Comey drafted Clinton Exoneration...

[Stinger]

But, the letter proves Comey was not in the tank for Hillary, as I said a couple of times now.

No it does not, it proves he had backed himself in a corner during his Congressional testimony.

 

[haymarket]

No but I do note you statements of fact for which you have no basis.

So what on the server exonerated Clinton and her staff that you claim Comey knew about?

Do you also operate under the delusion that I have seen all the evidence Comey and his team has seen?

 

[haymarket]

You don't write memos and start planning how you are going to exonerate when you have not even interviewed the witnesses ESPECIALLY when the entire bogus exoneration was based on the motives and intents of those persons NOT on what was found on the server. And already explained how he had boxed himself in to have to tell Congress about the emails on the Wiener server.

You do things your way - other people with the actual jobs and responsibilities do things they way they see as best.

 

[haymarket]

When did it go to court to be decided? This was never allowed to be closed.

I do not share your obsession with what has already been decided and put to the curb to be picked up with the rest of the trash.

 

[Nilly]

Wow. A draft. People are this up in arms about a draft? Really? I have more drafts in outlook than I have sent or received emails combined.

Crazy how people will ignore transgrssion after transgression from Trump, but a draft that would potentially show Clinton to be innocent somehow makes her more guilty.

The mind boggles.

 

[calamity]

No it does not, it proves he had backed himself in a corner during his Congressional testimony.

nonsense

 

[vesper]

You don't know what Comey had or had not at that time and not having interviewed any of the witnesses had no idea what intents or motives were involved which was the ONLY reason he said he chose not to prosecute, a decision which was not even his to make.

But do tell us what was on the server that exonerated Clinton and members of her staff.

Didn't the first batch of FBI documents reveal that Clinton's close aide (s) destroyed several ipads, blackberries with hammers that were used in relation with Clinton's server? An act that is clearly against the rules?

They did, just ignore that obstruction, though. She wasn't President.

When all one has is a hammer, everything looks like a nail. These yokels have been droolingly obsessed with Hillary for decades.

 

[Stinger]

And certainly would not have exonerated anyone.

 

[Stinger]

When all one has is a hammer, everything looks like a nail. These yokels have been droolingly obsessed with Hillary for decades.

Only because she continually gives cause and the Dems and the left were warned before they nominated her about the baggage she would bring.

I can well imagine if Mueller asked for White House emails and Trump announced they all have been using an unsecure Trump email server for all their official emails and they have now destroyed that server and all the information on it you would not be a happy camper.

Quite frankly I'm would be surprised they aren't following the Clinton lead in doing so as to avoid any scrutiny.

 

[American]

She made mistakes. No doubt about it. I have never said otherwise.

And despite that she still garnered more than 2.8 million MORE VOTES that the other guy.

Come played a role in her electoral defeat and so did the Russians.

All from California from what I read. Nevertheless it's irrelevant.

 

[Stinger]

S
And despite that she still garnered more than 2.8 million MORE VOTES that the other guy.

In which state?

 

[holbritter]

the time line. Some people work that way and it appears Comey was a guy who liked to get his thoughts down in a timely manner as things evolved. We saw that in his testimony where he referred to all the memo's he wrote as things were developing. This is no different.

He has no obligation to show you any other letter because the material he was seeing failed to show any criminality.

You see Maggie... I don't waste my time thinking about what I would do on a weekend in the Florida Keys with just me and a Playboy centerfold model who thinks I am Gods gift to man and this is similar.



okay - I do waste my time thinking about that ........... never mind ........... bad example.

But you get the idea about Comey.

Haha! I was going to write LIAR! You're thinking that right now

 

[Mr Person]

Comey has become a lying hustler and shill for the Left. It was obvious he was letting her off the hook, and we called it. The Left just attacked us.

vs.

Was this before or after he lobbed a last-second nonsense grenade into the election?

Seriously American. Think for a sec. A "schill for the left" would not damage the Democratic candidate days before an election with what turned out to be BS.

That's not true:

The email investigation as 8 investigations into Benghazi was nothing more than a right wing political dog & pony show from the beginning. There was no crime committed, and if there was they would have had to charge Colin Powell and Condi Rice for the same crime.

"The bottom line: Democrats may try to turn the revelations about the email accounts used by Powell and Rice’s staff into a scandal. They may release press statements condemning the former secretaries of state; they may call for scores of unnecessary congressional hearings; they may go to the press and confidently proclaim that crimes were committed by these honorable Republicans. But it would all be lies. Powell and Rice did nothing wrong. This could be considered a scandal only by ignorant or lying partisans.

So there is no Powell or Rice email scandal. And no doubt, that will infuriate the Republicans who are trying so hard to trick people into believing Clinton committed a crime by doing the exact same thing as her predecessors."

