James Comey prays at the altar of James Comey
The Boston Herald ^ | 04-17-2018 | Herald Staff

Posted on 04/17/2018 3:34:55 AM PDT by calvincaspian

We should keep in mind that former director of the FBI James Comey is now a bookseller. It is hard to differentiate fabulist author James Comey from esteemed civil servant James Comey because both are in the business of preaching the word about the most pious, moral pillar in the modern age: James Comey.

“We can fight as Americans about guns or taxes or immigration, and we always have,” pontificated Comey to ABC’s George Stephanopoulos, “but what we have in common is a set of norms. Most importantly, the truth. ‘We hold these truths to be self-evident,’ right? Truth is the fourth word of that sentence. That’s what we are. And if we lose that, if we lose tethering of our leaders to that truth, what are we?”

On his storied pursuit of style guru Martha Stewart, Comey unpacked his tortured logic for the ABC audience: “I almost hesitated and almost didn’t bring the case against Martha Stewart, in hindsight, because she was rich and famous. And decided that if she were anybody else, any other ordinary person, she would be prosecuted.”

Apparently his heady algorithm of “what matters in the long run” and “what does my country stand for?” dictated that Martha Stewart be prosecuted.

Those norms were apparently suspended when applied in the case of Hillary Clinton.

Comey's tortured logic of “what matters in the long run” and “what does my country stand for?”
dictated that rich and famous Martha Stewart be prosecuted........yet he apparently surrendered his
"fly-by-night altruism" in the case of Hillary Clinton.

REALITY CHECK--Hillary would have the power to elevate him to a better-paying federal job........Martha did not.

Under the table money will do that to a person, particular a person of his “credibility”. The bastards don’t get rich for being honest.

Martha was convicted of Obstruction of Justice and lying to the FBI.

Hillary and her Cattle Futures weren't even investigated.

[ James Comey prays at the altar of James Comey ]

Wow, and this outta Massachusetts, too. I'd say he prays at another altar. I see these people every day at Yahoo when I go for my email. They truly are this delusional.

Things that ought to grab the attention of any Christian who understands Bible Prophecy:

The guy you have a man crush on took a dump on the USC daily.
He and the hag you protected from going to the clink is as corrupt as they come.
And you?
You’re a very tall poofer who should be in jail as well.

The FBI has allowed the corrupt Clinton Foundation to go to ground.It has had ample time now to acid-wash, smash computers, and otherwise destroy incrimination evidence.. probably with the help of hold-over loyalists still infesting the ‘justice’ establishment.

By the time, if ever, it goes to a grand jury there will be nothing of value left to subpoena

Makes sense now.

I didn’t know you could find a conservative publication there.

Come is a fraud and hypocrite much like the character of Reverend Arthur Dimmesdale in “The Scarlet Letter”.

They had some help from unexpected quarters...
Unexpected by us, perhaps, but maybe not by democrats and RINOs?

That kind of smarmy, self-serving condescension goes even beyond Hillary Clinton, and into Nancy Pelosi/Marlo Thomas territory.

Just heard Comedy say on TV that “everyone” needs to buy his important “book”. I’ll bet he hopes they do. He’s going to need the money to hire lawyers to keep him out of prison.
