Quote
If Michael Flynn's 'crime' is all Robert Mueller has, it is time to move on
Transitions include the president-elect talking to foreign officials. That's not treason; that's the job description.

On Friday, President Trump’s former national security adviser, Michael Flynn, pleaded guilty to lying to federal investigators about a perfectly legal conversation he had during the presidential transition with then-Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak.

Flynn should not have lied, and why he chose to remains a mystery, but the substance of the single-count indictment against Flynn shows that special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation has strayed far from its original purpose.

We have come down quite a way from the hyperventilation about Russia “hacking the election” a year ago. What happened to Democratic Sen. Mark Warner’s claim, later promoted by Hillary Clinton, that there were 1,000 Russian agents planting anti-Hillary fake news stories in key swing states? Or that Russians had delivered Wisconsin to Trump? All the conspiracy theorists have so far are a few Facebook ads that can’t credibly be shown to have changed even one vote.....

Hell no, let's don't put an end to it.

Let's continue to talk of it through the next presidential election; let's bore people to death about the endless whining of Democrats, liberals, and primitives.

Let's keep it up.

If it turns out the only crime was the lying to the feds, then a pardon is called for. Scooter Libby's case set the precedent for that.

"Russian Collusion" is the Ds' and Progs' Birtherism. And should be encouraged the way Obama baited the Birthers.
