Professor AAA: To say,
therefore, that no one was misled by Barr[’s] [letter] is simply wrong, even if
one over generously conceded that there was no intention to do so.
Tillman: Barr’s letter
was a summary of principal conclusions. All knew that the full report (less
redactions) would come out in a few weeks’ time. The idea that people were too
stupid to suspend judgment until the later of the two events or that people who
had not suspended their judgment were constitutionally incapable of changing
their minds in light of the full report demeans the common sense of everyman. No
one was misled. My guess is that no one on this list will admit to being so
misled—it is just other people they think were misled. And if a listserv member
tells us they were misled but changed their mind in light of the redacted
report, why do they think others have not done the same?

I posted the following on your 'checks and balances' post, but I really want an answer to my query, so I'm reposting.
AG Barr chose to accept the Report without going into the evidence, stating that it's finished, but the Congress, citing their oversight responsibilities, thinks otherwise. I am confused about the power of Congress to engage in oversight, and would appreciate a clarification. It doesn't exist in the Constitution, unless the power to constitute tribunals means oversight. Wouldn't it be limited to legislative matters? What about separation of powers? Should the power of oversight exist, as it seems to have for some time now, the Congress has no right to violate the Fourth Amendment against unreasonable seizures and searches, requiring them to them limit their inquiries to specific points where they have a basis for concern. Or am I wrong?
You should write me off-line. seth
Don't make the same mistake I did. In hindsight I wish I had checked the reviews before investing. Once your money goes in, it's not coming out. That simple. I called and messaged
their finance department over 20 times, trying to withdraw but not once did it go through. Not easy finding reliable help too with so many wolves posing as recovery agents out there. I did manage to however, even if it was quite unorthodox. In any case, if you have any questions about my experience with BB you can reach me on +15623847738 we can do this together
