Should Adam Schiff be censored or removed/replaced for reading a false "parody" of the trancript of the Ukraine call?

Or is it ok to read false information into the record intentionally?

    There you go stating your partisan political bias as fact again.

    It is not a bias that he read something into the record that was not in the transcript. Something that someone wrote that would have more suited for the Onion or SNL. 
    This is a fact no bias involved.

    ”Something that someone wrote that would have [been] more suited for the Onion or SNL”.  
    No bias at all. Just hyperbole then.

    If the President is taken as any example, making spurious official statements is no cause for removal from office.
    But you stay on top of it.

    What he read was not in the transcript...at all. That is a fact.

    And the ol’ Congressional Record is an unsullied bastion of purest facts....from the mouths of ...politicians. 

    Yeah, you stay on that.

    Really?
    Read YOUR OWN QUESTION. 

    “ read...into THE RECORD intentionally.“

    Are you even remotely aware you refer to the Congressional record? Schiff sullied it, according to you. Oh, the horror.

    There is a difference between spin or a difference in opinion on a political topic and just outroght lying and then saying it was a joke.

    That entire administration is a joke.  ENOUGH.  Trying to call Schiff out on a remark that everyone understands an agrees with?  Compared to someone who employs ONLY liars and lies every second, I'm sorry.  Your argument doesn't hold water.  

    Give it up. Schiff and COMEY AND MUELLER ARE JUST FINE.  Your guys?  They are gonin down. Orange clown.  Goin' down.  tic tic tic tiiiiic  tick tick tic tiiiiiiickkkkkk

    You are correct on that time will tell. 

    I do not and have never thought any high up people especially on the left will ever go down. I am sure I told you that before. I thought Barr might do his job...but it appears not.

    Nasty? I‘m not sure how you read that, amigo, but I assure you, it was written in the height of amusement.

    He read his opinion about what the essence of the call was about into the record---which is exactly what he said he was going to do.

    Do you not think that his opinion should be respected?

    What did Schiff read into the record that was not in the transcript?

    “I have a favor I want from you,” Schiff said on live television, while appearing to mimic Trump’s words and seemingly reading from a printed piece of paper. “And I’m going to say this only seven times, so you better listen good. I want you to make up dirt on my political opponent, understand? Lots of it, on this and on that,” said Schiff as part of his parody.

    There maybe more but that is what I was able to get with somewhat of a transcript of Schiff's "parody"

    Schiff later said his fictional summary was a “joke.”

    I don't know what "record" you think he was reading this into.  The documents stand on their own as to what they said and what was written.  Trump paraphrases and lies about a lot of things that he claims people said and/or did, but that's OK with you, right?

    The Congressional record of the testimony by the DNI.

    Schiff wasn't testifying so he isn't reading anything into any record.  You fail to grasp nuances, which seems to give you decidedly different opinions.

    The entire statements of all the Congressmen and the DNI are all recorded in to the Congressional record of the precedings. And Schiff knows that his parody=lies would be replayed and replayed on the news and that would be the only thing many Americans would hear about the call.
