Comey is on the board of HSBC, the drug money laundering Bank, He will do for her Foundation what he did for her e-Mail....Whitewash.

"Win or lose she is getting a full pardon on January 19 and will skate away scot-free."

I missed your post originally, but it kinda answers my question.

The fix was in decades ago.

Question: If Hillary gets elected, can she pardon herself for past crimes? I seem to remember another Clinton seeing if he could do the same thing!

[chajin]

If he wins the election, the chip of state will pardon her and every Rat ever involved in any wrongdoing back to the time of Roosevelt.

By whom you mean, I assume, Claes Maartenszen van Rosenvelt, the original Roosevelt who came over sometime in the early 1600s, about the same time my oldest American ancestor came to Virginia as an indentured servant.

“A month has passed since FBI Director James Comey ripped into Hillary Clinton for the “extremely careless” way she handled classified emails while she was secretary of state, but stopped short of recommending that criminal charges be brought against her. However, that doesn’t mean Hillary is out of the FBI woods.”

Yes it does. When the law is “gross negligence” and the guy in charge of enforcing the law describes the offender’s actions as “the definition of carelessness, of negligence” and “extremely careless”, adds “I think she was negligent”, and then shrugs his shoulders, then it’s game over.

The FBI Never Gets Its Clinton

There, fixed it.

A full pardon? Are you suggesting Hillary will indeed be indicted? Can't receive a pardon for rumors. Pardons are reserved for the indicted/convicted.

“Comey is on the board of HSBC”

In Hong Kong the locals say that HSBC stands for “Holy Shit Batman Crooks!”

It is my understanding that one who is under indictment may not run for President.

An indictment would come by way of an empaneled Grand Jury.

So now you know why there was no Grand Jury empaneled with the eMail case. The "Powers" that be + she wanted to run.

It' all just the process of Criminal Procedure and the short circuiting thereof -- at least on the eMails thing.

The Foundation activity might be something else. Could nearly as much damage be sustained by Hillary in a political sense, if Bill and Chelsea get indicted? Think of the speculation about what did she know and when did she know it? Her trustworthiness is already a matter of widely expressed public disdain. Even (D) pollster Doug Schoen doesn't try to make excuses for her on this point.

Politically speaking, the public speculation is all that is needed. Imagine if Obama is now in the position of having to consider pardoning Bill. Does he? Dare he do so politically - for his own legacy's sake? Either way Hillary is screwed politically.

What if the plan is to do the necessary political damage - an October surprise maybe, if Comey has secretly empaneled a Grand Jury already on the Clinton Foundation, indict Bill, but avoid Hillary's actual indictment until such a time as Obama is powerless to pardon her? Whatever anyone says here, one must admit that Comey has already done major political damage to HRC.

Sure. It's complete speculation on my part but I've had an an awful lot of fun doing it!

FReegards!

Horse manure, not THIS FBI.

[zeugma]

Bull. The FBI is a part of the criminal enterprise we call the US government. It does what its overlords tell it to do. This nation became a banana republic while we slept.

[Jim Noble]

A pardon is applicable only if there has been a conviction and sentencing

Wrong.

[orchestra]

Ha Ha, don't make me laugh- they had their chance and they folded. Jim Comey's name is mud, even with his half stepping attempt at JustUS.

[RitaOK]

You certainly have something there. Cleaning Hillary up is a full time job, with a deadline in November.

[Enlightened1]

Yeah right...

[mkjessup]

"Her own, personal Jesus..."

[Dr. Ursus]

LOL!

[blueunicorn6]

I defended Comey and the FBI right up to the last couple of minutes of his speech excusing Hillary.

He destroyed the republic and gave us an aristocracy.

Negligence with classified material is now acceptable.

Selling our secrets is now acceptable.

Comey is a traitor to the citizens of the United States.

His name belongs beside Benedict Arnold.

As for the FBI?

Disband it.

They aren’t worth the expense.

You had fun speculating....now its my turn.

I do think you might have hit some good notes there...b/c I believe Bill is pushing feeble Hillary into the presidency....that they intend to get back in by voter fraud.

Pres Hillary collapses.....Bill then does a Mrs woodro wilson...takes over the duties..

Keep in mind Bill thinks he's the "most beloved living president" and that people are clamoring for him to be back in the Oval Office.
