Washington (CNN)Former FBI Director James Comey called Thursday for the removal of Confederate statues in Virginia's capital in the wake of blackface scandals involving top statewide elected officials, in an op-ed for The Washington Post.
"Expressing bipartisan horror at blackface photos is essential, but removing the statues would show all of America that Virginia really has changed," Comey writes. "There is no doubt that Virginia's leaders need to be held accountable for their personal history, but every Virginia leader is responsible for the racist symbols that still loom over our lives," Comey writes.

Why doesn’t he find something USEFUL to do with his time, instead of trying to erase American history? Probably a lot of cans and other refuse along the roads and highways he could spear and put into his bag.

Comey is a liberal kook.Totally agree, but he liked to go around saying he's been a Republican. What a joke.

The fact Comey would say something like this reveals how extreme his views truly are, raising questions about whether the Marxist efforts to remove Confederate statutes over the past few years have been directed by intelligence community partisans such as Comey—and were the Holder/Lynch DOJ and their successors in the post-Lynch DOJ involved?

Who let Comey out of his padded cell?
To: conservative98
It's nuts... Comey and others in 'intelligence' have decided they can do anything - break any laws - attempt a coup to overthrow a duly elected President ... ANYTHING, so long as they're first to 'defend' black citizens... And yeah in mattered in 1964 but today? The black community is fully capable of defending themselves...
