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.”

If he had any stones he would resign
Comey and his FBI are effing TRAITORS!
They literally ended the Rule of Law July 5th.
If there were any Justice in any corner of the DO”J” and particularly the FBI, they would be in prison for LIFE.
Weasel is probably the nicest thing I can call them now. There are some really really nasty words to describe them. I’ve forgotten what they are . . .. . But I know they are nasty.
“I used to admire the FBI.
Not any more.
Disband them.”
My sentiments exactly. Sorry, Efrem Zimbalist and Jimmy Stewart and all the rest. Guess you are now one with all the other fables of my childhood.
Oh yeah, FU Comey.
“Intent” is not part of the statute.
And by the way, deleting e-mails through extraordinary means and smashing phones with hammers when both those things are under subpoena is quite intentional.
Friends of Bill and Islam, through and through.
Hw wouldn't be emotional about it if it were not true. He would be protesting with vigor, the weasel.
“I AM NOT A WEASEL”
The first thing I hope Trump does, is fire this SOB.
The second thing is to arrest him.
If I were comeny, I would seek asylum in another country.
You can’t tell me Comey isn’t in the tank for Hitlary. For God’s sake, doesn’t he sit on the Clinton Foundation Board of Directors and you know damn well that is a paid position? He needs to be charged himself for “obstruction”.
Please do allow this news story to undermine your faith in the integrity of the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
Comey and the rest of the FBI (you didn’t resign) are corrupt, political, elite, inept, lying government tools working at the behest of the Obama/Clinton/Moslem Brother Agenda.
Either 'Mr. Law & Order' Comey has been replaced with a lookalike Comey or he has been hypnotized to keep the Clinton and her Crew out of jail.
Weasels HATE to be called weasels!
Weasel jercough!
He's not a mere weasel. He's part of the same criminal conspiracy. There is a difference.
>>>“I AM NOT A WEASEL”<<<
