That is why she has more than one “cover-up agent” on her speed dial.

Comey didn’t botch the Hillary investigation; he illegally covered for her. In his infamous speech, he verbally outlined in great detail the number of laws she had violated, then stated he wouldn’t be sending that on to the AG for prosecution.

Comey added it all up....then figured if he let her off, he'd get a better book deal than if he nailed her.

Every word out of Comey's mouth in his testimony before Congress was a pitch for a book deal.......he and his agent literally wrote the chapter headings and passed it off as Comey's testimony.

Trump neds to nail Comy but good....embargo all his testimony on grounds of ntl security.

That prevents Comey from writing about it.

So close, grasshopper. You will have reached full enlightenment when you realize laws were created to protect the elite from the serfs.

It's all an illusion produced to validate and rationalize government. Once you accept their moral authority, then you will bend the knee as a willing subject. You will pay your taxes, follow the rules, and yield to their monopoly of violence.

In theory, and maybe it actually existed at one point, republican government is supposed to protect against force & fraud. The social contract allows them certain liberties (eg Hobbes, Locke, et al) in exchange for the performance of said duties.

Trump ran on a platform that is supposed to attempt to resurrect these core principles. The charge is he's a narcissist who simply jumped a particular bandwagon issue to satisfy his own ego. Defenders claim he actually "cares" about American.

The indictments, arrests, trials and sentencing - assuming conviction - of these criminals will be the true litmus test for Trump.

Normal people cannot fathom the degree of pathology among creatures who have developed the kind of persona necessary to operate at the highest levels of government.

It is utterly & irrevocably separated from any common notion of merit, good will, achievement and reward. Rather, it is the classic workings of the criminal mind, where all consideration is based on "I win, you lose" propositions.

That they can parade around in public, and appear to be normal, functioning people, is the greatest mistake citizens can make.

Going to the Rose Garden to name Comey as Mueller's replacement at the FBI.

No he didn’t, he did exactly what was planned.

Anyone else doing the same thing as Hillary would already be in prison.

Correcto mundo. And that is why Democrats crave power. It protects them against legal jeopardy or exposure of wrongdoing. Hillary will never be held accountable.

Botched implies mistaken. Comey did everything in this investigation in a planned and precise way. IMO he “Threw” the investigation.

There is a difference between botching a task and being ordered to stand down by your bigoted mayor.

The author acts like Comey is incompetent, when the fact is he threw the investigation and prosecution....

I wonder if anyone ever mentioned the word "Arkancide" to him?

My understanding was that Immunity from prosecution was offered and accepted to several key players. Like Cheryl Mills who was most likely the mastermind behind the coverup...and the evidence was then destroyed.

Evidently “botched” is code for “colluded.”
