Hillary Clinton Email Investigation FBI Director James Comey testifies before the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee on the FBI’s investigation into Hillary…

[surrey]

He’s done himself no good today. He’s seems to know nothing.

[Zeneta]

This can go on and on for days.

Comey says Hillary broke the law, here, here and here.

But, I can’t get a conviction.

She was negligent, very careless and possibly clueless.

But I can’t bring or recommend prosecution because I know she will find a way out.

Question to Comey, “Is it the FBI’s role to determine Guilt”?

Yes or No.

[nutmeg]

It's stunning to me how many questions there have been to Comey that he replies: "I don't know... I'm not sure..."

WTF??

Rep. Mulvaney (R-SC) doing a great job right now...

[djstex]

I see that idiot behind all day snickering. Didn’t know who he was until you said it.

[hsmomx3]

He’s probably there to take notes for Hillary ads to attack the Republican party and Trump.

[JenB987]

Remaining ambiguous is a good way to save your own ass.

[Darnright]

> I think he’s lying at times, or trying to cover Hillary’s crimes up.<

Agreed. Talk about a textbook example of weasel words!

[nutmeg]

And Hillary's staffers broke the law, but no punishment or prosecution. And Comey wouldn't say "in a public setting" why he granted Pagliano immunity.

Everything I've heard out of Comey's mouth today is pure utter BS.

[djstex]

Agree!

[Robwin]

He either doesn’t know nothing or can’t say. Neat

[Yaelle]

She gets protected from criminal charges because she is running for a job she should’t be running for because she is a criminal.

Perfect sentence.

(Jacked up country tho)

[Kenny]

One of the best questions of the day is, why weren’t people down the chain investigated as they obviously participated in sending/receiving classified documents.

[Grampa Dave]

“Is Byrnes talking about when she was First Lady? Did they have iPads back then?”

He has a section on what she did as SOS, and his comments, where post Clintoon Out House.

[nutmeg]

Yup. Comey apparently learned well from his bud Hillary. "I can't recall.... I can't remember...."

These Feds will go to great lengths to protect their almighty Federal pension.

[Yaelle]

statements by Comey, “Beyond a Reasonable Doubt”

Does this standard actually exist for cases like this?

---

I would say that such a value only applies to deliberation in a criminal case. Cummy is a COP. He sees any EVIDENCE for a crime, he recommends indictment by attorneys. It’s not his place to play jury!

[Lakeside Granny]

“Look at lib Bruce Halpern behind Comey snickering, with his nose in the air.”

I think you mean Mark Halperin senior political correspondent from MSNBC and Bloomberg News.

[nutmeg]

EXACTLY. And Comey is going to great lengths to protect that almighty bigass Federal pension. The country be damned... Can’t screw up that pension!

[JenB987]

His constant tap-dancing and word play was painful.

[refermech]

Yup, typical beerocrat covering his ass. Looks very haggard. I think he fears for his families health. It’s the only explanantion.

[maggief]

“Something may seem squirrelly here ...”

Beyond squirrelly ... it stinks to high heaven!
