So basically, Comey engaged in the same conduct for which HRC was exonerated

*The FBI looked into whether HRC broke any laws by using a private server. She didn't.

Comey, on the other hand, may have violated the Hatch Act.

*The FBI looked into whether HRC violated any guidelines or recommendations concerning the handling of emails. She didn't. Guidelines were later put in place as an advisory to State Dept officials' use of email.

Comey, on the other hand, blatantly ignored long-standing DoJ guidelines on not interferring with an election, guidelines that were firmly reiterated in March.

So when will House Rs be dragging Comey before them as part of an investigation that would be based on actual violations of the spirit and letter of the law on Comey's part?

WTF is supposed to be in these "damn emails" anyway? WTF are they looking for? They have completely lost sight of this.

As faulty as Abedin's judgment may be in some areas...I truly doubt she would have classified emails on Weiner's laptop??????
