Turns out Comey gave Hillary a pass on emails because he thought she would win
American Thinker ^ | 04/13/2018 | Monica Showalter

James Comey's memoir, pompously titled A Higher Loyalty: Truth, Lies, and Leadership, set for release on April 17, is out from the reviewer class, and all but one seems to have missed the bombshell in it: that Comey neglected to prosecute Hillary Clinton for her refusal to properly handle the nation's top secrets through her illegal private bathtub server, and exposed those secrets to  our nation's enemies, because he thought she would win the 2016 election.  Some Boy Scout, as he and his allies portray him.

Quite a few of the reviewers focus on Comey's descriptive powers, something that could make anyone look negative if the view is biased enough, which Comey's is.  He natters on about Trump's hand size, the bags under his eyes, his tie being too long, and other stylistics that mark Comey as a vain little man obsessed with looks, little different from David Brooks and his fascination with the crease of President Obama's pant legs.  Sounds about par for a preening fop, which I guess Comey is.  I didn't know there were guys who did this.

There also is focus on he-said, she-said exchanges, which, given Comey's penchant for lying, raises questions as to the accuracy of the supposed recollections.  Supposedly, Gen. John Kelly was all broken up about Comey's firing.  Well, maybe – he's a swamp thing, after all, and he's said to be a nice person, very empathetic, but who knows?

Then there are the pointless anecdotes, which the Daily Wire rightly classifies as "nothingburgers."  Are we supposed to be surprised that President Trump didn't like the "pee tape" about himself, in a dossier put together by his enemies and their Kremlin "sources"?  Or to think it unnatural that President Trump wouldn't want his wife to believe it?  It all seems natural and predictable.

They all thought she would win.

They never dreamed they would get caught.

He is admitting that his FBI was politically weaponized. Keep talking JC, the rope is getting tighter.

Wedgie target focusing on aesthetics. This book will not be on the same shelf with the enduring history works.

Democrats are Democrats first.

Being an American is way down on their list.

That SOB was going to be paid off with a cushy job in a Clinton administration. No wonder he was upset with Pres. Trump. The President’s biggest mistake was in not demanding the resignations of ALL Obama appointees on Inauguration Day. We would not be in this mess had he done that simple thing.And taxpayers wouldn’t be spending tens of millions as his enemies in the intel agencies try to get rid of him.

The head of the FBI was scared of Hillary. Real badass. Maybe he thought she’d give him a wedgie?

Do people have have short memories or what? James Comey sat on the board of directors of the Clinton Foundation and made around 7 million during that time from it. Also isn’t Comey’s brother the top dog overseeing the finances of the Clinton Foundation?

Look up the name Niebuhr on wiki. He became popular when Obama raised the name. You’ll see the other names who said he was influential...incl Comey.

George Orwell was right about swamp pigs, I guess some animals are just more equal than others, ( when pertaining to the law.)

Comey is corrupt as they come.
He should be in jail.