The Shocking Truth: Colin Powell?s Emails Don?t Matter

Colin Powell & Condi Rice also received state department sensitive information on their private email accounts.

Furthermore, No one is going to believe that Comey FAVORED Hillary Clinton. Not after what he did to her 11 days before the election. Without Comey interferring into this election she would most certainly be the POTUS today. He broke long standing DOJ protocol by releasing information within 60 days of an election. He was warned by the DOJ to not do that, and did it anyway. Which is why he is also under investigation for his interference into the election. 7 days later and after millions of people voted, he gave birth to his nothing burger.

No doubt that James Comey needed to be fired. He has an ego that matches Trump's. But Trump should have fired him immediately upon walking into the Oval office door, as any other President would have done. Comey wasn't even supposed to give a speech to congress, that set off the arm chair legal team on FOX News. So he used the Clinton email investigation to showboat himself, and is really the only person that has committed a crime by breaking the Hatch act in the Constitution.

But Trump waited until the Russian investigation was well underway and then fired him, and now Trump is under investigation for Obstruction of Justice for that. And it sure doesn't help that Trump admitted he fired Comey over the Russian investigation during a televised interview with Lestor Holt on NBC.

nah - those 2.8 million came from 17 different states comprising 74 different communities - not one in California.

all 50

You should do more research.

no they wouldn't have becaause well the rules didn't exist until 2013 after they were no longer in office.

If comey was doing what he was supposed to do then there wouldn't be a pre-noted letter before the investigation was completed already letting her go.
we all knew the investigation was a shame nothing more. one of the largest miscarriages of justice we have seen.

 

[Stinger]

all 50

All 50 did not vote in the same election nor did DC. There was no national election no national vote, there were 51 separate and entirely unique elections. Tallying them all up into one result and claiming that the will of all the voters is folly.

You badly miss the point. Nobody can say from which state or states or communities those additional 2.8 million votes for Clinton came from. They could have been from anywhere and everywhere. That is the point .

 

[chuckiechan]

I know this is off topic, but I'd appreciate it if you'd be willing to share your opinion of Jeff Sessions' qualifications as AG compared to Holder and Lynch?

Thanks.

Then start your own thread instead of crapping this one.

 

[Stinger]

You badly miss the point. Nobody can say from which state or states or communities those additional 2.8 million votes for Clinton came from. They could have been from anywhere and everywhere. That is the point .

And it's a moot point, there was NO national election, we all did not vote in the same election under the same circumstances. I didn't vote for Trump in my state and I know a lot who did not but did not vote for Clinton either. My state was going overwhelming for Trump. Had it been closer I would have reconsidered. Those various circumstances in the separate and unique elections each state holds cannot be tallied together and then claimed as THE national vote or an indicator of what a national vote would have produced. Trump may have won a national popular vote, we don't know.

The STATES elect the President and Vice-President not the PEOPLE. Heck your state only allows you to even vote for your electors by the good graces of your state legislature.

 

[haymarket]

And it's a moot point,.....

Stop right there and go no further. The point that lots of Trumpkins attempt to make is that the 2.8 million more votes that Clinton got over Trump came from California. If we have heard that once we have heard it scores and scores of times. post 137 right here is just the latest example. And the point is that nobody can say where those 2.8 million votes came from as they could have come from anywhere in this nation and from everywhere in the nation.

That is the point.

Comey was incompetent, no doubt. But what is amazing is he was more than publicly open about Hillary Clinton's stupid emails, (that amounted to NOTHING) than a very serious ongoing investigation into the Trump's connections with Russia, and he knew about it all along. He never mentioned a word about this Russian investigation that he testified started in July 2017. And he also had knowledge that the UK and other foreign intelligence agencies had been watching Trump surrogates since 2015.
Comey says FBI began investigation into Russia meddling in July - LA Times

GCHQ-- first became aware in late 2015 of suspicious “interactions” between figures connected to Trump and known or suspected Russian agents, a source close to UK intelligence said. This intelligence was passed to the US as part of a routine exchange of information, they added.

Over the next six months, until summer 2016, a number of western agencies shared further information on contacts between Trump’s inner circle and Russians, sources said.

The European countries that passed on electronic intelligence – known as sigint – included Germany, Estonia and Poland. Australia, a member of the “Five Eyes” spying alliance that also includes the US, UK, Canada and New Zealand, also relayed material, one source said.

https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2017/apr/13/british-spies-first-to-spot-trump-team-links-russia

Now the question is, would you have voted for Trump if you knew that they were under investigation for collusion with Russia? Probably not.

Comey never mentioned a word about it, and he knew what the intelligence coming in from the UK was all about since 2015--and never peeped a word.
