People used to consider a lie as being saying something that wasnt true. Now nothing can be a lie unless you can find out what people were thinking at the time. Since you cant prove that lying doesnt exist
How big are your shoulders now from carrying all that water?Good explanation on what constitutes perjury. Bottom line is that the two questions posed to Sessions involved the campaign. Neither meeting with the Russian ambassador involved the campaign.
Consequently, he answered truthfully.

Why would he lie about something that is so easy to confirm?

We can always count on you RWNJ traitors to lie.
We see this all the time on this board - the RWNJ traitors quote only a part of a post and then lie about what it said.
No wonder you love the cheeto in chief's constant lies.

Sure you can, and the tortur . . . er, investigators will find out.People used to consider a lie as being saying something that wasnt true. Now nothing can be a lie unless you can find out what people were thinking at the time. Since you cant prove that lying doesnt exist
Yes, it is. I posted the OP, and this is the conversation.That wasn't the conversation however.....He did not answer truthfully.
He met with the Russian.
He said he did not.
Whether it was a slip or a lie is the issue, and the truth will be found out.
Sure he met with the Ambassador of Russia.....as well as several others around that time. Such as Japan, China, UK to name a few all while as a Senator and on the Armed Services Committee. So yes he did have contact with Russia.
Was is conspiratorial to get his guy in office & mess with the election???? Doubtful
What did Sessions and the Russian guy talk about when they met?
RW media has been all over this issue today, and with a very few exceptions (notably Rush), the comments have been (1) a denial was made, (2) the leakers were blamed, (3) then it was admitted, (4) it was defended as no big deal and as a slip, leading to (5) why deny in the first place?
This is very Nixonesque.
I hope it was a slip of a tongue or min d.
So you don't know.What did Sessions and the Russian guy talk about when they met?
Nothing wrong I assure you. Just ask Sessions!
He couldn't remember but it seems like his memory has returned. HALLELUAH!
The only way the Dems can call this a lie is if they completely ignore both the words and the context of both the question and the answer.
Franken's question, in context, was "did you meet with the Russian guy as a surrogate for Trump?"
Sessions' answer was no.
Now, if someone has proof that in the conversations Sessions acted as a Trump surrogate, then that's a different story.

He said the same thing, only not in your words. He even used the same word - surrogate - that Franken used.The only way the Dems can call this a lie is if they completely ignore both the words and the context of both the question and the answer.

Sessions' answer was no.

No, if Sessions wanted to be truthful, he would have said, "Yes I met with the Russians but it had nothing to do with the Trump campaign."
And much of right wing radio today said Sessions must toe the line along with the other witnesses. Rush was a notable exception.is anyone surprised the "republican" jakey is coming out swinging against a republican......
