Roger L Simon: Why Did the Democrats Lie So Baldly about the Memo
pjmedia.com ^ | Roger L Simon

Posted on 02/03/2018 4:32:36 AM PST by RoosterRedux

Adam Schiff, Dianne Feinstein, Nancy Pelosi, among seemingly dozens of Democrats, not to mention half the mainstream media, had been warning us for days that the release of the memo authored by Republican members of the House Intelligence Committee would place our national security at grave risk. "Sources and methods" would be revealed.

Now that we have seen the memo, it's clear that was an absolutely bald-faced lie of the most obvious sort. Nothing in it impacts national security in the slightest. There's no mention whatsoever of any "sources and methods."

Unless they were lobotomized, those Democrats and their dependable PR team (aka the media) must have realized they were blatantly lying to the American public. Evidently, they didn't care. How're we now supposed to trust what these people say about anything? Falsus in uno, falsus in omnibus.

*snip*

So what was up here below the surface? It can't just be the "evil party" trying to live up to its nickname, although that certainly happened.

It seems this particular lie was a last line of defense — for now — against a coming potential Armageddon for their party. This memo, bad as it is, is apparently only the first of many, a small percentage of what is to come. And the Democrats know it.

Fear is operative. Maybe panic. An entire weltanschauung is under threat — jobs, friends, self-image, who knows what. If this goes on much longer and much more comes out, some Democrats -—not apparatchik Schiff, needless to say, but others — might have to face reality and say something. A few journalists (not at CNN, but maybe someplace else) might have to report the truth.

I think that by the mid-terms, the Democrats will be in very bad shape. Many resignations, no money, reputation so bad even the media will hesitate to defend them.

“Sources and methods” would be revealed.


Sources and methods were revealed. The FBI is willing to use fabricated campaign documents from the DNC as “sources” of intel. There “method” is to then to lie to the FISA court and present these known fake documents as actual intel.

I wouldn’t bet on it. The media has done a great job to this point in either making the memo “not a big deal” and “overblown” or “damaging to intelligence”.

Unfortunately, most of the media will continue to be lap dogs for the Dems, and they will still have plenty of money from the Soros’ of the world.

If the GOP misses this golden opportunity they are damn fools and deserve their fate. Every one of these people involved in this pile of sewage need to be grilled relentlessly on TV all Summer and into the Fall. Start with Strzok, Page, the Ohrs, Rybicki, McCabe, and work your way over to DOJ and Rosenstein and from there up to Clapper and Brennan then Cheryl MIlls and Huma and move on to Val Jar. Encircle 0bama with testimony and indictments like a noose. By September we should be up to, “What did 0bama know and when did he know it?” The GOP should have over 60 seats in the Senate and pick up 20 or 30 in the House if they play this hand properly. They have a 7 “No Trump” (metaphorically) hand if they don’t screw it up.

...because they (rats) knew that Odungo and Hilda were the originators.
There is much more to be “released”
Shiffty is planning a response to the memo, the official Democratic response...let’s see just how stupid this clown is...

I watched Tucker last night. The Dem rep accused anyone that reads and reports on the memo in a favorable light as being for Putin.

Big Media doesn’t control the courts.

How soon until Manafort or somebody else being squeezed by Mule-er files a lawsuit against his “investigation”, claiming it should be scrapped because it all originated from a false Team-Hillary-generated dossier?

Pretty soon, I think.

And there is more damaging info to come out, a lot more. That’s why the Dems went all-out to try to stop this, if they succeeded they would use the same template for every other upcoming memo.

But they didn’t succeed, and now they’ll be playing defense up to the fall elections (and probably beyond), having to apologize for the outrageous actions of Lynch, Rice, Power, maybe even Obama .... Dems ain’t going nowhere now but backwards

Anything and everything is fair game for libtards and other democrats because only they are worthy of ruling the nation.

At least in their warped minds.

IMHO the Democrats and their rabid supporters were telling the truth about the FISC memo exposing methods and names and thus posing a grave threat to national security.

To quote a past Democratic President from the 1990s “It all depends on what the meaning of is is.”

The FISC memo clearly exposed the internal and external workings of the Democrats and their supporters. A thinking person can no longer doubt that the Democrats of the early 21st Century are no different than the Democrats of the late 19th Century and entire 20th Century!

In the Democrats’ world view the FISC memo is an extreme threat to their political future - immediate, near term, and far term - and as such extraordinary means must be employed to destroy it. And, which is easier - kill the truth before it gets out or try to do it after it gets into the public arena? The FISC memo is a threat to the Democrats as long as ANY person mentioned in the memo and ANY person who supported its destruction is alive and active in national politics!!

That’s how long? Say the next 50 plus years?

By September there should be people in jail or executed by then right?

It seems obvious to me that the evil (D) bastards were completely, cynically relying on their delusional worldview that there isn't enough intelligence out here in flyover to see through, or care about, or do anything in response to their mocking arrogance.

Hard to imagine now that the jig is up they’d continue to try to BS the American public instead of just confessing and taking their sentence like a normal person would.

Unless they were lobotomized

Isn't being lobotomized a requirement to join the Democrat party?

Between the lines of the Qanon posts, one may infer that this Trump frame-up and rife political treachery is only one aspect of what’s being exposed. We’re talking abductions, spirit cooking, human sex slavery, pedophelia, and all manner of gruesome stuff. Cleanup will take all 8 years of Trump’s presidencies.
