they were true.  Now, if I had been implying that I could fly by flapping my arms, I would have been lying.  If I had implied that I was a carrier-qualified fighter pilot, I would have been lying.  When I said I flew the airplanes, I did fly the airplanes.  I had someone in my headphones seated right behind me guiding me, but I was flying the airplanes.  The airplane was moving up and down, side to side, landing and taking off by the movements of my hands and feet.  I was flying the aircraft.  Again... your inference your problem.

and I answered.  Watergate involved the crime of breaking and entering.  that is ONE way it was not worse than watergate.  There are many more, but I will not share them with you - just to piss you off!

It's NOT my opinion that the Obama/Biden administration spied on BOTH the Trump campaign as well as the Trump presidency, or were you unaware of that fact?
Watergate ONLY involved the bugging of a DNC office and it NEVER spied on a sitting president, DID IT?

So how was what Obama and Biden did NOT worse than that?
I'd LOVE to hear you spin THAT fact like a whirling dervish while laughing like an idiot over those crimes!

I was on the controls of a G5 once.  I actually flew it.  When I describe it to others I do not say I was able to fly it.  You said you were able to fly a helicopter.  What you did was no different than what I did with the G5.

I am not spinning.  I made a statement in good faith.  I went on to explain how my experience was a brief cursory familiarization with naval aviation but you want to make a federal case out of it.  I was behind the controls of three different aircraft and flew all three of them.  I landed two of them and took off in two of them.  That is the extent of my experience in aircraft.  That is all I ever said was the extent of my experience with aircraft.  I am a ship driver... not a jet jockey or a rotorhead.

From the CNN story...

“To be clear, the impeachment inquiry is not reliant on the FBI’s FD-1023. It is based on a large record of evidence, including bank records and witness testimony, revealing that Joe Biden knew of and participated in his family’s business dealings,”

Ooops...

How could the Obama or Biden administrations spy on the Trump administration?  They were not contemporaneous.

White House Spied On Trump And Lied About It, Says CNN — Is This Worse Than Richard Nixon?
IBD  09/19/2017

Wiretapping: The US government under Obama wiretapped former Trump campaign Chair Paul Manafort in New York's Trump Tower under "secret court orders before and after the election," CNN reported, citing "three sources familiar with the investigation."  CNN — which, to its credit, broke the wiretapping story — was among the worst in the mainstream media. Actor James Woods, active on Twitter, compared the shifting headlines from CNN on the allegations over the past six months:

September 18, 2017: "Exclusive: US government wiretapped former Trump campaign chairman" That about says it all. And on that last headline, it's important to note that not only was Manafort working out of Trump Tower, he was living there. So the claim means Trump was 100% correct about being wiretapped. This is more than just "I told you so." The entire investigation into alleged Trump campaign ties to Russian meddling in the 2016 presidential election appears to center on the wiretaps of Manafort, whose consulting work included some foreign political groups, including in Ukraine.Even so, top US intelligence officials have steadfastly and adamantly denied any wiretap of Trump."With respect to the president's tweets about alleged wiretapping directed at him by the prior administration, I have no information that supports those tweets, and we have looked carefully inside the FBI," former FBI Director Comey told the House Intelligence Committee last March. Comey was under oath. National Intelligence Director Clapper also denied any wiretap, telling NBC in March that he would have known about a "court order on something like this." Clapper denied to Congress that any of the intelligence agencies he oversaw wiretapped Trump, and said the FBI did not get a court order from the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISA) — the only court that can grant a domestic wiretap on grounds of national security — to tap Trump's phones. As the CNN report said, "The government snooping continued into early this year, including a period when Manafort was known to talk to President Trump."And the wiretaps were used to feed the ongoing investigation of Robert Mueller of the Trump campaign's alleged ties to Russian interference in the election. The Justice Department was then headed by Loretta Lynch — one of the most politicized Attorneys-General in US history, known for repeatedly bending the truth in her public comments. So it's not a stretch to think that Obama encouraged Lynch to go after Trump. He had every reason to do so, given that Hillary at the time seemed to be the only hope for Obama's progressive legacy to live on."It was the Comey-led FBI in the Lynch-led DOJ, in the Obama presidency, that reportedly used the FISA Court to obtain a warrant, quite possibly based on the phony (Russian) dossier, that has provided material to get Manafort and pressure him to find something to squeal about and catch a higher-up," wrote Thomas Lifson at the American Thinker. "The legitimacy of that warrant now is in question."
