Stupid BURNS: Keith Olbermann posts Comey statement, proves his reading comprehension is crap

Huh?

Please note Comey's grammar here. This phrasing confirms there were links between the Trump campaign and the Russian government. No "if." pic.twitter.com/f6Mpx3qgCc

Where does he get this stuff?

We have read and re-read the statement that Keith seems to think includes a ‘GOTCHA,’ and we’re just not seeing any gotcha. Apparently he thinks the word “any” is relevant; guess when you’re desperate for something to be true you’ll create meanings of words and invent context.

From a legal – and grammatical – standpoint, this declares an investigation is taking place. Does not affirm anything more.

And Comey said as much, there is an investigation taking place. Derp.

The nature of "any" links doesn't say there WERE links, but it doesn't say there weren't either. Encouraging, not conclusive

When even your own people are like, “Eh, not really Keith,” you know you’re reaching.

maybe – he does use 'whether' twice, though – staying tuned in.

So what? Should we pull Hillary’s server testimony and start nitpicking when she used the words “any” and “whether”?

Guys, this just comes off as desperate.

Is this another one of those ‘depends on what the definition of “is”, is’? *sigh*

Sounds like another nothingburger, Keith.
