In post 7, I set out a chunk of Comey testimony, an exchange with Collins. My contention in that post is that Comey was not responsive to Collin's first question.
In post 25, you disagreed. You asserted that he answered the question.
In post 26, I characterized your disagreement as one that relies on parsing Collin's lengthy query, ignoring it basically. I did insult you, saying your defense of Comey's answer was Clintonesque.
As far as I know, you still find that Comey answered Collins' first question in a responsive way. {I submit that if he had, she would not have needed to ask again, in different terms]
Based on my impression that you believe Comey was responsive to Collins' first question, I think you are a nut case. That doesn't make you evil, and I admit, calling you names does impact the reputation associated with my FR persona. I'll live with that. If you think my demeanor is unacceptable, turn me in to the mods - see the "Report Abuse" button? It's there for a purpose.
- Matthew 1:21 "And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus: for he shall save his people from their sins."
- Mark 2:17 "When Jesus heard it, he saith unto them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance."
- John 8:11 "She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more."
- John 8:34 "Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin."
- Luke 15:7 "I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons, which need no repentance."
- Matthew 18:13-15 "And if so be that he find it, verily I say unto you, he rejoiceth more of that sheep, than of the ninety and nine which went not astray. 14 Even so it is not the will of your Father which is in heaven, that one of these little ones should perish. 15 Moreover if thy brother shall trespass against thee, go and tell him his fault between thee and him alone: if he shall hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother."
- Luke 13:3 "I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish."
- John 3:15 "That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. 16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved."
- John 10:28 "And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand."
Jesus absolutely had no hesitation in telling people they were sinners and needed a saviour.... otherwise they would perish in Hell. If you never tell that to someone, how will they know that they have to make changes in their life? Here is the rationale that Jesus used.... Romans 10:13 "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. 14 How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher? 15 And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!"

Are you serious? If you’re going to copy and paste at least understand what you’re looking at before going to the trouble.
Below is my post #25 - I said he wasn’t asked a question about Flynn. He answered her last question which was about AG Sessions...Why on earth is that so difficult to get understand?
“”Collins didn’t ask him a question about Flynn - he answered the question she asked him about telling AG Sessions about the president’s statement(s)...””

“”calling you names does impact the reputation associated with my FR persona””
HA!
So basically your post 25 was a non sequitur. Got it. I thought you were remarking about my post. My mistake.
