I'm eagerly awaiting some investigation leaks to start dripping over the next few months. I don't expect it to change anything but it will help to restore som credibility to the FBI.

Everyone say hello to your new president. So sad and angry right now. Helpless is an appropriate description of how many people are feeling. I really hope this pushes more voters over to Trump. She will not have the same level of fervent public support that obama enjoyed in his two campaigns. If the republican base would get solidly behind Trump we wouldn't have to worry about a president hillary. It would actually be a breeze. But as we all can see, that is not what's happening. Many in the GOP, including posters on this gun site, prefer what we witnessed today over what might happen under a president Trump. |

The outcome of the recommendation isn't his concern. The outcome of his fact-finding investigation is, and the first half of his speech made it VERY clear what it found. A lot of folks, in mil and some other govt sectors, take oaths. Many never get the chance to really decide to do the right thing by it, at potential great personal cost. He got that chance, and choose poorly. His thoughts/statements about pressure or expectations be damned- personal courage CAN happen outside the battlefield in the face of choosing to do what is right versus an easier wrong.

I get that vibe as well. I think he was pressured and I think he personally strongly disagrees with the final outcome. I also think he is submitting because he knows there will be no victory or win for him in saying what he truly believes. I suppose that qualifies him as a coward in some respects.

His whole statement was about her mishandling of classified information. The whole reason this happened in the first place was because of her deliberate attempt to circumvent open records law. Comey was absolutely silent on this. View Quote I posted before seeing yours. Everyone is so fixated on the classified information that they seem to overlook this important (I believe more important) aspect - that her actions in setting up the private server could only have been to keep all of her information hidden from her department and, therefore, from the public. What was that about Nixon getting in hot water for 18 minutes of missing tape? Here we have an untold number of emails that were erased with only the say-so of the person erasing them that those emails weren't information that should be subject to government records retention requirements. |

View Quote And I hate them as much as I hate the stooges in the Gov. I have said it before, fuck all liberals. They are not our Countrymen, they are traitors and scum. They are the enemy, pure and simple. Every. Fucking. One. They are as big as enemies as the Germans and Japanese in WWII. Maybe bigger, since they are destroying the country from within. Never forget that. They deserve to treated as the enemies they are. If they are ever defeated (ha, fat chance now), they cannot be allowed to live amongst us. They must be banished to a country of their own, never to taint the goodness of Freedom again. You cannot live in peace amongst them. |

Could it be possible he was pressured into that and doesn't actually agree with the outcome? I mean, I know it was pre-scripted, but why spend all of that time planting the idea that she was careless, committed a crime, etc...

There is evidence to support a conclusion that any reasonable person in Secretary Clinton’s position, or in the position of those government employees with whom she was corresponding about these matters, should have known that an unclassified system was no place for that conversation. In addition to this highly sensitive information, we also found information that was properly classified as Secret by the U.S. Intelligence Community at the time it was discussed on e-mail None of these e-mails should have been on any kind of unclassified system, but their presence is especially concerning because all of these e-mails were housed on unclassified personal servers not even supported by full-time security staff, We do assess that hostile actors gained access to the private commercial e-mail accounts of people with whom Secretary Clinton was in regular contact from her personal account.

Someone posted this on Yahoo, I thought I'd share it
"In the hopes of clearing my family name, and in the sincere desire to give my children the fair share of the American way of life, without a blemish on their name and background, I have appeared before this committee and given it all the cooperation in my power. I consider it a great dishonor to me personally to have to deny that I am a criminal. I wish to have the following noted for the record: that I served my country faithfully and honorably in World War II and was awarded the Navy Cross for actions in defense of my country; that I have never been arrested or indicted for any crime whatsoever; that no proof linking me to any criminal conspiracy whether it is called "Mafia" or "Cosa Nostra" or whatever other name you wish to give has ever been made public. I have not taken refuge behind the 5th amendment, though it is my right to do. I challenge this committee to produce any witness or evidence against me. And if they do not, I hope they will have the decency to clear my name with the same publicity with which they now have besmirched it." |

Nobody but nobody should be defending Comey in the least. The deck was stacked? He saw the writing on the wall? Fuck you, resign then. Men and women have bled out and died defending the rule of law, if you think that the corruption has become too great then get the fuck out and turn down that paycheck.
I don't give a shit what Comey said today, or how he kinda sorta backhanded indicted her by calling her a,iar and negligent. He didn't recco charges. HE IS AS COMPLICIT AS HILLARY HERSELF. Fuck him. |
