  1. “Whatever respect I’d ever harbored for Comey has evaporated over the past year and a half.”

    First I ever heard of Comey was when he was on a 60 Minutes show. They introduced him glowingly; smart, straight arrow, dedicated.

    Coming from 60 Minutes? I knew he was a bum

  3. Comey is certainly the one guilty of obstruction of justice, as has been evident for some time – and now, with the evidence of his plan to let Hillary off the hook prior to almost any investigation – it is more clear than ever.

    1. This is not about letting “Hillary off the hook.” This about Mr. Comey pulling a Hillary where he, the FBI director, played fast and loose with confidential information, leaking to a NYT reporter supposed damaging information on President Trump.

      Though by Director Comey’s made-up rules, if these rules let “Hillary of the hook”, these same rules let himself off the hook. Could he do that?

      That, I say, was the true firing-offense he committed and also a matter placing him in legal jeopardy. In light of the treatment of candidate Clinton and her server, as well as his efforts to undermine President Trump, as they say, couldn’t happen to a more earnest guy, but it is what he did, not what Ms. Clinton did or even what President Trump did that is the issue.

      If you are going to make your reputation as a super-earnest G-man Boy Scout, you really have to stick with the law. In your own conduct, especially.

  4. For me, the decisive factor was Comey’s disregard for privacy rights and advocating the undermining of encryption. I can’t respect someone who thinks the convenience of law enforcement is more important than the security of US citizens or the viability of US industries that rely on encryption.
