[QUOTE=ApatheticNoMore;256489]or dropping the charges is bullcrap. As we have no way of knowing who is pulling whose strings (and on what tarmac), did the Obama administration and the Attorney General have a talk with Comey? We know those people are partisans. Was Comey trying to push the election toward Trump (look we know most of the powers that be want Hillary including the vast majority of the intelligence apparatus and including many Republicans, but Comey might well be wanting a Republican in office, we know he has R sympathies and has mostly worked for Rs). It's all so much parsing motive and hidden things we do not see, which seem unknowable to me.

Trump should also be sited. It has been reported to the FBI that he has ties with Russia. No wonder he praises Putin!
If there was anything new in those emails I doubt J Edgar Comey would have been willing to have his arm twisted to the point of throwing away his career the way he did this morning. He gave in to republican arm twisting and acted as a partisan hack a week ago and today he paid the price. I fully expect that sometime in January/early February he'll announce that he wants to "spend more time with his family"
I disagree. He had promised to keep Congress informed of any changes in the investigation, and he did. The response to his notification was political, although there appears to be no damage done other than both sides of the political divide making him the scapegoat.
If I were him, I'd be well and truly pissed that the Justice Department forced him into this mess through the discovery of the Attorney General's tête-à-tête with Bill on a secluded runway.

I don't think Comey was politcally motivated at all. I also don't think that they could get through that many emails before the election, in such a short time-- 1 per second, they estimated, so I still don't know why that went down as it did. But it seems to me Comey obligated by law to do what he did by reopening. Do not have a clue why he released the statement he did on Sunday.
