Huck lied.
And he corrected his mistake.

Hey contrario, why don't you get Oldbear's definition of "lie" nailed down.

Nunes. What a $250 million snowflake.

You lose 10 credibility points every time you cut and paste this guy.
'As a libertarian I am totally opposed to intrusive government (unless they're intruding on someone I don't like)

Devin Nunes is a ****ing hero

You don't understand his lawsuit which is why you're confused again

It's a snowflake lawsuit. Waaaah, Nunes Cow, waaah.
What exactly qualifies as a snowflake lawsuit? You throw that term around a lot, so I just want to understand what qualifies this lawsuit as one that is snowflake.

Tia
A lot? This is the first time I've ever used that term.
You use the term snowflake in many of your posts. So again, what makes this lawsuit snowflake, as opposed to a normal lawsuit, or non-snowflake lawsuit?

He's crying about his treatment in social media. Call the waaambulance.
So complaining on social media makes one a snowflake? Sorry, just trying to nail down a definition of snowflake so I can apply it appropriately in the future.
He is complaining about how he was treated BY social media.

And you don't need me to define words for you.
The lawsuit is not very solidly presented and doesn't make the point

Of course you're swallowing the NYT spin because you're soft and weak

Twitter and big social need to be classified as publishers
I don't read the NYT. The lawsuit is available online (I have a PACER account).

You want the state to regulate triggering speech on private platforms to protect snowflakes? They'll be here trying to save Doc and Florda and then where will you and your socks post your GIFs?

Go ahead and point out what I "deliberately mis-stated". I said that Barr had prejudged the Obstruction issue before he was nominated, and then I provided a memo Barr wrote before being nominated, in which he seems to have pre-judged the issue of Obstruction. He wrote an op-ed about the issue as well, so instead of lying I was kind of unintentionally double right...

Wrong. You went after Barr for a reasonable opinion regarding Comey which you disliked, then you decided that spewage against Comey was prime material for claiming Barr 'made up his mind about the Mueller Report in advance' when there is absolutely no evidence for that claim.

You got caught lying. Just be a man and admit it, or at least move on. Vomit and spittle down your shirt front is not a good look for you, Huck.

Trump not being compelled to answer questions does not mean Barr "prejudged" the obstruction case. The 1st page of the Barr memo says that a president can be guilty of obstruction if (and then Barr lays out the details).

I believe you are mistaken about Barr prejudging the case. The memo certainly does not support that conclusion, in my opinion.

Could you point out the part of the Barr op-ed that you interpret as "pre-judgement' of the obstruction allegation?

They either have evidence of collusion or obstruction of justice or they don't.

Do you really think they did and just decided to let it slide?!

Nunes. What a $250 million snowflake.

You lose 10 credibility points every time you cut and paste this guy.
'As a libertarian I am totally opposed to intrusive government (unless they're intruding on someone I don't like)

Devin Nunes is a ****ing hero

You don't understand his lawsuit which is why you're confused again

It's a snowflake lawsuit. Waaaah, Nunes Cow, waaah.
What exactly qualifies as a snowflake lawsuit? You throw that term around a lot, so I just want to understand what qualifies this lawsuit as one that is snowflake.

Tia
A lot? This is the first time I've ever used that term.
You use the term snowflake in many of your posts. So again, what makes this lawsuit snowflake, as opposed to a normal lawsuit, or non-snowflake lawsuit?

He's crying about his treatment in social media. Call the waaambulance.
So complaining on social media makes one a snowflake? Sorry, just trying to nail down a definition of snowflake so I can apply it appropriately in the future.
He is complaining about how he was treated BY social media.

And you don't need me to define words for you.
So complaining about how people on social media makes one a snowflake? Again, just trying to set the bar here for future discussions.

What do you mean by "bar"? Prevent?

Deliberate mis-statement is lying.

Go ahead and point out what I "deliberately mis-stated". I said that Barr had prejudged the Obstruction issue before he was nominated, and then I provided a memo Barr wrote before being nominated, in which he seems to have pre-judged the issue of Obstruction. He wrote an op-ed about the issue as well, so instead of lying I was kind of unintentionally double right...

Trump not being compelled to answer questions does not mean Barr "prejudged" the obstruction case. The 1st page of the Barr memo says that a president can be guilty of obstruction if (and then Barr lays out the details).

I believe you are mistaken about Barr prejudging the case. The memo certainly does not support that conclusion, in my opinion.

