So the Republicans of SW hate James Comey now.

I wonder why that is. 馃槣
TexChikF
He was a silent partner to Loretta Lynch's obstructionist efforts ... not so much as a peep . But leaked BS to the media after he was fired ... a real class act
TheProphetM
He's an admitted criminal who should be arrested and sent to prison.

@Northwest: We will see what happens.
NorthwestM
@lastbabyboomer: Nothing related to your claims will happen, seeing that you're making baseless claims.

I'm not sure why it's so difficult to understand, that it's not about what investigation the President can or cannot terminate, it's about independence of the FBI. This is what Comey is trying to expose. An attempt by the President to turn the office of Directory of the FBI, into his submissive and have us slide closer to a dictatorship.
TheProphetM
@Northwest: He did no such thing. The hearings proved that. Comey admitted that Trump didn't ask or tell him to end the investigation.

Because he is a liar and a leaker. When they start chopping up former obama officials, you will whine.

@MasterLee: No I really wouldn't care. Trump said if he shot someone on stage, his supporters will still back him and its true.

Democrats hated him when he reopened the investigation on Hillary.

@Contagious: they got fickle

@MasterLee: Pot calls the kettle...

@Burnley123: no, Comey is a criminal. Pick up the pen.

Personally I don't mind that he was fired, his conduct before the election was rather unprofessional. The part of it that stinks is how much cloak and dagger there is right now about Trump's administration. Tactfully speaking, if Trump knew he had nothing to fear, the smart thing would have been to wait for everything to blow over, and then replace Comey. But when it comes to Trump and doing the smart thing, you might as well be playing it off of a dice roll, about a 1 in 12 chance.

Private conversations, but at a senate hearing he could be lying through his teeth, something to keep the democrats happy over the dismal performance of Hillary during the election

The Republicans, The Democrats, Obama, Clinton, Comey and the rest of the Deep State Sewage along with the Global scumbag world government tyrants should be worried.

If you had a real media, this would be the main story every single day, but you don't ...

Why did the democrats hate him a short time ago?
GunSmoke956-60, M
@bijouxbroussard: Great, after the fact, after Hillary lost. Where was the media outrage over that meeting on the tarmac? 24 7 Trump and Russia.
@GunSmoke9: Well, like you said, she lost. Where is [b]your[/b] outrage over Trump, the winner, who's been lying to you and keeps getting caught ? He's the president and this is happening [b]right now[/b], yet you keep making excuses for him.
GunSmoke956-60, M
@bijouxbroussard: There is plenty of things Trump does that I don't like. I wasn't even defending Trump, but attacking Comey and the media.
NorthwestM
Hypocrisy. I don't agree with his decision to reopen the email investigation, when he knew there was nothing to it, but I don't know if he had a choice, given the meeting Bill Clinton's idiocy, and his meeting with the AG.

Bottom line is that Comey has no reason to lie, and no record of having ever lied. On the other hand, our President has a major track record of lies.
They're hypocrites, as usual. I gained some respect for Comey because he's been the only Republican willing to tell the truth. I'm not even mad at him about putting former AG Lynch on blast---and [b]she[/b], at least acknowledged that she [b]said[/b] what he testified, and why. The only consistent liar and denier has been Trump. And that Trump and his supporters would think that his lies are less important that Comey letting people know is outrageous.
TheProphetM
@bijouxbroussard: As President he has the authority to end any investigation, so no crime. No law says he has to let the press in. Loyalty should be given to the office of President no matter what Party the President is. Obama had the same right to expect loyaty from the people who worked for him.
@lastbabyboomer: And Obama didn't receive that loyalty, remember ? They signed the Cotton Letter and brought in a foreign leader to address Congress [b]behind his back[/b]. And they pursued every way possible to obstruct Obama. So yes, I want to know---why do they give Trump a pass (besides the obvious reason) ? Incidentally, Watergate proved that the president does [b]NOT[/b] have the power to halt an investigation where he might be found culpable. Nixon found that out the hard way.
TheProphetM
@bijouxbroussard: Nixon was covering up felonies which was wrong. No comparison to Trump. He does have the authority to stop investigations. Should he? Probably not. It's true Obama didn't get the loyalty he deserved. I deplore the state of our political infighting.

He is disliked by both sides.
