snip the first two paragraphs...

First, there was Comey’s revelation that some of the emails investigated were marked classified at the time they were sent or received, which is the basis for the claim that Hillary Clinton has been lying all along when she said she “did not send classified material and I did not receive any material that was marked or designated classified”:

Some, Comey included, will argue that this distinction makes no difference, but it certainly does, especially when judging whether or not Hillary Clinton lied. In this case, it’s important to listen carefully to what Comey said, which is that a “very small number” (whatever that means) “bore markings indicating the presence of classified information.”

There are several problems with this, most fundamental among them being that Comey’s press conference should have lasted 30 seconds, and not included what amounted to 15 minutes of unanswered, unexamined testimony against Hillary Clinton. No one can cross-examine Comey and ask him what “a very small number” means, nor can we know which “markings” he’s referring to. For example, one of the emails that Hillary-haters declared a smoking gun was one which bore the word “confidential” in the subject line, but which referred to attorney-client privilege, not government classification. Was there a “very small number” of these?

1. "Comey is never influenced by politics."

My big fat butt!

2. "No one can cross-examine Comey..." Tell that to the GOP calling for him to testify.

If the idiot had been professional about it and just issued the FBI's conclusion that no criminal charges were being recommended by the FBI investigstors, Paul Ryan would not be calling for Comey to testify before Congress about what these "very small number" of emails were referring to. Comey let his partisanship get the better of him. He really stepped into a pile of shit. Idiot.

3. Want to add this here from Daily Kos: Some Bullet Points about the Email

I’m a Federal government employee, a lawyer, and a former intel analyst for the military. (It should be noted that I blog here in my personal capacity as a private citizen and speak only for me.)

I have a few points to make about this whole shit show of a fake scandal:

5. Very interesting Article from someone that knows what they're talking about!

None of this would have even made it into a court of law, or even a halfway-decent newspaper, but because Comey got to stand there and testify unilaterally against Hillary Clinton for 15 minutes, no one gets to make Comey look like a fool for contradicting himself, and for engaging in the sort of rank speculation that courts of law are designed to weed out, and which competent editors relegate to spaces like Alex Jones‘ Infowars
