House Judiciary Committee Chairman Bob Goodlatte has a lot of questions for FBI Director James Comey, given the news that Comey won't recommend criminal charges against former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton for her mishandling of classified information.

I wonder if this puzzling behavior is the result of blackmail? It is the Chicago way.

There are rumors that “Guccifer”, the foreign hacker who first broke the news about Hillary’s email server, has been moved from his place of imprisonment and the FBI does not know where he is. It may or may not be so, but if it is, he may be in serious danger.

Obama, Hill & Bill are capable of anything.

Those geldings in congress won’t do a thing. What a joke. Flush every one of them just as you would do if you found them in your commode.

Comey had to know he would have this coming when he made his statement. Anyone else sense there was enormous outside pressure to not indict and he decided to muddy the waters by laying out the criminal case and also state that future violators would be prosecuted for similar actions?

He made sure this didn't end it and may want Hillary gone as much as we do, but didn't dare do it the right way.

This is where all the congressmen express how they are 'deeply concerned' and then pull a Comey and just say 'there is nothing we can do(sigh).' They will behave just like Comey, it is fitting they shame themselves in the same manner.

How is that any different than what private citizens will do about this? If we do not launch protests in the streets, but sit and sigh, do we not shame ourselves?

Our representatives surely do represent us.

I tend to agree. He damned her with faint praise. The thing that gets me is all the contradictions in his statement. He said it is not the job of the FBI to prosecute and then turned right around and said they wouldn’t even present the evidence to the justice department. But then again Lynch telegraphed this when she said she’d accept his recommendation. She knew.

I have no questions for Comey, Hillary any of them. There is nothing to discuss.

The corrupt plutocrats rule in DC—end of story.

Do you really believe the rule of law matters to anyone on the other side when it comes to these people? Hillary’s not going to be elected, she’s going to be INSTALLED.

Who’s going to prosecute the fbi director? the corrupt justice department?

As long as there are democrats in power, the abuse of power will continue.

Yes, more kabuki theater and the chance for each individual critter to grandstand. No cogent strategy. Will make Hillary look better.

In the olden days of ROME when a politician had to say what he did, that person would then go home in shame, put his affairs in order and hang himself or open a vein.

When choosing between her own privacy concerns and the protection and safety of this country she giddily chose herself and her needs and put everybody else at risk. Nice.

Just heard on FOX a hearing will take place tomorrow.

Comey needs to be asked point blank, for the record, WHY no reasonable prosecutor would take on such a case.

Make him say it to our faces, while under oath.

I think the words LIE, LYIN’ have been used SO MUCH that they have lost their punch. Remember when people would GASP when someone called someone else a flat-out liar? “Liar” or he lies used to be close to a forbidden word. But we have heard it so much now that we can barely hear it. Unfortunately it now will take going to the next level to make people even notice it at all. Hillary has been lying and being called out on it for 20 years now and it is like “so?”
