#1 Has anyone seen my shocked face?

I can't seem to find it.

#2 Comey pretty much needs what was done to Dr. Mudd. Maybe on one of those robot sub hunters, with scant provisions...

#4 Comey admits the fix was in w/re to Clinton's emails. Moreover, the fix was in at the highest level (Obama) and directed downwards through the DOJ. Lynch said she would abide by Comey's decision (if anyone believes that--after all, he reported to her). If Comey had such a crisis of consciousness, why didn't he resign from director of the FBI? McCarthy acknowledges there is a double standard for justice; one for Trump and another for HRC.

Comey Did Not Leak Classified Information.
Then why is the memo marked Secret and parts of it redacted out?

POTUS has executive privilege; the privilege is not accorded to Comey. By releasing the memos of a private conversation, is Comey not denying Trump his executive privilege. Obama exercised his executive privilege when Eric Holder was charged with criminal perjury for lying to Congress about F&F. Obama exercised his executive privilege to not have the DOJ prosecute Holder who was the AG and the head of DOJ thus creating a legal ClusterF*&%.

Hopefully, the DOJ is cleaning up this legal mess. It seems like the best way to clean it up is to charge Comey (if he has not already been charged) and let the courts decide the legality of this rather than speculate.

I can't speak for others, but I for one would like to see the rule of law re-established and justice done.

Amen, and amen. We've all thought Soetoro was at the bottom of this since it all began. Appears we might have been right.

#6 No, Obama was not 'at the bottom ' (top) - someone was handling him, ValJar and unknown others.

#7 Nah, I'm pretty sure Obama's been the bottom many times in his life.

But as for the story: Who didn't know this from day one?
