If you really want to know, I suggest you start with page one of this thread and read every one of my posts, including the numerous links I've helpfully provided. I just looked over the first 10 pages or so as a quick refresher, and there's some good stuff there. Very informative.
Summary of the parts implicating Obama.
Jan 5 : Comey has a meeting with Obama in the White House. Obama is informed about the Flynn investigation to which he advised Comey to make sure everything is done ‘by the book’.
The end.
I think Obama might get away with this.
Is lying to the FBI a crime?

A phrase that peppers Susan Rice's notes written much later since it is something someone naturally has to emphasize over and over (well maybe if the SOP is to do something shady and illegal and you have to make a point that isn't going to be what is done this time).

This did two things: 1) It placed the blame squarely on Obama if things went South; and 2) It excused their lies, because according to the "book", law enforcement can lie to the subject of an investigation.
Only they never expected anybody to dig far enough to call the predicate into question. As it turns out, they never had a legitimate reason to investigate General Flynn, and they all knew it, so the "book" gives them zero cover here.

Originally posted by Mountain Man View PostLike I said in another thread, you obviously haven't kept up with the facts. I suggest you start on the first page of this thread read the whole thing if you want the nitty gritty, but the short version is that if Sullivan the Corrupt were to sentence General Flynn today, it would be for literally nothing. The charges he pleaded guilty to were withdrawn by the Department of Justice due to overwhelming evidence that the FBI and the Obama White House (including current presidential candidate Handsy Joe Biden) conspired against the General to coerce him into pleading guilty to a crime they knew he didn't commit. So now we're in a situation where a defendant has pleaded guilty to currently non-existent charges. If Sullivan had even an ounce of integrity, he would have accepted the motion to dismiss the second it was presented.
I don't know that Sullivan can actually do anything about it, but I certainly can't blame him for trying.
