President Obama is now criticizing FBI Director James Comey for injecting “innuendo” and “incomplete information” into the presidential race.

“I do think that there is a norm that when there are investigations, we don’t operate on innuendo and we don’t operate on incomplete information and we don’t operate on leaks,” Obama told NowThisNews in an interview.

When this was investigated thoroughly last time, the conclusion of the FBI, the conclusion of the Justice Department, the conclusion of repeated congressional investigations was she had made some mistakes but that there wasn’t anything there that was prosecutable,” he added.

The comments are the first the president’s made since Comey sent a letter to lawmakers on Capitol Hill on Friday to inform them that new evidence had emerged in the Hillary Clinton email case.

Oh, so maybe Obama realized that if Hillary loses he is exposed to the expanding criminal scandal himself?

He’s slow, it takes him a bit of time to add it up.

Seems his effort in persuading Comey to let the DOJ whitewash the investigation must have failed.

The “seriousness of the charges” won’t matter until after Trump is the one being investigated.

The only explanation for this is that Obama himself has now been directly implicated as a co-conspirator.

Could Obama please make up his mind? He was praising Comey a few days ago.

Maybe he got a Subpoena?

“The FBI can’t touch Obama.”

Wanna bet? They already are. The decent moles in the FBI and spy agencies are already outing all the RATS including Obola. He has an insurrection on his hands and my bet is he doesn’t know how to stop it.
