Ditto. Also, I didn’t find the cut’n’paste opinion piece to be very informative.

Oh, come _on_-The title was “Corruption”, the OP was a stolen article, and he posted the whole thing, which is against the rules here.

Hi, **Chip**. Let’s set aside the critical question of whether Steele thought there really were pee-pee tapes. Let me walk you through some easy stuff. (This ia n open-book test; feel free to Google for thanwers.)

(a) Was Mueller a Democrat or Republican?  
(b) Was Comey a Democrat or Republican?  
(c) Is Trump a blatant criminal?  
Although about 35% of the country supports Trump, that percentage drops hugely when the sampling is restricted to intelligent well-uniformed people.  
(d) Do you think FBI investigations should be led by stupid or poorly-informed people?

Take your time. We’ll see how you do on this quiz, and then suggest remedial reading for you.

What about those with poor uniforms, or even none at all? 😉

I’ve removed the copyright material from the OP. Since that leaves the OP with no text, I’m closing this thread.

**Chip** , if you want to try this again, please observe fair use rules in quoting published text, and include some of your own words to frame your OP.
