That was the choice for FBI Director Comey. He could either do his job by the letter of the law – and personally determine who would be the next president – or he could take a bullet in the chest for the good of the American public.
He took the bullet.
Thanks to Comey, the American voting public will get to decide how much they care about Clinton’s e-mail situation. And that means whoever gets elected president will have enough credibility to govern effectively.
Comey might have saved the country. He sacrificed his reputation and his career to keep the nation’s government credible.
It was the right decision.
Comey is a hero.

Not true. It may have, and I stress may have, cost her the nomination, but that is it.
He sacrificed his reputation but not his career. He preserved his career by deliberately and intentionally lying.
It was the wrong decision. He could have told the truth and then been fired by bammy, unable to find a job in any democratically-controlled area. But he didn’t. He caved to the pressure that bammy put on him. Now he is a disgraced failure.
We don’t know what bammy would have had done to him if he had done what is upright and just. I suspect Comey knows what becomes of people who oppose bammy.
Ironically, he disabled comments for this blog entry.
_________________________________________________________
He has disabled all comments for all blog posts until after the election. He was getting spammed pretty badly and from what I saw most of the spam was nonsense in support of the lying criminal.
And when the FBI comes knocking on Dilbert’s door, will Comey once again take the bullet?
Comey recommends indictment. Hillary gets indicted and loses nomination. Sanders gets nominated and the election goes on and the system works. Adams has lost his mind.
My opinion of Comey cannot be printed on FR.
“Comey is a hero.”
Is this a joke?
He’s a coward and a traitor, bought and paid for by the Clinton crime family.
I happen to agree with Scott Adams who I’ve come to realize is one of the more insightful observers of this election process, and maybe of politics in general.
People forget that AG Lynch is perfectly within her rights to reject Comey’s obviously faulty reasoning for not recommending charges be brought, and to proceed with an indictment anyway.
By setting forth the results of his investigation, results which not even the Dems are disputing currently, and which put each of Hillary’s past lies on the matter on full display, Comey has made it clear that Hillary abused her position.
And now, by “convincing” AG Lynch that no indictment is warranted (again, she is free to disagree and take action anyway), Comey has effectively sucked Lynch into Hillary’s circle of corruption, along with all the liberals who are now crowing that Hillary did nothing wrong.
But Comey couldn’t have made it clearer that she did plenty wrong. The House is even now preparing to discuss perjury with Hillary given the clear contrast between her lies and his investigative findings, which is probably why the House wants to see his specific evidence.
So, against all this background, the people get to decide whether they want someone of Hillary’s caliber to be the next President. Adams is right; Comey handled it well given his choices. And his comments on a government retaining credibility are worth considering as well, as they were quite insightful in my opinion.
I also agree with his side point that we should consider sticking with an eight member Supreme Court. People forget that the original court was made up of six members which meant that overturning a Congressional action effectively required a 2/3 majority of the court. Otherwise any law passed would stand. In fact, we should consider returning to six.
Or....
Comey recommends indictment. Hillary gets indicted and loses nomination. Sanders gets nominated and the election goes on and the system works. Adams has lost his mind.
In reading some liberal social media posts, the insanity is going to entirely new levels. I mean, everyone THINKS she's guilty, just, well, umm, not criminally guilty, right? The way they see the cards stacked, they want this first female president who's husband has a higher active security clearance than she does. Then again, that kind of is the entire point, Billy's third term as president. Hope they've planned a good long series of trips around the world for her to go on while Billy's running the country.
There is one angle of Comey’s statement to consider more carefully, the point at which he said, “...our judgment is that no reasonable prosecutor, i.e., US Attorney, would bring such a case.” The law in question, Title 18 USC, Section 793, is a federal law and, as such, a US Attorney would have to agree to prosecute the case. ALL US Attorneys are appointed by the president; would any US Attorney appointed by Obama be willing to prosecute Hillary Clinton...?
Indeed. It’s similar to his support of Her Thighness. . . because he doesn’t want to suddenly incur a fatal accident. . .
Usually that's true. But if there's sarcasm here I've failed to detect it.
Giuliani was a prosecutor at the highest levels. He just said there was more than enough evidence to indict.
Wake up you fool. On a globalist run planet, national voting is for losers. If they think Hillary could lose, they won’t hold the election. Globalism must be deleted in its entirety. Just look at Britain, they are already working to undo the Brexit vote. They thought they had that one wrapped up when they killed one of their own and blamed it on the leave crowd.
Yes! But the Brexit vote succeeded and it was not. things are not as absolute as you guarantee.
Yes! But the Brexit vote succeeded and it was not as doomed to failure as you portray. Things are not as absolute as you guarantee.
Yeah right. Votes are meaningless to globalists. Just wait and see.
