As part of his upcoming book tour, James Comey is scheduled to appear on some tough, hard hitting news shows in April. He will share his experiences on such impressive venues as Stephen Colbert, George Snuffleupagus, and The View. He seems to me to be an especially fine fit on The View– Whoopi Goldberg, Joy Behar- what more could a former FBI Director want? It’s hard to imagine the former Number One G-man in the country demeaning the FBI any worse than that.
This book tour is fraught with risks:
But far more significant could be the implications of Comey’s written words and upcoming media interviews for special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia probe.Comey is setting the stage for what could be a very interesting time. I just watched an interview Maria Bartiromo held with former Attorney General Michael Mukasy during which a couple of interesting points were raised. Mukasy said that there are FBI publication guidelines- an FBI agent or a former FBI agent cannot write about substantive issues in pending investigations, especially without approval from the Bureau. Mukasy also noted that Comey dropped charges against hillary before it was public knowledge that obama communicated with hillary on her server with a code name.His book, “A Higher Loyalty,” represents an official statement on key parts of the federal Russia probe—including the question of whether Trump may have sought to obstruct justice, a question Mueller is investigating. Legal experts warn that Comey’s own words could complicate court proceedings or a Congressional impeachment debate triggered by Mueller’s findings.
Prosecutors like Mueller generally cringe when a witness speaks at length in public before a case has wrapped up. Comey’s blockbuster book and accompanying media tour, which kicks off in primetime on Sunday, will also expose him to the watchful eye of Trump allies and defense lawyers ready to exploit any inconsistencies in his accounts to their clients’ benefit.
“I’d have a conniption if I knew one of my witnesses was going to be writing a book,” said Nick Akerman, a former assistant U.S. attorney and Watergate prosecutor.
“From a prosecutor standpoint, you want a witness who hasn’t gone out and made lots of statements that can be used to cross examine him,” Akerman added. “What he puts in there, he’s got to realize that’s his story and that’s what he’s sticking by.”
One bombshell out of the book was Comey's admission that the investigation into Hillary Clinton was politically biased:
Chris Wallace has called the book "bitchy."
And it could hardly be more bitchy.
The 6-foot-8 Comey describes Trump as shorter than he expected with a "too long" tie and "bright white half-moons" under his eyes that he suggests came from tanning goggles. He also says he made a conscious effort to check the president's hand size, saying it was "smaller than mine, but did not seem unusually so."Trey Gowdy calls the book "beneath the dignity" of the FBI:
"I can't think of anyone who's done a better job of politicizing the FBI than he has in the last 36 to 48 hours, by talking about tanning bed goggles and the length of a tie," Gowdy said on Fox News. "That is beneath the dignity of the offices that he held."It only gets worse. Comey said that it was possible Trump was with the peeing hookers:Among other things, Comey's book mocks Trump's physical appearance by saying he had "bright white half-moons" that he thought came from tanning goggles.
"I'm really disappointed, whether or not the intelligence community vetted this book," Gowdy said. "I hope he let them do it so he's not disseminating classified information. My guess is he did."
"But the writing of the book in general and then some of the things that he's talking about are just frankly beneath the dignity of some really important offices he once held," he said.
Ex-FBI Director James Comey said “it’s possible” President Trump was with hookers “peeing on each other” in Moscow, according to excerpts of a new interview released Friday.He doesn't know, but he repeats the inflammatory salacious accusation. He continues to spread unverified information. Hold that thought. Then he insulted Trump for wanting it disproved.“I honestly never thought these words would come out of my mouth, but I don’t know whether the current president of the United States was with prostitutes peeing on each other in Moscow in 2013,” Comey said in a “20/20” episode set to air Sunday. “It’s possible, but I don’t know.”

Dirty cop comey is a fag who was sizing up President Trump, hoping he'd get the rear ending that homobama gave him, with tears in his eyes.
(did I type that out loud?)
Mike Wallace, of all people summed it up in one word;
“I was surprised at how ‘Bitchy’ the James Comey book turned out to be!”
Best headline of the day!
(Sorry POTUS, it beats your “Slippery James Comey” tweet.)
I honestly never thought that these words would come out of my keyboard, but, "I don't know whether the 44th President of the United States was having sexual relations with a goat inside the White House. From what we already know about Obama it's certainly possible and likely even probable, but I don't know."
Not a memo is sight while dealing with Hillary and Obama. But he gets to Trump....and all of a sudden he's doing memos.
But to backtrack, he said that he's always done the memo thing.
Based upon the excerpts and commentary about this “book”, I have come to conclude that one of the following two things is the real truth with regard to the release of this book:
1) Comey’s obsession with PDJT’s “manly” attributes is bizarre at best, obscenely odd at worst; Comey’s admission that he was “bullied” in high school (thrown against lockers, given wedgies [?]......really, a male student well above 6’ in height was pushed around......puhleeze) shows he truly is a complete pussy
2) This book was written by someone else (paging the author[s] of the Steele “dossier”) as further support of the desperate narrative the Clintons are trying to keep alive in the media to help stave off the coming shitstorm
I believe that Number 2 is the real truth. No man would, on his own, write words that define him as a complete and utter metrosexual, incompetent beta male.
He understates!
Unless perhaps he actually were "a complete and utter metrosexual, incompetent beta male".
Comey is going to be treated in some kind of rehab or for some kind of mental illness in the not-distant future.
Somebody be sure to wake me up when this thing goes on Hannity or Laura Ingraham. Until then, every other appearance on the schedule is just another day of TDS redux.
It is worse...he is a Ceta male.
Good. Let him do it. He’s hated by half the country and he’s doing a great job destroying the reputation of a disgusting criminal Federal agency.
He is the poster boy for Deepstate power and corruption.
And he probably excerpts his blog too.. just like you.

Paul Ryan: James Comey Is a Man of Integrity ‘As Far As I Know’
I shared a table in a packed hospital cafeteria with an interesting old, old guy who volunteered there. Turns out he was a Dr. who had spent his entire life doctoring in a tiny community near Fresno. He confided in me an interesting theory about tall people (Comey is 6’8”). He said in his youth, everyone was 5 foot something and it was only when bread, juice, milk, etc. got “fortified” in the 1940’s he claimed, that so many men (and even women) began sprouting into 6’ and over. He was of the opinion that the body developing rapidly like that took away from brain function and intelligence suffered. Half baked, or was he onto something? He was an interesting person and seemed in full control of his faculties. (Hey, I’m happy as I’m only 5’ 2”).