Could you point out the part of the Barr op-ed that you interpret as "pre-judgement' of the obstruction allegation?

The thing is, Barr seems to have laid out a narrower path to Obstruction in his memo than what is typically thought of, saying in essence that you have to prove the underlying crime to prove obstruction. Barr says that the "corrupt intent" element cannot be satisfied if you can't prove the underlying crime being investigated. That would come as news to Bill Clinton, who was impeached in part for obstructing an investigation into non-criminal acts.

As for the Comey op-ed, the main obstructive act would have been firing Comey after he wouldn't "let go" of the Flynn matter. Since Barr wrote an op-ed backing that firing back in 2017, it stands to reason that he views that act as kosher and not obstructive...in other words he had judged that issue before he was nominated.

Barr is also remembered for supporting the Iran/Contra pardons by H W Bush during his first stint as AG, which effectively killed off a previous Special Counsel investigation right before one of the main participants was to go on trial for lying to Congress. That episode, and his two written signals that he wouldn't let Trump be confronted with Obstruction charges, were probably his strongest resume items for the job in Trump's terms. Why else would he go with a re-tread from the 90s as an AG nomination?

These two posts are not just semantics. You took a clear position as if it were fact, got called out, then provided a justification that was purely opinion based. Just take your medicine and move on.

Could you point out the part of the Barr op-ed that you interpret as "pre-judgement' of the obstruction allegation?

The thing is, Barr seems to have laid out a narrower path to Obstruction in his memo than what is typically thought of, saying in essence that you have to prove the underlying crime to prove obstruction. Barr says that the "corrupt intent" element cannot be satisfied if you can't prove the underlying crime being investigated. That would come as news to Bill Clinton, who was impeached in part for obstructing an investigation into non-criminal acts.

As for the Comey op-ed, the main obstructive act would have been firing Comey after he wouldn't "let go" of the Flynn matter. Since Barr wrote an op-ed backing that firing back in 2017, it stands to reason that he views that act as kosher and not obstructive...in other words he had judged that issue before he was nominated.

Barr is also remembered for supporting the Iran/Contra pardons by H W Bush during his first stint as AG, which effectively killed off a previous Special Counsel investigation right before one of the main participants was to go on trial for lying to Congress. That episode, and his two written signals that he wouldn't let Trump be confronted with Obstruction charges, were probably his strongest resume items for the job in Trump's terms. Why else would he go with a re-tread from the 90s as an AG nomination?
That's not what Barr is saying at all. Inherently bad acts, such as the ones Clinton committed, don't require proof of the underlying crime. Trump's case is different because firing Comey was not a bad act in itself. It would only be evidence of obstruction if Trump were in fact guilty.

Barr made that decision before he was nominated for AG, he even wrote an op-ed about it. It's probably why he was nominated.
Link?

I actually conflated two things, but his writings do indicate his mind was made up on Obstruction before becoming AG (for the 2nd time).

Barr wrote this WaPo op-ed in 2017 where he backs the Comey firing.

And in June 2018 he sent this unsolicited memo to the DoJ laying out why he believes Mueller is using an incorrect definition of Obstruction and Trump should not he compelled to answer questions.

So basically, KuMcK lied but hoped no one would catch it.
Mistaken doesn't mean Huck lied.
Deliberate mis-statement is lying.
Direct HuMcK quote:

"Barr made that decision before he was nominated for AG, he even wrote an op-ed about it. It's probably why he was nominated."

Also HuMcK quote:

Go ahead and point out what I "deliberately mis-stated". I said that Barr had prejudged the Obstruction issue before he was nominated, and then I provided a memo Barr wrote before being nominated, in which he seems to have pre-judged the issue of Obstruction. He wrote an op-ed about the issue as well, so instead of lying I was kind of unintentionally double right...
These two posts are not just semantics. You took a clear position as if it were fact, got called out, then provided a justification that was purely opinion based. Just take your medicine and move on.




Yours is a strange post tbh. I figured the nature of an opinion-editorial (op-ed) made it clear that Barr's position was subjective, his opinion as it were, and my post was a (consensus) interpretation of Barr's opinion. My bad for not spelling it out for y'all I guess, but I did use the word "probably".

I really don't get what's so hard to grasp here, unless y'all are just being obtuse and don't want to see it. Barr wrote 2 documents laying out his (narrowed) position on Obstruction before he was ever AG, it's not a huge stretch to say that those positions probably made him an attractive candidate to someone under investigation for Obstruction.
