Comey's Hillary decision requires "the willing suspension of disbelief"

2016-07-10

[LI] Suspension of disbelief is the term that came to mind when I watched FBI Director James Comey’s decision to recommend no charges against Hillary.

As Comey went through the litany of Hillary's misdeeds, lies, defalcations of duty, extreme carelessness, cunning and risks to national security, Comey made the case for any of a series of charges against Hillary. Then, with the reputation of the FBI about to be vindicated, Comey dropped the dreaded "however."

In House testimony, Comey again confirmed every factual point demanding prosecution, yet defended his decision not to recommend charges because he was treating Hillary just like he would any other citizen.

Can anyone seriously claim, as Comey has, that Hillary was treated as any other citizen would? It's laughable and requires the suspension of disbelief. Either Comey is the dumbest person on earth, or he thinks we are.

#5 I wasn't around for that; I'm sure it was buttered joke on cheese.

Well were was that bridge incident on Chappaquiddick Island in 1969. Nobody went to jail then either.

#2 John, the HillaryBots only want power. Nothing else matters. It's their faction against the world. Treat them the same.

#1 I'm reading Gary Byrnes "Crisis of Character." It is about the stench placed on the WH by the Clintons and the cover up of Slick Willie's peccadillos. Hillary's email scandal reads about like Bills scandal. Wherever they are and whatever they do, they take a lot of people down with themselves. Those HillaryBots really should ask themselves: "Do we really want these people to have another go at the WH. Do we really want serial scandals again? Do we want them to occupy the WH and use it as their own personal piggybank with no oversight? Do we really want this culture of corruption again?"
