After all, you liked the questions that Mueller was going to ask Trump, such as "what were you thinking when you fired Comey", and so I figured you wouldn't mind submitting to the same interrogation.    LOL  grin
Well Rich, maybe you're right and it was just a big "CF", just like Benghazi...

Perhaps Rich, while you're at it, you also point me to the one of nine Benghazi investigations that revealed that it wasn't another CF...

And BTW, I didn't there were 9 different Benghazi investigations by the Congress.  Can you tell me the time lines?  

And don't worry Rod, I've already anticipated that you'll recite the Politifact nonsense, which claims that every separate committee in the House that looked into the Benghazi attack and released a report is a separate "investigation".  They're all under the auspices of the House which contributed to the several reports from 2012 -2014, but it wasn't 9.  I realize though for histrionic purposes it sounds good to say there were 9 different "investigations".  wink
Nine different wild goose chases that wasted millions in taxpayer dollars and accomplished nothing but political theatrics...

According to you then, Mueller has conducted over 100 different investigations into Trump collusion with Russia, and he's come up with zilch.

100+ investigations of Trump compared to 9 of Hilary according to you?  If I was Hilary I'd be thankful it was only 9, because Trump's had to endure over 100 investigations.  wink 
Let's put in perspective, Rich:

And those gulity pleas from Flynn et al and the Russians who have been indicted and since fled and Rudy tellling today about Trump taking the fifth, yup, turned up zilch...

It's time for a congressional investigation into Trump's role and or that of his administration along with any role that the CIA and that of the government contractors that may have been associated with the deaths of American special forcers in Niger now that more details have emerged:

Persons who have the same bias as Rich see what they want to see in these dailycaller stories. That stuff has come into question again and again and that's why we need an independent study(s) which  objectively look at the issue. I heard the same stuff about the assault gun ban that it supposedly didn't work, when, in fact, evidence suggests it did...

Rich,
You don't know what you're talking about:
"In fiscal 2014 through 2017, former President Obama requested $10 million each year for CDC to use to study gun violence and prevention. The GOP-controlled House denied the request each time."

and the 2.5 million figure from the Kleck study:

You're so full of it Rich...

Rich,
The CDC study in question simply reviewed and cited what little existing data, however flawed it was, and presented it. It's a literature search and not their own conclusions, hence the need for more funding and more objective studies.

Rich,
Can YOU read? Kleck is on the committee who co-authored the CDC study. It's a review of the existing data up until that time and that's it. Hence the need for the incremental funding that you don't understand(along with the study itself).
Geez...

Rich, I never said the study didn't exist. I said it reviews data already known at that time and makes the case for more research into it. 
I'm done with the troll for the evening...
