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.

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

“Praise” didn’t work, so he’s implementing Plan B!

Well that certainly contrasts with what Earnest said :)

Still, I dont trust this regime AT ALL.

He is unlike ANY president we’ve ever had. He has NO REGARD for the constitution and HATES America. In particular, whites.

I’ll rest in January when he’s out.

He’s a communist. They don’t believe in elections.

It’s time to put the dog down. I hope that he unleashes all the might that the FBI has against him

Obama can say and do whatever he wants. His “Justice” Dept. and the Media protect him. The FBI can’t touch Obama.

Plan B is imploding (assigning Kadzic to oversee the email investigation...WikiLeaks is blowing that up today).

So it’s on to Plan C.
Bash Comey from the Bully Pulpit.

Comey should publicly announce that he provided Obama with some of the emails they’ve found so Obama can show voters concrete evidence instead of innuendo.

Really, then let the FBI go public with ALL the stuff they've got.

All our enemies have already read the stuff and passed it around.

Maybe it's time the American people got a change to look at this stuff... we paid for all these criminals to play "I'm so Important"... they did it on the taxpayers dime.

So, yeah open it up... let the FBI put it ALL on the table.
