Correct. Trump was drafting a letter showing that he had an intent in mind and was working toward implementing it. Just as he ultimately did. And correct again, Comey had an intent in mind and had moved toward putting up a draft decision and announcement together. Which ultimately he did. Trump had no obligation whatsoever to wait for anyone else but a prosecutor or a judge have an absolute obligation to not reach any conclusions before key evidence and witnesses are heard. In addition Comey had an obligation to not lie about it to the House Committee. It's amazing too that you think- as in your post above- that this is about emails and hillary. It is not. This particular issue is about Comey and his credibility and perjury. Meuller is relying on this clown's testimony in numerous instances to bring trump down. But Comey is the one who needs to continue to be discredited for the lying sack of shiite that he is. The house committee and the justice department should totally expose him and continue to ruin what little reputation he has. Two can play the witch hunt game.
What caught my eye was "cato.org". Actually Cato was my favorite brand of scotch. Very smokey! Can't get it where I live.
Interesting! In the Zeifman quote closest to the time of the event in question , Zeifman says he didn't have the power to fire Hillary, then 9 years later he says he terminated her. Well, which is it Mr. Zeifman. He obviously didn't get along well with Hillary. Another place we are told that Hillary wasn't fired during the Nixon Committee Inquiry, she was terminated along with other temporary committee staffers when the inquiry was complete. Folks, this stuff isn't rocket science. It would be trivial for any real reporter to get the real facts here. Apparently the real stuff isn't juicy enough. I also found this line Hilarious, and at the same time a gross misuse of the English vocabulary -- the largest of any language, so it isn't like no alternative was available! To wit: Kessler also notes that Clinton failed the D.C. bar exam in that period. She never retook the exam (passing the Arkansas exam instead) and concealed her failure even from her closest friends until her autobiography in 2003. You know, when I failed the D.C. Bar exam I had a tee shirt printed up saying, "Hey, Guys!, I failed the D.C. Bar exam!" , and I wore it to my firms Christmas party. (I'm lying of course, but isn't that what we're supposed to do on the internet?) Say what you like about Hillary. I don't care for her myself, so you won't hurt my feelings. But wouldn't it be nice if this low quality crap could remain unquoted in a heaping pile of steaming horseshit somewhere in the internet clouds. Why bother to bring it down to Earth where we might step in it?
Which reminded me just now of one of my fondest memories of bobbing on a sailboat moored in Key West Harbor, sipping Cato's and listening across the water to a dockside combo playing Ain't Misbehavin. Da de da Da Dah, Da de da Dah... Now isn't that better than all of this Hillary crap. She defeated herself. She's gone. R.I.P. Hillary. I do hope Key West will still be there ten days from now!
Not surprisingly, Hillary never turns down an opportunity to be Hillary. Here is how she recounts it in her 2003 autobiography: Despite the satisfaction of my work, I was lonely and missed Bill more than I could stand. I had taken both the Arkansas and Washington, D.C., bar exams during the summer, but my heart was pulling me toward Arkansas. When I learned that I passed in Arkansas but failed in D.C., I thought that maybe my test scores were telling me something. I spent a lot of my salary on my telephone bills and was so happy when Bill came to see me over Thanksgiving. Poor Hillary. Her sensitivity and being too human have always been a problem for her I guess. You are not going to hear her say: "My boyfriend was off in Arkansas so I had nothing to do but study for my bar exams and I still could not pass the fucking thing." Nope. Her human side caught up with her once again. I wonder what Bubba was doing while she was off in DC. What do you suppose he was studying?
