Fired former FBI Director James Comey is at it again.
Last week, Comey testified before members of the House Judiciary Committee and the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee. In a single appearance, Comey, on 245 separate occasions, while under oath, stonewalled questions with "I don't know," "I don't remember" or "I don't recall," according to a congressional interrogator, Rep. Jim Jordan. (R-Ohio).
If any private citizen tried Comey's gambit with federal IRS auditors or FBI investigators, he would likely be indicted for perjury or obstruction.
Why did Comey, the nation's former top-ranking federal investigator, avoid telling "the whole truth and nothing but the truth" while under oath?
The answer is, unfortunately, obvious. Comey has been called to testify before members of Congress on numerous occasions. He has written a long book and gone on an extensive book tour, and his paper trail is long.
He tweets almost daily and is often on television -- and in those venues never seems to admit to any memory lapse. And Comey has been at the center of every major scandal involving the 2016 election.
In other words, Comey is realizing that almost anything he might say will likely be at odds with something he has said, done or written prior -- and could potentially subject him to perjury charges.
So, Comey dodges and hedges.
Oddly, Comey has long posed as a modern-day Jeremiah. He thunders almost daily about the moral lapses of his perceived antagonists -- mostly Donald Trump, the Trump administration and the Republican Party that Comey left.

Cant leave what you never belonged to
Just think: if you did the same thing to His Noble Highness Sir Comey, the Being of Light who is above all of us, he’d charge you with some fabricated crime and threaten to take your kid to prison, your dog, your wife to a brothel run by the FBI, and your parents would lose their pensions.
Ask Mike Flynn.
Comey is a corrupt rat. Scary he was even hired for anything more than a dog catcher.
Comey belongs to the International Order Of Weasels.
Weasel weasel weasel
One of the saddest things about Comey is that he has destroyed the image of the FBI.

“Comey said his bizarre behavior was designed to force the appointment of a special counsel, which resulted in the selection of Robert Mueller”
Astounding!
what kind of country gives seditious transporters
of uranium to enemies of the state such unparalleled
power to murder/destroy/takeout an ELECTED President?
alex, what is a banana republic?
So . . . when was this era we’re talking about when the FBI had an image that wasn’t tarnished, blemished, and tainted with scandal and corruption?
How far back do you go with the FBI?
I just loathe this punk.
Well. . . From the cross dressing Director, Herbert Hoover thru Ruby Ridge, Waco, Kallstrom, Colby, Mueller and Comey.
I confess they had a great image perpetuated by Emfram Zimbalist Jr., on ABC television but that was Hollywood

Watch Mulholland Falls, with Nick Nolte and Bruce Dern, for their take on Hoover’s lawyers playing cop.
Reinhold Niebuhr could not be reached for sound bite.

actually he has shown us their image was already very tarnished but hidden from light...
Yeah, you have a point, from day one on....the FBI is a myth. The TV show might have led us to think otherwise (I can remember watching that). It’s just a collection of losers, on some federal mission, and occasionally...accidentally...they get the bad guy.
