That too, would be fine. The question is, How can Obama siphon off the rest of Hillary’s money?
Schlichter apparently thinks he is being clever, by writing this article in which he attempts to ghost write Comey’s inner thoughts and thus appealing to his conscience.
Whether it works or not, remains to be seen.
-—How can Obama siphon off the rest of Hillary’s money?-—
Not a problem. Obama will be denied.
The money will be used to fight AIDS and Malaria in Africa /s
He continued, "I'm going to indict Hillary and run for President myself."
He needs to make a decision and that decision cannot be based on who might occupy the WH after the election. Decision to indict means we have a shred of possibility that we can save this republic. Decision not to indict means we now have a banana republic. Which is it Comey?
He cannot indict. The police do not indict. They investigate.
In my opinion, this will end one of two ways.
1) Comey retires a wealthy man and Clinton is the Democrat nominee. Then the only question is; Is the United States a Socialist Banana Republic or a Constitutional Republic?
2) Hillary is indicted. Hillary drops out due to “health issues” Joe Biden parachutes in to Save the Day. Comey joins Ken Starr in exile.
Trump is maybe the only candidate who can beat Hillary, but I don’t know about Biden. Especially with Biden being portrayed by the media as the “Savior” of both the Democrat Party and the nation.
As always, time will tell.
In 1775, we declared war on England. The reason was obvious. The king and his court was strangling the colonies with taxes and regulations. There were two sets of laws - one for the colonists (harsh and unyielding) and one for the court (soft and forgiving). Of course, the king was above the law.
Some of the bravest men stepped forward and risked, life, health and wealth to right such a grievous wrong. They spoke out in no uncertain terms what they were committed to do.
“I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death! Patrick Henry
“These are the times that try men’s souls: The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of his country; but he that stands it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman.” Thomas Paine
and finally,
“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.” Declaration of Independence
Today, the conditions are little different than 1775. We have a king, above the law, and his court, forgiven much while the people are over-taxed and over-regulated. But where are the men willing to risk life, health and wealth? Where are the men speaking to our commitment to freedom? NOWHERE
Based on a leak last year about the meeting in the FBI there were several present and the decision was made to proceed with the investigation based on the evidence of guilt. Note that there was no indication of when the meeting occurred.
The FBI became aware of Hillary’s server about three years ago when they helped Romania catch Guccifer. Five of Hillary’s aides lawyered up around November of last year. My guess is the war of words between the White House and its proxies and the FBI finally convinced Hillary that the investigation was not going to go away. Hillary of course retained David Kendall. It might be interesting to figure out when that happened. I think that was pre-Petraeus who also used Kendall.
The roots of the investigation go back farther than is public knowledge. I wouldn’t be surprised if Comey made his decision in the first half of 2015 or earlier based on the known key events.
Comey investigates, Lynch charges and the grand jury indicts.
Another option. Clinton pleads guilty to some misdemeanor, slap on the wrist that could include “community service” that she and the media could transform into ways to improve her image.
You have to assume that the Clinton’s hold immense leverage over Obama, which is why the investigation isn’t going to result in indictment. Do you really believe Hillary would overlook taking out “health insurance” to cover this eventuality?
Fantasy Plan:
Instead of a stompy-feet resignation and making verbal statements that Clinton and her media will ride out in a week, Comey has FBI agents arrest Hillary and her minions with great fanfare, WITHOUT DoJ approval. DoJ and the media will have a firestorm, which will be on CNN, etc., 24/7. But everyone will have seen the handcuffs and perp walks. DoJ will have to explain why they aren’t indicting despite the massive evidence that will then be dragged into the public consciousness. Comey will be ordered to resign, but he can refuse and set up a public battle over the FBI’s authority to enforce the law in the face of obvious DoJ politicization.
Reality:
DoJ will drag their feet, playing Comey like a hooked bass on the false hope they will indict ... next week. They will finally do one of two things:
1) Broker plea agreements with no trials, etc, with some of Hillary’s flunkies admitting to mishandling information despite Hillary’s heroic efforts to follow the law. Bryan Pagliano and has an immunity deal, so he will be the main fall guy; with perhaps Heather Samuelson introduced to the underside of the bus also. Clinton Foundation will pay their fines and give them cushy jobs for life. Or,
2) If the evidence is so overwhelming they know Comey will go public, Lynch will make a deal with him for the DoJ to recuse itself and request a Special Prosecutor. This will require Congress to pass a SP bill, the President sign it, a Clinton devotee to be selected as SP (Jamie Gorelick?), the SP to review all the evidence and basically re-investigate the case. Oops — this will take about 2 years.
I don’t worry about that. when she is gone , so will all her baggage
Hillary’s running mate would then become the donkey’s nominee.
Since the entirety of Watergate, from break-in to resignation, took just under 26 months, I cannot help but think we are being played here.
I have NO faith that Comey, the FBI, the DoJ, Congress or any other part of our present system of government will see to it that justice will be served and the guilty punished appropriately.
sorry, I know that, just poor wording choice. I was trying to make the point that this decision will help cement what kind of country we will have, a country of laws or a country of men.
Her mishandling of classified information is too extensive for a slap on the wrist. The NSA said publicly Blumenthal sent her classified info that he copied verbatim from a source that was not disclosed.
Along with the racketeering, theres no way that can be plead down to a misdemeanor.
There are 22 million veterans in this country. How many do you think handled classified info? How many know she’s lying?
How many will vote against her?
