pre-exoneration editorializing was such BS
EDIT: this is from Chuck Todd/MTP this afternoon on MSNBC
going into actual detail of the markings of the actual documents, showing how difficult it was to see which individual docs were marked
the awful Alan Dershowitz made the same comments last night, leading to a more detailed explanation that's happening right now.
he's talking about Comey "opining" about the charges, calling it completely inappropriate. Chucky, of course, was fighting him tooth and nail, holding up the pugs' side, going so far as to try to equate Petraeus' egregious actions with Hillary's. what a surprise.
too bad Lowell can't be on the air as often as Lewandowski, or all the infuriating Trump surrogates, who repeat the same word-for-word talking point garbage all day and all night, with nary a gainsaying by any of the 'journalists' at the table
Lowell, btw, is a Hillary supporter and has defended others in cases involving classified material
this was typed as Lowell was speaking, so pls excuse the grammar, etc
point is this is only the third voice since yesterday bringing sanity to this imbroglio, and I've been torturing myself for many, many hours, taking it all in.
I hope somebody is keeping track of the overwhelming disparity between those utterly lambasting Hillary for her combination of incompetence and cynically treasonous behavior, even the likes of ODonnell and others on MSNBC. simply mind boggling

(111,110 posts)One important distinction he made between Hillary and Petraeus was that Hillary's emails were within the system, not to some external source, as was Petraeus with his mistress. And the classified information was much different also.

(18,672 posts)should investigate the entire Congress and their email accounts as closely as they've investigated Hillary's. I'd also love to see those people who are lambasting this investigation (as you've stated) on the social medial sites have their work emails investigated and sifted through as thoroughly as Hillary's have been. I have no doubt that almost all of them would be found in violation of their company's policies and more than a few would be found in violation of their corporate NDA's. I think Jesus said it best, "Let him who is without sin cast the first stone." The Republicans are like the paps sifting through celebrity garbage trying to find "clues". I guess they like being down in the sewers, waiting for something to drop so they can sift through it.

Who is it? Foreign or local?

Lowell is absolutely correct.
I now believe Comey needs to be removed from the remainder of his b.s. 10 yr position for this stupid stunt.
Big applause to Abbe Lowell

(90,364 posts)... lawyer kept it pretty simple for Todd; there were no clear security markings on the email at the time so she's in the clear.
Todd made sure to let everyone watching he didn't know wtf he was talking about

Suprised he didn't just sit there stupidly chewing on his tie while Lowell had to explain it in the simplest terms for the idiot child minded Chuck.

(45,020 posts)When Comey came out and said, first thing, that
he had not coordinated with any other party...
well, that's the first thing you should suspect.
These rightwing fckrs will stoop to anything,
especially now that the stench of failure is all
over them. I see panic. Vindictive, yes. But panic.
Everywhere you look, Republicans are flailing in
their feces over this election season. Stinky.
