How is it possible for a person to be seen in a positive light while simultaneously making insinuating inferences about a potential crime committed behind closed doors yet failing to do anything about that crime aside from writing a memorandum filed away in a desk drawer?
From all reports, this is precisely what recently fired FBI Director James Comey has done.
Much has been said and written about the head-spinning circumstance of having the very same people who only months ago demanded that Comey resign or be removed from office now feigning outrage over the news that he was fired.
Was firing Comey a good idea only if orchestrated by Democrats, outraged over the FBI’s treatment of Hillary Clinton? This question bears repeating, since it does much to contradict the furor and self-righteousness that accompanies the “this is even worse than Watergate!” cries from liberals and their fellow travelers in the mainstream media.
Nobody can predict with 100 percent certitude where the investigation of possible connections between the Trump for President Committee and the Russians will lead. We do know that even the most ordinary and common of actions have been portrayed in the most negative light. For example, a Russian diplomat briefly encountering now Attorney General Jeff Sessions in a public setting, along with other foreign diplomats, at the 2016 Republican National Convention is portrayed as a failure by Sessions to be honest about his relationships with the Russians in his testimony before Congress during his confirmation hearings.
Thus far, virtually any tangential evidence implying the Trump campaign was in cahoots with the Russians warrants a front-page story. Does it not seem strange that if in fact there was a smoking gun the information would have already been leaked?
