To be clear, I do not share the same praise for Comey. But I'm willing to consider more information before passing judgement (though the Russian election influencing he avoided announcing that came out today is pushing me away ...)
no surprise there... chillfactor Oct 2016 #1
The truth is exposed, Comey keeps flailing, he'll keep sinking deeper into a quagmire of shit. NBachers Oct 2016 #2
Comey-Stain IS the "quagmire of shit"! InAbLuEsTaTe Oct 2016 #77

Exactly! He needs to be prosecuted!!!! AgadorSparticus Oct 2016 #68
Comey never said the email were or weren't. Wilms Oct 2016 #11
Maybe he didn't intentionally lie, but he has truly and royally fucked up. Totally botched this. RBInMaine Oct 2016 #12
That's fine. There's a lot to point out and argue about him, at best, screwing up. Wilms Oct 2016 #13
WTF? Cosmocat Oct 2016 #15
If they were not sent from Clinton's server, which was a major part of the subject uponit7771 Oct 2016 #20
Your first paragraph is a reasonable argument. Wilms Oct 2016 #23
More bullshit! Making excuses for Comney that you know are lies? He doesn't know the email headers. bettyellen Oct 2016 #41
I made a logical argument based on what information we have. Wilms Oct 2016 #42
Bullshit- he has NOT seen the emails, their headers, nothing. You're making shit up to defend Comey. bettyellen Oct 2016 #43
I'm sure he'll be able to back up why he thinks it's pertinent... Wilms Oct 2016 #44
You're defending him based on a lie that they saw headers. Why carry Trumps water? bettyellen Oct 2016 #45
You are the one not telling the truth. Wilms Oct 2016 #46
Comey did not see "subject line" headers or anything - why lie to cover for him? Why carry water for bettyellen Oct 2016 #47
Do you have a link to support that? Wilms Oct 2016 #48
Comey also sent a letter to the FBI mercuryblues Oct 2016 #53
Oh. I see. Wilms Oct 2016 #56
Yes, you should mercuryblues Oct 2016 #58
But you're stretching. Wilms Oct 2016 #59

Comey said they had a bearing on the Clinton case they don't Demsrule86 Oct 2016 #26
Oh. "they don't" have "bearing on the Clinton case". Wilms Oct 2016 #28
Definitely... Demsrule86 Oct 2016 #35
Just trying to keep it real. Wilms Oct 2016 #37
It actually would- to be directly related to Clinton- but keep on trucking... bettyellen Oct 2016 #38
Are you agreeing that it could "be directly related to Clinton"?? Wilms Oct 2016 #39
No matter how you Comey and Trump try to spin this- if there is no direct connection to her server bettyellen Oct 2016 #40
No matter your protest, I have put forward a rational set of ideas. Wilms Oct 2016 #63
Ideas excusing Combey based on a fabrication? He never saw the emails and has no idea.... bettyellen Oct 2016 #66
OK. I give up. Wilms Oct 2016 #67

The pressure HAS to be kept on Comey, Democrats have done a great job since this broke on Friday, OnDoutside Oct 2016 #19

Yes exactly! There is nothing else more important at this point. anamandujano Oct 2016 #31
Comey couldn't care less if the emails were between Huma and Amazon dalton99 Oct 2016 #24
It is also clear that Comey colluded with Chavez Demsrule86 Oct 2016 #25
Chaffetz is the weasel in the mix. Investigate their emails misterhighwasted Oct 2016 #27
^^Yep!^^ PearliePoo2 Oct 2016 #34
that's a good point but the sheeple will not "get it" if Chaffetz is wordpix Oct 2016 #32
Yes! I think it was Jennifer Granholm on MSNBC that brought this little tidbit up! PearliePoo2 Oct 2016 #33
Jennifer Granholm fan here also. If she's publicly bringing in Chaffetz misterhighwasted Oct 2016 #36
