In reply to the discussion: Maher's panel last night on Comey [View all]Gabi Hayes
(28,795 posts)25. not one mention of the fact that he's been on her ass since
the SECOND whitewater BS inquisition, which followed after they FIRED the first guy because he demonstrated that there was no there there
has everybody defending this crooked, right wing tool conveniently forgotten that?
and what about this, in which his completely inexplicable, unprofessional behavior is unmasked, when he's forced to admit exactly how many emails were classified:
If youre like most Americans, you dont know that when Comey testified, he was forced to walk back his assertion that the FBI found three (out of 30,000) documents marked classified among her emails.
Were they properly marked? Rep. Matt Cartwright (D-PA) asked.
No, Comey answered.
So wouldnt the absence of such markings tell her immediately that those three documents were not classified?
That would be a reasonable inference, Comey said.
In other words, contrary to the FBI directors grandstanding press conference and a million Republicans chanting Hillary lied, there were zero documents marked classified on her server. Not one.
So was Comey dissembling during his press conference? Or had he made an honest error? Pundits like Purdum know better than to ask. He never acknowledged Comeys walk back. No, the real issue was Hillarys sloppiness, and her forgetting Comey used that exact word.

If you follow your reasoning, Comey tipped the scale in favour of a man to win who he was already

It's possible Comey is neither a hero or a villain but a flawed person doing a difficult job
