An old term from Hawaii is "f***head." And that is the phrase for Comey.

[Akamai]

Born and raised in Hawaii (my wife was born in the same hospital Obama was -- Kapiolani -- and graduated from the same high school he did -- Punahou), I heard this term often.

I think it fits Comey now. He has grown into the term, has a real chance of wreaking on everything we hold dear, and shows an absolute lack of concern for the course of actions he embarked on. He indeed has no "sense of decency, sir!" If he is being honest, he is a little boy in a grown up position. He at least shows he has absolutely not sense of proportion.

As a psychologist, i see many, many people justifying the behaviors they take, even if their reasoning is absolutely in error. But the idea that the head of the FBI, an attorney of long-standing, of a network of colleagues who inform him of his duties and the consequences of overstepping his mandates, could repeatedly make such absolutely egregious errors indicates to me that he and Trump have a lot in common -- a lack of concern about average people.

Trump and Comey remind me of the line from King Lear: "As flies to wanton boys are we to th' gods, They kill us for their sport." Clearly Comey, for all of the reasonable things he has done previously, has absolutely little or no concern about the impact of his self-indulgent behavior on the citizens of this country, of the world. What a fraud, what a hollow man. What a thing of straw.

Just because in some small portion of his world he could justify his actions doesn't mean they are not wrong and incredibly harmful.

Really, I will never hear his name again and think, "We owe him respect." Even W. Bush, said, "Fool me once, shame on you... Fool me twice" and he meant to say, "Fool me twice, shame on me." I will not be fooled into thinking we owe this f***head any respect at all in the future.

3. Is that why I use that term?!

Aloha, Akamai.. Mahalo!

4. The FBI and it's employees will forever be drenched with the stench of Comey.

And I think Trump was pre-informed.

Never forget the parable of the scorpion. Never bring republicans into a Democratic administration.

5. Great post, Akamai!

One article I read described Comey as self righteous, and I believe that fits him perfectly. He and only he is the sole arbiter of ethics and morals. He gets no respect from me either.
