Wonder why. Not.
Per CNN.

(3,283 posts)it comes as no surprise. Mueller is the person they need to question, but Barr should not be allowed to diss the House this way. He must be brought in no matter what they have to do.

(23,002 posts)He shouldn't even be a lawyer. He brings shade to a whole group of professionals. What a putz.

(16,254 posts)he might stumble into several perjury charges if he can't remember which lies they were?
He's so deep in doo-doo, he can't depend on his own memory to keep him safe.

(51,584 posts)Let the Dems subpoena, fine then jail him all with in a week's time. That should set an example. Sen Ervin would have done it during Watergate but he didn't need to since everyone knew he meant business.

(15,082 posts)There would be something truly delicious about knowing that these sanctimonious entitled creeps were in prison.
Do you know what they do when they first walk in the place? It's called a strip search. A cavity search. It's thoroughly degrading.
Then the prison clothes, communal facilities, everything.
A very nice man I used to know at work did a bad thing once (white collar crime) and he went to prison and told me all about it. Even at the minimum security facilities, it's not pretty.

(51,584 posts)Of course he may have been putting on a show like Bill Cosby did to get pity.

(15,082 posts)But he looked like he had aged a whole lot of years since he has been incarcerated. They don't have Lady Clairol in the Big House either!

The question to impeach will have to be answered. A few more leaks from DOJ and it might be a moot point. Mueller and his team are pissed.

(23,002 posts)And let him speak for himself. He can quit the DOJ anytime he wants. Let's GO!

(4,575 posts)once he turned in his report his job was finished. I think they were talking about having Mueller next week? Things certainly seem to be picking up.

(83,739 posts)Rightfully so. That was two years of work by dedicated Americans that believe in the word of law. Barr dismissed their work with a flick of his wrist.
A sweaty, pissy Barr that can't seem to remember anything...an AG that doesn't seem to know the definition of the word "suggest". He actually had to ask. Say what!?
He looked and acted the fool and tool he is. He really isn't fooling anyone.
And the blessed asses of the GOP....sigh. They just wanted to talk about Hillary's emails. Can you believe that? Not Barr's lies. Not Russian intervention. Not Obstruction of justice by their President. Emails.
