Comey on Clinton email probe: ‘Don’t call us weasels’ … The normally-stoic FBI chief grew emotional as he rejected claims that the FBI was in the tank for Clinton.
-Politico
James Comey appeared today before the House Judiciary Committee to answer questions about the FBI’s decision not to recommend prosecution of Hillary Clinton regarding misuse of classified emails – and in the process told members that once the politics stopped circulating, the FBI would again be seen as the institution “you know and love.”
This hyperbolic statement certainly set the tone for the larger hearing which saw Comey testifying with unusual emotionalism, adding at one point that people ought not to see those involved in the decision as “weasels.”
“You can call us wrong, but don’t call us weasels. We are not weasels,” he said. “We are honest people and….whether or not you agree with the result, this was done the way you want it to be done.”
Despite Hillary’s destruction of various phones with hammers (to mention only one issue), he spent several hours insisting, often querulously, that there was no evidence that she intended to obstruct justice or to hide evidence. His statements were mostly a repetition of already presented justifications. As they made little sense previously, they added neither clarity nor insight.
Republican congressmen – many of whom were increasingly incredulous – pressed him in startling ways. Several virtually demanded he reopen the case and others told him bluntly that “you blew it.”
“I would be in big trouble and I should be in big trouble if I did something like that,” said Rep. James Sensenbrenner (R-Wis.). “There seems to be different strokes for different folks. I think there’s a heavy hand coming from someplace else.”

WEASELS
The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
How about filthy, stinking weasels.
I used to admire the FBI.
Not any more.
Disband them.

Aw, is poor widdle Jimmy upset we called them weasels? Well, too bad. If you act like a weasel, then you ARE a weasel.
then there is that duck feather, waddle and quack thing
Better now, Mr. Comey?
Weird Al Yankovic....Weasel Stomping Time
others told him bluntly that “you blew it.”
Comey didn’t blow it he abandoned his sworn duty. Period.
Remember all the reports that the FBI agents would resign in droves if Hillary skated on these charges? Well, why are those WEASELS still there?
And “Comey is a straight shooter....” Well, maybe he’s accurate on the range, but he’s a WEASEL outside of it!
Comey, on television, destroyed our Republic.
Screw him.
Comey should be charged with obstruction of justice after DJT is elected. He participated in the coverup no doubt.
Johhny Weasel’s 15 minutes are almost up.
Time to exit stage left.
Pretty obvious who he works for now.
Too bad LaVoy Finicum had to find out the hard way.
BS!! He threw the game, he didn't blow it. He willfully decided to not recommend prosecution because it would have led straight to Obama. String him up!! Put him in the cell next to Hellary.
Comey corrupted the FBI for his friends in the White House and Hillary Clinton.
No if you and the FBI harbor a traitor, you are worst than a weasel. Fifteen minutes after Trump is sworn in you and the top five levels of management should all be fired and anyone who worked on the cover up should be set to Alaska.
Comey was well paid. He doesn’t give a damn about anything else. Congress is wasting its time (what a surprise).
