"Here are my principal conclusions: 1. Attorney General Barr has deliberately misrepresented Mueller’s report. 2. President Trump has engaged in impeachable conduct. 3. Partisanship has eroded our system of checks and balances. 4. Few members of Congress have read the report,"
Here's MY conclusion of his conclusions...Ignorance is bliss. You can't fix stupid.

I agree. What he’s doing is exposing that we are not in a “democrat vs republican” era. We are in a Deep State vs Trump era.

The only valid reason for disagreeing with Barr on this is if you are just plain anti-trump, no matter what. That is mostly nutcases like the on air CNN staff and Democrats. But there are plenty in the R party as well.

Yeah, he’s a Democrat, for all intents and purposes.

There are lots of Palestinian Christians (among others) who totally-reject a reborn nation of Israel in the Last Days.

I’ll bet this guy was hyperventilating when:

1) President Trump moved the U.S. embassy to Jerusalem and
2) When President Trump said the Golan Heights belong to Israel (I’ll bet this one really got him going)

I will guess he’ll get even more shrill.

My answer to Amash: 1) the report is out. There is no misleading about it. It says what it says and anyone can read it themselves; 2) there is no POTENTIAL obstruction of justice. You either have met the standard and are charged or you have not; 3) the partisan divide only exists when we do not do exactly what the democrats want us to do.

Finally, ok Mr Assmash, let’s play along. Under the standard for what constitutes “obstruction” of justice, you are commenting on matters currently under investigation and review by the DON. You are obstructing justice.

He has opposed Donald Trump from day one.

This guy is as much a Republican as is Bill Kristol.

So now it’s a “bipartisan majority”.

Keep an eye on Romney. They need 20 Republicans. It’s not impossible.

A significant number of Middle Eastern Christians tend to be pan-Arabists on ME issues. This means they’ll side with Arabs and take positions that are antithetical to US interests. Not all, or necessarily even the majority, but some. Off the top of my head, this is a list of a few (non-US citizen) anti-American Arab Christians,

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sirhan_Sirhan
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michel_Aflaq

It’s understandable. When we showed up in Iraq, we did not particularly take their side. The problem is that we couldn’t, with our rules of engagement. The only way we could take their side without greatly increasing our casualty count would be to commit what are today considered war crimes. We’d have to do a Muhammad in reverse to the Muslims in Iraq - convert or die.

Here’s MY principal conclusion: Representative Amash should not “tweet” when he’s not sober....

I’ve read the comments here. Amash is touted as a Christian. What most don’t realize is that far east Christians are NOT the same as US Christians. They are often violent and tend to have a convenient mix of beliefs.

I don't think he's a Democrat. It took me a while, but I think I finally figured out his story:

1. He was first elected in 2010 as one of the original TEA Party candidates.

2. He sound like he's got solid principles in Congress, and votes accordingly.

3. Unfortunately, this means he often ends up being one of a very small number -- like, fewer than five House members -- who votes against bills that pass by huge bi-partisan margins.

4. This might make him a principled man, but also a completely useless legislator.

5. He is clearly incapable of convincing anyone else in Congress to vote his way, so his only way to deflect blame -- and generate any publicity for himself at all -- is to make these outlandish statements against President Trump ... as if it's Trump's fault that the Republicans in Congress are mostly big-government globalists.

Amash is a loon. This will not sit well with what is a very conservative district in west Michigan.

Yeah right! Michigan voters have been doing a”great job” electing people to public office! Takes few minutes to tell us all about ColemanYoung and Jennifer Grandholm for starters.
