I watched about 8 minutes of the hearing when I got back from work-the democrats acted like they don’t live in the real world, the repubs getting lame non-answers and dodges to every question, and Comey has apparently developed selective amnesia and has decided any question he doesn’t want to answer involves secret info-he has obviously decided he would rather look like a fool than visit someplace like Ft. Marcy park...

When Hillary indulges in velleity
It is a danger-she has the money
To give to all her synchophants
Who keep her disposition sunny

They will make offers to others
And acceptance without a fuss
Looks like a happier outcome
Than the underside of the bus

Bill purchased not only an AG
But FBI’s Comey for the wife-
Forget the law-it is all about
Keeping happiness in her life...

OMG....I hadn’t heard. I had calling hours last night and have been offline, no TV. How very sad, may they RIP and may justice be served. Their end is coming when Obama is out. Trump won’t stand for this.
