FBI Director James Comey said Wednesday he plans to serve his entire 10-year term, even as controversy swirls over his attempt to rebut President Donald Trump’s claim that the Obama administration tapped his phones during the election.
“You’re stuck with me for another 6½ years,” Comey said during a cybersecurity conference at Boston College.
Comey was appointed 3½ years ago by then-President Barack Obama.
Controversy erupted last weekend after Trump tweeted that Obama had tapped his phones at Trump Tower during the election. Trump offered no evidence of his claim. Comey asked the Justice Department to publicly reject the allegation as false. …

Comey....the credibility of Zero.
and could this be another...
When is Trump going to fire this fool?
I trust the president with this matter.
Comey would not be the first FBI Director to be fired/dismissed! He could be the second!

“I trust the president with this matter.”
Me too. I will wait for President Trump to comment on the matter. We have no idea what is happening behind the scenes.
Comey’s ass is fireable. More so after such an arrogant statement.
"That's what you think, bub."
In his position as head of the FBI Comey has the goods on most politicians including Trump and the VP just like J Edgar Hoover had in his time.
And James Comey just made it.
It would be wonderful for the POTUS if the congressional investigation led to their recommendation that Comey be fired for “cause”.
Dreaming? Probably....
You serve at the behest of the President.
Ummm no you can be fired you moron
Just keep praying, folks. God is in charge. President Trump, et al have to follow HIS WAY. . .DAILY. . no exceptions.
By whom?
Ahh, nope. He has a six year term. He can be impeached, I guess. The whole reason for the six year term is so the President can’t fire him.
There will never be 2/3 of the senate ready to convict him.
So, pretty much he is here for a while.
Yeah, and Hillary thought she'd be President. Things don't always go as we plan.
It is a presidential appt. it can be undone
