Here’s why I’m DELIGHTED about the FBI’s verdict on Hillary…

Of course, the news cycle is completely dominated by FBI Director James Comey’s announcement yesterday recommending no criminal charges against Hillary Clinton. And my response is GREAT! I can’t thank Director Comey enough for coming to this decision.

My concern has always been that Barack Obama would release the hounds on Mrs. Clinton and then push for his vice president, Joe Biden, to be the Democrat nominee. And then, to placate the far lefty socialists, who own the Democrat party, Obama would position Sen. Elizabeth Warren as Biden’s VP. That would be a really tough ticket to beat, since Joe Biden’s favorables, regardless of gaffes and such, are extremely high.

However, James Comey just delivered a gift wrapped with a bow. Why do I say that?

Simple, here’s what FBI Director Comey said regarding Hillary Clinton and this email server episode:

He concluded Hillary was “extremely careless” in handling our nation’s secrets. He admitted no reasonable person could have believed putting these emails on a private server was at all appropriate or acceptable. He admitted 110 emails on the server were classified at the time they were sent — showing Hillary not only lied, but knowingly endangered national security as secretary of state. He admitted Hillary deleted work-related emails before turning them over to the State Department, despite her claims otherwise. And, most shocking, Mr. Comey even admitted it’s likely foreign governments hacked her emails — and our adversaries could know critical secrets about the U.S. government because of Hillary’s actions.

Here’s a simple Southern summation. Hillary Clinton was extremely careless with our not just classified, but highly classified, information — why not just term this gross negligence? I can tell you, if I were a member of our Armed Services who’s been punished for misuse or mishandling of classified information, I would be filing an appeal. See, in the military, at a minimum, you’ll lose your security clearance; maximum, you’ll face courts-martial punishment.

Comey has said Hillary Clinton is not reasonable — is that who you want as president and commander in chief? And Mrs. Clinton’s actions were not appropriate or acceptable. That follows with Mrs. Clinton’s blatant lie about not having any classified material on her private server — her unclassified, private, personal server. Hillary Clinton stated there was no classified correspondence she emailed — wrong, a lie. Lastly, Comey confirmed Hillary Clinton inappropriately deleted the property of the American people — State Department, work-related emails. We know from the deposition of her closest aide, the daughter of Muslim Brotherhood associates Huma Abedin, that she admitted to burning emails.

I am very angry over his decision simply because I believe in justice for all.

Charging a politician with carelessness is sort of a compliment. :-)

At the local BLM March today, the AFL-CIO was present and highlighted.

This is coordinated leftist theatre to take the heat off of hiLIARy.

Shh, I was mocking the OP, not you, although you gave me a great opening to do so.

Politically speaking it may well pay off, as this becomes a campaign issue.

We’ll know on the morning of November 9th if it was worth it.

By all means, it is hoped that Alan West has at least some part in a TRUMP administration. He has been solid from the first step into the limelight.

My tablet does that too, among other things. Not a great fan of the virtual keyboard.

He was a Florida conservative representative until Florida jerry rigged their districts and he lost the seat. You can still see him on Fox News/Greta VS show often.
