I thought Buck's questioning was on point, but no doubt it will not play well in the media given the complexity of his points.

The bottom line is that Hillary was a federal employee and treated differently. Comey said that if anyone employed by the FBI did what Hillary did, they would be subject to a robust suitability hearing with a reprimand being a minimum and termination possible. There would be consequences. So what consequences does Hillary face?

The "beyond a reasonable doubt" standard applies to the quality of the evidence, and the counter-evidence, at trial. It is the standard for conviction, not for prosecution.

The legal standard that the FBI uses to forward a file to the DOJ is "probable cause" a crime was committed.

[T]his Comey hearing this morning smacks way too much of giving him the chance too refine and rework his remakes at his press conference.

BINGO.

He totally FUBARed his first "audition". This is his DO-OVER.

The Dems are only too happy to apply white-out to his original statements or revise what he "meant."

Worst Kabuki Theater ever.

Wow.

You can feel that something very dark is going on by watching Comey twist himself in a pretzel to protect her today.

He has a very strange micro-expression - have you noticed how he bares his teeth while talking? Something is very wrong.

And another question: are you aware if Ms Clinton actually read her emails as SOS? Any REASONABLE person, in the position of SOS, should read their emails, yes? And if she read the emails with the classified stamp in the body of the message, she SHOULD HAVE KNOWN SHE WAS TRANSMITTING CLASSIFIED INFORMATION OVER AN UNSECURE SERVER???’

The interesting part of this whole setup is that the Loretta/Bubba meeting set the stage for Comey to speak instead of Lynch. Clever...

Remember, Comey is a Republican and totally expendable. I'll give him two days before he resigns or takes a walk in Marcy park.

I do think he is unstable at this point.

I've only unfortunately only been able to watch a few minutes of this hearing, and can't stay long now. Rep. Hurd of Texas was outstanding! For some reason, I've never heard of him before. Anyone know if he is new to the House?

God bless Texas!

Just more proof, if any more were needed, that the Clinton’s soil and corrupt everything they come in contact with. And when history gave Comey the opportunity to strike a blow for justice and truth he sits there lying and dissembling as shamelessly as any crook or con man ever did.

But the laws and guidelines for handling classified material are like the traffic laws. They are there to prevent bad things from happening and simply failing to follow those laws is a crime no matter what was intended or whether there were any bad outcomes. - They are laws to prevent bad outcomes.

This is one of the most disgusting episodes in US politics for many decades.

Aha, he thinks the statue weak, and DOJ won’t use it because it presumably “would be challenged on constitutional grounds.” FBI director has peculiar powers.

-- Re post 565: EXCELLENT! Now is there any FReeper who can get this to any of the Congressmen in real time? --

Bypass the government, bypass Congress, bypass Comey - get that on the front page of the NYT, WaPo, cable news, and so on. Take it straight to the people.

The government has given its story, now they live with it.

They should ask Comey if he would trust HRC to have her finger on the nuclear button.

"Let it be said that when America was down on her knees being raped by the triad of traitors....Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton and Barrack O-bama, not one...nada....zippo..democrat Senator or Congressman stood to defend our Constitution, the rule of law...."

The republicans are even worse. They stood silent as an illegal, ineligible usurper was installed as commander-in-chief, and then ran three ineligible candidates for the same office.

“Is Chaffetz fully supporting the one person who can keep Hillary out of the White House? No. That tells you all you need to know about how serious Hillary’s crimes are to the GOP.”

Because Chaffetz, like the rest of the GOP office-holders, are worried that Trump will impinge on them collecting the dirty, filthy money that makes them wealthy beyond imagination. Chaffetz is a criminal passing gentle judgment here on an even bigger-badder criminal.

The Clinton episode (which unfortunately does not seem to have ended yet) is definitely one of the most disgusting periods of your fair republic.
