Susan Rice: Who, me? I didn't "misuse" any of that intel I got on Trump's people
2017-05-01
[HotAir] Anyone noticing anything different in this version of the tale?

You may recall that when the story first broke Rice spoke to Andrea Mitchell on MSNBC and at least heavily implied that Trump’s initial accusations were all some sort of fever swamp fantasies. (What she actually said was that she never leaked anything.) But before very long the details which emerged told a very different story. Within days it was revealed that she had, in fact, actively sought to have names revealed to her even if they had originally been picked up "incidentally."

Eventually we reached the point where the best they could say was that it appeared that she hadn’t done anything that was technically illegal."

#12  I always got the impression she was hired to lie to the public. Being a black woman she can always pull the racist/sexist card if things ever got too hot.

No need to "pull the racist/sexist card." It is now simply assumed.

#9  Perhaps her thinking is that technically, legally, there is a difference between leaking the intel herself and causing it to be leaked by one or more of her underlings. That little bit of hair splitting just might be enough to keep her out of jail.

#5  I did a bit of research on her and before she joined the Obamas and Clintons she was a very ethical and straight-forward person. Corrupt people will corrupt others.

#4  hadn’t done anything that was technically illegal

Of course. Hitmen only kill people who were already dead when the contract was let, and, in reality, the bullet did the killing.

Likewise, that guy at the state pen only throws the switch. As one of the witnesses at the hangings of the In Cold Blood killers said when a reporter asked "Does the executioner have a name?"

"Yeah. 'We the People...'"

#3  Maybe not, but you certainly "USED" it on American "People"


Is discovery over yet, or is this still in the old coffee maker for later? Reused coffee for a slam dunk case.

#1  In my list of lyingest MF'ers in the Obama admin, she is in the top five, and the top five is CROWDED with only a point or two of full spread as separation between worst and damned close to worst.
