The point is that if you had read the actual FBI files and 302's you would see that even the FBI interviewers said Flynn wasn't lying but under law enforcement investigations if today you said "I talked to person X on 18 Jan 2016 for 30 minutes" but the investigators find that it was 17 Jan 2016 and it was 40 minutes then you can now be charged with lying to a federal agent. It's not right but it is legal (barely) but still not right.
The fact that you base your belief on "getting" Trump shows you lack intelligence AND integrity. I have served and fought in Central and South America, Bosnia, Iraq, Afghanistan and you epitomize the people of those countries. It's not that I care about your political affiliation but that you base your ideas of "JUSTICE" on violating the Rights of people whose political party is different than yours, exactly the same attitude racists have (one law for thee but not for me) and people like you are a stain on the fabric of America.

I think it's a little too easy to categorize people into particular political affiliation just by the news they watch, or the viewpoints they believe in.
I don't want to say you're the only ones stereotyping people, because I think most of us have been taught to do that when we're growing up.
I certainly have.
This doesn't just happen in the western culture. It's common practice in just about every culture that I've encountered.
While this way of categorizing people helps you avoid saying or doing the wrong things when you're interacting with people from a different race/ cultural background, you'd be surprised how many times one assumes wrong.
I think it's better to just argue the merits of the case presented in front of us. Let the fact speaks for itself. Don't make it about which party you believe in.
Sure most of the news out there are skewed, depending on whoever is controlling the source. But there's enough media channels out there with enough facts for you to gather information and then make an informed judgement.
Don't let your political affiliation limit you to the quality of the news you can obtain, or choose to listen.
As Mulder famously said: " The truth is out there."
You just have to find it. But until you do, don't jump the gun and commit your judgement.
With that being said, I don't know enough about Flynn's case to offer an opinion.
But I think EOD is a bit premature to assume that Ard's opinion has been affected by whichever political party he might be leaning towards.
