Is James Comey delusional or simply a LSOS?

What Hillary did wasn’t just “gross negligence” or an accident. She sent sensitive documents over an unsecured mail server ON PURPOSE. She even deleted the classified headings ON PURPOSE.

Comeys job is to enforce not change law.

He failed to do his job.

Needs to go,Donald

Let me translate.

Laws are for the little people.

I agree with this. Things happen with classified stuff all the time. I have also slipped up in the past with classified stuff. It happens because accidents happen.

It ceased to be able to be called "negligence" after the NSA ordered her to stop using it!

How can anything be negligent after being warned?

From Jan 2016.

But they’re not ruling class.

"We don't want to put people in jail unless we prove that they knew they were doing something they shouldn't do. That is the characteristic of all the prosecutions involving the mishandling of classified information."

I find it really hard to believe that Hillary did not know that it is illegal to set up her personal system, or to take classified material out of a secure environment. She was reminded by the annual training that everyone receives. OTOH, the warning that comes up whenever someone accesses a government IT system probably didn't remind her, since she never would have seen it.

Even if we took this on face value, one must question the wisdom of even considering a negligent person for the important office of president. Her "negligence" led to the deaths in Benghazi, and will lead to other deaths if she is placed in a position with that much responsibility.

Come the revolution, lets add a branch of government.

In stark contrast to the legislative branch, this branch’s entire existence would be dedicated to removing laws and regulations from the books.

The body making laws in the legislative branch is called ‘Congress’.

Logically, this branch’s body would be called ‘Progress’

The law is the law until it’s repealed Comey.

The more Comey talks the further down the rabbit hole he goes. He was told by Lynch what to do and he did it. Lynch tells Clinton on the tarmac case closed.

His job is just to investigate crimes and report the findings to a prosecutor. Trump needs to make a big point of Comey leaving and Hillary not being able to fill the position at all.

Funny how Comey bases his decision on how others would decide.

F'ING COWARD!

This lying sack of manure knows Hillary ordered classified headings deleted and sent to her so she could forward them too. That clearly proves he is a fraud and a liar.
