And while he's at it, he should comment on any FBI investigation of Trump involvement with Russian hackers. That would level the scales Comey upended with his first letter.
I wonder if he, or if top Republicans and Democrats in Congress will let the American people know Farmgirl1961 Oct 2016 #1
I'm really wondering who will be talking first. NWCorona Oct 2016 #8
SO now Comey is pretending to do his job DK504 Oct 2016 #24
It's predictable... getagrip_already Oct 2016 #26
Something tells me.... Helen Borg Oct 2016 #2
Wonder how that would work? His position is for 10 years. Equinox Moon Oct 2016 #4
The President can fire the FBI director at any time. n/t PoliticAverse Oct 2016 #5
Wonder if Obama will have him step down? Equinox Moon Oct 2016 #9
That would be a nice parting gift to a President Clinton. n/t PoliticAverse Oct 2016 #10
It is also at the discretion of the President still_one Oct 2016 #23
I believe the FBI Director, and all other department heads, serve at the pleasure of the President. calimary Oct 2016 #29
NO NO NO! ChairmanAgnostic Oct 2016 #31
but... but... but... Comey chose not to follow agency protocol, Equinox Moon Oct 2016 #32
All true, and disheartening. ChairmanAgnostic Oct 2016 #37
Comey supports the GOP ...the constitution...no. Demsrule86 Oct 2016 #34
Hmmm... that's always been my understanding, although I certainly could be wrong. calimary Oct 2016 #35
I'm wondering if President Obama will shit-can him as a lame-duck action? PearliePoo2 Oct 2016 #6
Yes. Yes he can. elehhhhna Oct 2016 #27
You know what? You can't put the Genie back in the bottle. Equinox Moon Oct 2016 #3
he took a shit in public but is apologizing for it in private. nt TeamPooka Oct 2016 #19
What apology? calimary Oct 2016 #30
You know what pisses me off about this now - we the people asiliveandbreathe Oct 2016 #7
Can't help my sarcasim - but he will say it is top-secret because it is within the FBI Equinox Moon Oct 2016 #12
LOL - thanks for that...top secret my arse.... asiliveandbreathe Oct 2016 #13
thanks for lightening up my mood with your comment Equinox Moon Oct 2016 #15
Not good enough. He needs to issue another letter explaining WTF he meant by the first letter. SunSeeker Oct 2016 #11
I stand by my prediction that we will have some sort of official update by Monday afternoon NWCorona Oct 2016 #14
Yep - and it should be televised as I mentioned earlier - and asiliveandbreathe Oct 2016 #16
He needs to make a public statement. Otherwise we just get repub said/dem said reporting. Jim__ Oct 2016 #17
Why would you expect him to control the damage? LisaL Oct 2016 #18
He has an obligation to remove the innuendo from his letter. Jim__ Oct 2016 #20
It's up to high ranking Dems and Pukes to keep pointing this stuff out, keep asking him public anamandujano Oct 2016 #21
So the first post I see on FB after the news broke Friday mountain grammy Oct 2016 #22
People like that were going to vote for Trump spooky3 Oct 2016 #25
Probably not True_Blue Oct 2016 #38
Me too. Do you think it's fired up Dems or Independents? spooky3 Oct 2016 #39
I think it has fired up the Dems True_Blue Oct 2016 #40
He's going through the motions. That's about all we can expect these days. TonyPDX Oct 2016 #28
Comey can go fuck himself. He has been a terrible director even before this. Demsrule86 Oct 2016 #33
So he's continuing to violate the Hatch Act. The man just doesn't know when to stop. Disgusting. Native Oct 2016 #36
Reached Out??? rpannier Oct 2016 #41
