Cornyn: Obama 'trying to influence' FBI Clinton probe
Washington Examiner ^ | 4/14/15 | Joel Gehrke

The number two Republican in the Senate charged Thursday that President Obama is "trying to influence the outcome" of the FBI investigation into Hillary Clinton's use of a private email server during her tenure at the State Department.

"Time and time again, the White House has projected its desired outcome of this investigation to the public, and worse, to those people conducting it," Texas Sen. John Cornyn said on the Senate floor Thursday afternoon.

The Senate majority whip has long called for a special counsel to take over the review of Clinton's email practices, but President Obama's latest defense of the Democratic presidential candidate sparked another warning that the Justice Department has a conflict-of-interest in the Clinton probe.

Obama praised Clinton last weekend during an interview with Fox News Sunday, and boosted her defense that some of the classified messages on her email account are categorized that way for bureaucratic reasons, and not because they raise real national security concerns.

It’s time to impeach. We’ve fooled around with Obonzo long enough. America has laws. They apply to politicians as well as the unwashed masses.

Some good may come from the heat Obama’s getting from his interview with Chris Wallace: Obama may (behind the scenes) instruct Loretta Lynch to appoint a special prosecutor to handle whatever the FBI comes up with on the HRC email investigation. That would be bad p.r. for her.

But that simply cannot be! Dear Leader just told Chris Wallace days ago there was no political influencing of investigations!

Not a smidgen!

So you expect the Republican Eunichs to grow a pair all of a sudden. You have a good sense of humor.

I’d love to see a special prosecutor assigned. I can’t wait to see Obama’s reaction when her racketeering is exposed and exposed and exposed and exposed ...

Never happen. The GOPe will not risk its cushy political and personal financial position(s). It is all they care about — they have proven that to all that care to look and listen.

There are countless times in the past when "I'm not going to comment on an ongoing investigation" has been said.

Old 'Stompy Feet' must not have gotten the message.

Something will happen. My guess is once the racketeering breaks, Obama will be up the proverbial creek. But he’ll have to do something to defuse the situation and prevent Trump from mainlining it all of the country and stop Sanders from making hay with it.

Hillary will need to go. The only credible solution is she gets so sick she has to drop out of the race. The White House can then stall and probably run Biden up a flag pole. They’ll need to do something to counter Sanders.

After that Obama can pardon Hillary in January on the way out of office. she then miraculously recovers.

Hillary will not get indicted, the investigation will go nowhere, she runs against “The Don” and thoroughly whips him, case closed. Oh, in the waning days of Zero’s reign, he pardons HRC in the name of unity.
