FBI Director Says Decision to Forgo Charges Against Hillary Clinton 'Wasn't That Hard' to Make

http://abcnews.go.com/US/fbi-director-decision-forgo-charges-hillary-clinton-wasnt/story?id=40895203

n a message to his workforce today, FBI Director James Comey further defended his decision not to recommend pressing charges against Hillary Clinton over her use of a private email server while serving as secretary of state.

“I hope you see clearly what I see, that this investigation was done honestly, independently and competently,” Comey said in a video message to FBI personnel, according to one government employee who recounted the message to ABC News. “For investigators and their supervisors, all the way up to me, the decision was not only the right one, it actually wasn’t that hard a decision, given the facts and the law.”

In fact, he said, “What I don’t have patience for is people suggesting that the FBI did it in some way that was anything other than apolitical and independent, because that’s just not true, and anybody who knows the FBI should know better.”

Trump needs to keep hammering on July 5. The average person can understand unequal protection of the law.

This is a winning issue for Trump. Everyone who has had a speeding ticket, or even had his heartbeat elevate when he see a cop car in the rear view mirror can relate.

Well sure, when the choice is, "refuse to file charges against a criminal," or, "disappear into the foundations of a newly constructed Chicago highrise," he's right.  That's not a hard decision.

If all I want is a warm feeling, I should just wet my pants.

Nope. It's easy when you're getting messages in the middle of the night and callerID reports they're comin' from Vince Foster's phone number!   ;)

Let's see:  my job, or an indictment against Clinton that will ruin my future?  That's not too hard.

I won't be here after the election and vote.

If Hillary wins - I will be busy, BLOAT! (It won't be long before she won't let you buy.)

If Trump wins, I won't be here to GLOAT. (I don't want to hang around while everyone looks at every speck in his eye.)
