Good luck putting that manure back in that horse, GOP sympathizers.

I love you Harry Reid!

Comey knows there is nothing there and has known so for months. JoePhilly Oct 2016 #1
Rep. Elijah Cummings sums it up best: Coyotl Oct 2016 #4

And cover up of "explosive" Trump/Putin scandal to boot ffr Oct 2016 #2
I believe that Comey might be either bribed or blackmailed. MADem Oct 2016 #3
No, he's just a Republican. That more than covers it. Coyotl Oct 2016 #6
This is not "CT." This is based on the Reid letter. MADem Oct 2016 #8
If this is discovered that Putin is involved with INdemo Nov 2016 #39
He really has that "hostage" look about him PatSeg Oct 2016 #7
He did look that way. MADem Oct 2016 #9
There is something really fishy going on PatSeg Oct 2016 #19
Maybe Putin hacked HIS email, first.... MADem Oct 2016 #20
Oh, oh PatSeg Oct 2016 #21
Hmmmmm! MADem Oct 2016 #30
This is really starting to sound PatSeg Nov 2016 #42

I don't agree with Mr Reid. malthaussen Oct 2016 #12
Reid is calling Comey out. The subtext of his comments might as well read thusly: MADem Oct 2016 #22

So Reid knows what Comey is holding back? Why doesn't he just tell us, then? hughee99 Oct 2016 #25
He did in the accusation, but until unless the FBI confirms it ThoughtCriminal Oct 2016 #27
He didn't really say what the accusation was, just that it's a "bombshell". hughee99 Oct 2016 #28
Depends on what the FBI shared - probably no more than what Reid said ThoughtCriminal Oct 2016 #31
Does the FBI even have proof of anything, or is it still an ongoing investigation? hughee99 Oct 2016 #33
David Corn just confirmed it. MADem Oct 2016 #32
I think Reid may have lost whatever political sense he has left FBaggins Oct 2016 #29
No, you're behind the news cycle. The horse has long left the barn. MADem Oct 2016 #34
According to Reid, he's been asking for the release of this information since long before hughee99 Oct 2016 #35
YEP. Not surprising, since this information has been known by the FBI and others MADem Oct 2016 #36
Based on your link above from David Corn, the FBI has launched a "preliminary inquiry". hughee99 Oct 2016 #37
I've never seen a preliminary inquiry that didn't blossom into something more. MADem Nov 2016 #38
So you think Comey should have handled both situations the same way, to keep his mouth shut until hughee99 Nov 2016 #49
He should have told Congress to pound sand about testifying re: an "open" MADem Nov 2016 #50
So you don't think he should have said anything to congress like the recent letter he sent. hughee99 Nov 2016 #51
What's with the repeated "So you..." stuff? I think I've been quite clear. MADem Nov 2016 #52
I'm trying to make sure I understand what you're saying. I'm trying not to mischaracterize your hughee99 Nov 2016 #53
Reid asked them to INVESTIGATE AND RELEASE a COMPLETED investigation. MADem Nov 2016 #54
"We've no idea if they've even gotten off the dime on that". hughee99 Nov 2016 #55
The point that wooshed by you is that Reid asked for a report on a completed investigation MADem Nov 2016 #56
"I am sure he knows, clearly, just where Comey is at in terms of his lack of progress" hughee99 Nov 2016 #57
Even the NYT is saying "WTF?" And the FBI is "demoralized" for a reason--because this guy fucked up MADem Nov 2016 #58
I'm not arguing that Comey was right to send that message to congress, although I will concede hughee99 Nov 2016 #61
We'd have to know what the "evidence" was to know how it fits into the investigation MADem Nov 2016 #62
If Comey concluded his investigation in July and made his statement, how could he claim in September hughee99 Nov 2016 #63
Sorry, I can't see how that's responsive to what I posted FBaggins Nov 2016 #40
Comey's initial action had a cascading effect. He has, in effect, spilled the jigsaw pieces MADem Nov 2016 #44
Again - we seem to be talking past each other FBaggins Nov 2016 #45
Reid didn't ask Comey to opine--read what Reid was actually asking for. MADem Nov 2016 #46
That's odd spin. What does "opine" have to do with it? FBaggins Nov 2016 #47
Are you being serious? "Opining" is what opened this bag of worms. How soon some forget! MADem Nov 2016 #48
It was? FBaggins Nov 2016 #59
It wasn't Reid's job to condemn. It was COMEY's job to stay above partisan politics. MADem Nov 2016 #60
