    Nobody misunderstood the question. The left just didnt like the answer. The Dem congress needs to make sure they ask the question they want. It was a simple question, and a simple answer.

    I suspect the Dems want to move the goalpost since all their other hoaxes have failed and the evidence is starting to come to light about how corrupt the obama DOJ and Clinton campaign really was. The desperation is glaring

    He misunderstood or he lied... those are your 2 options, because "I don't know" to the question that was asked can only be one of those 2 options.

    I choose misunderstood, but only if I give Barr the benefit of the doubt, which he certainly doesn't deserve...

    You choose to not even understand the issue, which is certainly your choice...

    No he answered the questioned asked, honestly. There is actual video of this, this is what is truly sad about how desperate the left is with this new claim and how sa it is folks like yourself continue to follow the same lies form the people that promised you a conspiracy.

    I don't follow lies...

    - I speak and understand English
    - I saw the video and read the Crist question and Barr response in print.
    - "I don't know" is a lie if Barr understood the question, because he did know that Mueller had sent him a letter (plus a call) mentioning some issues with the Barr 4 pager.

    Simple unrefutable fact, that we didn't know then, but we do know now...

    I sure wish you could understand the issue at hand, instead of blindly repeating what you've been told...

    But it's equally my fault for believing you capable...

    How was it a lie? I understand the issue, heard the answer. You aren’t quoting the answer.

    Sigh.. NOW you are asking that?? I know you are just messing with me, but I'll hope you are genuinely confused...

    Please go read my post #532 in detail as that fully explains my position on this topic.

    I don't think Dems are understanding that Barr misunderstood Crists question.

    I don't think Barr has admitted he misunderstood Crists question.

    Until they both agree on that simple solution, round and round and round we go.

    No, he didn't. He answered it and explained it perfectly. You are misunderstood or are completely misconstruing what the AG said.

    You may speak English but that does not mean you have a level of understanding when it comes to complex tasks of explanations that are longer than "yes" or "no".

    That is not Bill Barr's fault at all. He was intelligent, direct, concise and explained complex questions that were designed to trick him into false testimony with ease. He is smarter than Nadler and speaks the truth.

    Mueller complained as to how the media represented it.

    Here is Chuck Grassley mic dropping the media.

    Those was no misunderstanding. The question asked was correctly answered. The issue came when the letter came to light and the Dems thought there was a gotcha moment, but the question asked wasn’t the one they apparently really wanted.

    I'm surprised you don't think we should have elected Obama but we certainly need to fight foreign interference with election. I think we should go back to paper ballots.

    Robust computerized system with a paper trail. Possibly standardized across the country.

    How so? He said he didn’t know and assumed that it might be that not enough was covered in his letter.

    He misunderstood the question... I'm not misconstruing what Barr said, just that it didn't accurately answer the question Crist asked him...

    Barr's answer was perfect for the eventual follow-up question (that wasn't yet asked)..

    Barr answered the question he heard in his mind, not the question that was asked...

    Sort of too bad, but accuracy matters when you are in front of Congress... He seems to have no problem having people re-ask their questions... he should have done so here...

    OK, let's try another angle...

    WHAT answer do you think Crist was aiming to get from Barr?? That should be simple enough...

    I have no idea, how am I and Barr suppose to guess what Crist meant to ask? We can only answer the question asked. How was Barr’s answer not correct, and actually went further with making the assumption?

    Only according to you and other progressives that are not dealing with the facts. You hate Barr, I get it. You are nervous about what he is going to do to the Democrats, I get it. Frankly, they deserve it. If they broke the law, then bring on the indictments.

    Sorry you have an issue with it.

    Yes like I said, it doesn’t address the issue. It’s a freaking civil case! Do you know what an indictment is and how it has no relation to a civil case!?

    LMAO... nice try slick... It's sort of Barr's JOB as a witness to know what the question is before answering....

    Read slowly and carefully.

    His question, long though it was, was meant to get a single piece of information from AG Barr....

    Were the REPORTS that the Office of the SC had any issues with the Barr 4 page summary accurate?

    THAT'S ALL THE QUESTION WAS!!! WERE......REPORTS...... ACCURATE - Confirm or deny the REPORTS.

    - Not whether it was Mueller personally or people on his team.

    and

    - Not what specific issues Mueller or people on his team might have had with the summary.

    WHAT WERE THOSE REPORTS REFERENCING???

    The answer is Yes, those reports were accurate and were most likely referencing a letter Bob Mueller sent to the AG office on 3/27.

    I'm just mostly disappointed with the lack of basic understanding of the English language on an English language website.

    If you have read along with my reasoning, I'm saying Barr DID NOT lie...

    Barr has an excuse... he was trying to parse a long question live and in front of the TV cameras and he just did a poor job.

    You and your ilk does not...

    His answer was he had no idea what they were referencing since they were unnamed people asserting them, but assumed it was because it was because not enough was in his summary.

    It’s the job of the witness to know what the questioner actually meant ? Hahaha no it’s to answer the question, he did. It wasn’t a lie

    Better every county independent with paper ballots and each county phoning the total in to the secretary of state for each state. Centralized is a bigger plum to hack.
