"There's nothing to see here."

Even if FBI Director James Comey had 100 agents reading collating and considering the 650,000 emails in the new investigation into Hillary Clinton’s handling of classified material, it is hard to see how this much material could have been properly digested and done justice in the ten days he had to work on this investigation.
But even if he did have these agents completely dedicated to this new investigation the numbers say this was a Herculean task that does not pass the smell test.
Research shows “The average college graduate stops 75 times to read each of his 100 words. Great compared to the 3rd grader, but slow and boring, and inefficient.”

Assuming that each email is one hundred words (which is might be a low number) that comes to 65 million words to read. FBI agents are college graduates and most are lawyers; but it is hard to imagine them speed reading through material as critical to the nation’s wellbeing as these 650,000 emails.
If we allow for turnover time, handling these emails, whether printed out in the worst case or on a computer screen at the best, the time we can reasonably assign to reviewing each email has to be two minutes for those considered frivolous and much more for those immediately deemed important. Anyone who has done this type of plodding searching research, requiring sifting through mountains of words, knows this is the case.
Reason says, some even the shortest emails of fifty words, might require an extended period of say three minutes to weigh their contents for relevance in a larger context.
Thereafter those deemed suspicious would require a “Stop the presses” conference which would eat up more time. When such an inevitable stoppage occurs everyone at the table – another logistic impossibility – would necessarily have to stop and listen to the finding and consider whether what was just found is valuable to a pattern he or she is mentally building given the emails before him/her.
The average number of words on a page in a novel which presumably has a coherent flow and is therefore easier to read and digest, is 300 words. This means the equivalent of 21,000 pages of flowing text which is not broken by changes in subject and mental construction to be weighed against possible federal law violation.
Using the most generous allowance for Comey and his FBI team to have reexamined the 650,000 emails involved in the new investigation, and assuming they worked every minute of every hour they were at it, the crew worked for 14,400 minutes on this project just reading without interruption for reconsideration, stretching bathroom breaks etc.

The records show the longest known book in the English language is L. Ron Hubbard’s The Invader’s Plan which is 1.2 million words. So the 65 million words of emails are the equivalent of 54 of Hubbard’s books. Does it seem logical to believe they read all that material happened?
Properly investigating this pile of emails would require 100 agents putting in 3600 man hours with no stopping for consultation with other agents when a pattern was detected.
This does not include the coordination of original FBI notes with newly discovered findings.
It is simply not reasonable to believe the FBI did justice to a review of 650,000 emails it had to collate for subject matter and consider in an overview while weighing it all for violations of federal law.
Woody Allen once said this about speed reading “I took a speed-reading course and read War and Peace in twenty minutes. It involves Russia.”

Woody Allen is a comedian; what Comey did is not at all funny.
Just compare this with how long they claim they needed to read the prior emails when they were dragging their heels.
They had to hurry up the cover-up
Comey articulated a false standard of legal “intent” in his July statement. He said she had no intent to violate the espionage statute. But the relevant “intent” is whether she consciously and intentionally stored and transmitted national security information on her private server. Obviously, she did, since she set it up for exclusive use of her SOS communications knowing that she deals in national secrets on a daily basis and she did in fact have thousands of instances of national secrets on it.
After laughably concluding she was merely extremely careless, Comey then went on and wrongly the part of the statute that applied to extreme carelessness was unconstitutional.
Having set up a phony standard to apply to her, we could have video of Hillary handing national secrets to the head of ISIS and Comey would say “it doesn’t change my conclusions from July.”
Hacks on CNN seem bummed out. All the emails were personal, and duplicates. Also the FBI had a Magic software to verify all this in 8 days.
Yeaaa.
The allegations that came out last week will not be overlooked. Comey is now. Again a distinguished figure. Lol.
Wolfie, and court of Jesters want Trumps supporters to Stop saying Lock Her Up.
Best Election ever!!
Go Trump
"There's nothing to see here."
They have a computer program that allows them to go through 650,000 emails per minute. 400,000 of these emails dealt exclusively with yoga lessons. Another 200,000 or so dealt with wedding arrangements. That is why the maid was involved. They made no mention of the paper boy who also assisted at times. There are probably FBI agents jumping out of their skins right now.
Precisely
The maid story is an outright felony
Comey honest? (stifling a lol)
Someone in the Friends of Bill C. club for that long has parted way with honesty a long time ago, if indeed he was ever so acquainted.
Of course he didn’t.
That’s twice that Comey has dropped the ball. He’s quite the G(irly)-Man.
That is because Comey did not come to an honest conclusion. Comey does not have an honest atom in his body. He is totally owned body and soul by the Clintons.
It doesn’t take long for a computer to compare email headers against a metadata database.
It’s just more whitewash. The FBI is hopelessly corrupted.
The FBI did not say 650,000 emails.
They might have automated it.
CHANGE THE SUBJECT. THIS WILL NOT WIN TUESDAY.
“That’s twice that Comey has dropped the ball. He’s quite the G(irly)-Man.”
Actually, Comey is doing exactly what he was put in place to do, and that’s to ensure that no investigations succeed against whomever the DNC has in power at the time.
No one thing will win Tuesday—so you really don’t want to go there.
Actually, this is the FOURTH TIME Comey has let the Clintons off the hook. He has investigated them twice before the email investigation. So any time they need to be exonerated, who you gonna call? Comey! He is their “Get Out of Jail Free” Card.
