Comey & FBI Blink After Email Investigation
Canada Free Press ^ | 07/08/16 | Michael Shannon

Posted on 07/08/2016 5:51:38 PM PDT by Sean_Anthony

When faced with a career–defining test Jeremiah Denton did all he could do, I’m not sure Comey did the minimum he could do

FBI Director James Comey’s news conference on the conclusion of the Hillary Clinton investigation reminded me of another staged media event in a hostile environment almost 50 years ago. During the Vietnam War Commander Jeremiah Denton had been shot down on a bombing raid and was being held in a Hanoi prison camp.

In May 1967 Denton was marched out by his captors to face a battery of television cameras. The goal of the propaganda event was to “prove” to gullible leftist journalists that the prisoners were well–treated in Hanoi.

Yes, we all face moments of truth in our lives. Some of us rise to the occasion and some don’t.

I believe today Hillary was telling Director Comey of the FBI that he will not have a job when and if she is selected.

She is having a problem with being called a LIAR...SHE BEST ADJUST TO IT, SHE IS GOING TO HEAR IT DAILY FOR THE NEXT FOUR PLUS MONTHS...

The ‘blink’ was that as he was being filmed by the North Vietnamese, he was blinking the letters “H”, “E”, “L” “P” in Morse code.

1. He blinked "torture"

2. I think the poster meant, "What was the FBI blink?"

The lying crooked Clinton was “interviewed” today by Wolfie on CNN and he asked her what did she think about Comey saying she was “extremely careless” with handling classified material. She tap danced around it and said he “clarified” what he meant and he didn’t really mean what he said. She once again said no material she handled was marked classified and she never sent classified email to anyone and her subordinates never sent classified email to anyone. And this worthless excuse for a human is allowed to get by with lying to anyone that crosses her path and Jesus Christ himself could catch her in a lie and she would deny it to His face. Comey said she was too stupid to recognize classified information and hell will freeze over before I believe that. No, she’ll keep lying and Trump will keep beating her over the head with campaign adds showing the lies and if it does not take effect and people start paying attention this country is finished. The Clintons have been a bad dream for the last 25 years. Will it ever end?

Well, the FBI ‘blink’ would have to be Comey folding like a lawn chair. ;-)

Didn’t HR Clinton ever send classified emails to Barack Obama? How about classified emails to AG Lynch, the very person who was directly involved with handling her investigation? How about classified emails to the FBI? How about classified emails to other government staff that were cleared for this information?

If so, why did not any of them ever put an end to her using the wrong server? How about that her husband was a former president and he never told her that she was breaking the law?

Could this be why she was not indicted? Because then all else who knew would be subject to losing their positions too?

Hillary emailed more than 60,000 emails to WHO?

If any of these emails were sent to elected government employees, wouldn’t they all know she was breaking the law and yet did not correct her?

As I wrote previously, this is possibly a reason why no criminal charges were filed. Then a lot of other people also look incompetent or criminal as well.

It’s to WHOM.

Maybe the Bent One had his own non-government emails going back in the day. Maybe the current Occupant does as well.

I've read and heard the theories that James Comey didn't want to be the historical figure that changed history by killing Hillary's Presidential campaign. I've heard the theory that he didn't want to recommend that she be indicted and then have her get off, making him look like a fool.

What he didn't consider is that when the history of the fallen republic that was the United States is written (if the true history is ever written), James Comey will be the Brutus that put the final knife in her back. He was "one to dare" (to quote an old poem about German concentration camp guards), and he failed.

A catalyst is something that causes activity between two or more persons or forces without itself being affected. James Comey suffers from the affectation that he is a catalyst. He is not. He is forever damaged by this, whether he realizes it or not. He revealed that he has no soul.

God forgive him. America won't.

You can be sure that CLINTON NEWS NETWORK will let Clinton lie and will sweep her scandals under the rug. But I say journalism should not be FICTION. CNN just parrots what comes out of the SPITE HOUSE, or the Clinton mouth. They should return their salary......CNNLIES

Comey did what he was told to do, nothing more than that. Do you actually think he was acting autonomously?

when you take the job as FBI Director, you know that someday you may have to make a tough call - like indict a major party candidate for president.

If you can’t do what you need to do on its worst day, as well as its best day, don’t take the job.

Comey failed the worst day standard.
