I am listening to Laura Ingraham. She mentioned this thread a few minutes ago, citing “the folks at Free Republic...”
That’s pretty cool.
That is kind of like check mate.
Is it possible that Comey knew that Lynch would not prosecute so he got up and provided details to show she is guilty as hell, then abruptly switched to “will not prosecute” to show that the fix was in?
But obama may well pardon her!!!!
PHOOEY!!!!
Hillary’s e-mails are an election issue. If Trump wins, he would (rightly) not pursue the issue further. Sure, Hillary is corrupt as hell, but Presidents have 4 years to get an agenda through, they don’t fight old battles nor do they want to muddy the PR waters with issues outside of that agenda.
Here are the holes:
1) no matter what the present admin may have let her get away with, there are hundreds if not thousands more legitimate charges that could be brought against her at any time
2) by recommending indictment it would all but eliminate the scenario where she becomes President and pardons herself
I don't believe that "Comey is a genius" though. I think he was given marching orders all along to "conduct a whitewash investigation to get it behind Madam Benghazi". After all, the public has a very short attention span, and now she can even point to this and claim that it was all a right-wing witch hunt (we FOUND the witch) and that "the FBI cleared her" (another lie).
What I am wondering about is the noise that was made over the last few weeks about an “FBI revolt” if no indictment.
Looks like that was a lot of hot air, too.
While I feel your scenario has some merit, it does seem to me that our side is always looking for silver linings while their side is always simply winning.
I’d like to be a fly on the wall at Comey’s house right about now. If he’s as fair and honorable as many say he is, then he must be SEETHING at all the crap being said about him these last few hours. Just look at the nasty names he’s been called in just this thread alone!
He’s being painted as a sell-out and a traitor and a blackmail victim, to name a few, and his good reputation is being trashed. What is that name-calling doing to him? What is his wife telling him? What is he telling his FBI co-workers to keep them from a mutiny?
I’m hoping that Comey is indeed as honest and upright as many suggest. If so, then he must be planning for the next round, making preps to protect his family, getting all of his prosecutorial ducks in a row.
Then we get to hear about the Clinton Crime Foundation and all of the influence peddling and foreign contributions and assorted skulduggery. That should be a wonderful show!
I thought the same thing. If he’s been warned off from recommending charges, he went ahead and laid out the case against her anyway. He could have not emphasized the negligence aspect as he did. I suspect he will resign soon, and it would be nice if he then went public with how the fix was accomplished. On the other hand, bad things happen to those who go against the Clintons.
He is a WEASEL
Just like Roberts was a genius by not canning Obamacare.
AND.....there’s nothing more that liberals love than a VICTIM. If Hillary was indicted, she would then be a VICTIM of the right and the liberals would rally round her.
OK, feel free to punch holes in my assertion.

it doesn’t need holes, it has plenty. No offense meant, but this just makes no sense whatsoever. Come to grips with it—Comey either chickened out or is compromised. That’s all there is to it.
BUT to cheer you up, here’s a video split screen with Comey on one side. Hillary on the other. Ready-made Trump campaign ad:

Perhaps.... or maybe Comey has the character of Pilot. With Hillary, her guilt is easy to see yet he washes his hands of holder her accountable.
With Christ, no guilt was found.... yet He was crucified.
