Look how the big wolf smiles as he is being given the keys to the henhouse.

1. In his great presidency, his attempts to be bipartisan were his greatest mistakes.

He was naïve in the face of the evil of his opponents.

2. Yup, he was trying to be all kumbaya and hoping we could all just get along

3. Our beloved president should have read Matthew 7: 15 before appointing him.

4. He probably thought he'd do a good job.

Don't know that I paid a lot of attention, but Comey wasn't a big news item until October 2016. Until then ... not a prob, or at least no more than the average high-level appointment.

5. In hindsight, probably the biggest mistake of his administration.

6. HE WAS TALLER than Obama and picked on him?

Kidding... he does seem taller...

7. He stood up to Bush and Gonzalez.

When Ashcroft was in the hospital. It gave Comey an air of bipartisanship that Obama respected.

Unfortunately, not trusting Bush, doesn't equal not liking Donald.
