James Comey says Brett Kavanaugh's 'obvious lies' about yearbook 'are a flashing signal to dig deeper'
by Steven Nelson
 | September 30, 2018 04:49 PM



Former FBI Director James Comey said Sunday that Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh's "obvious lies" about his high school yearbook hint at "bigger lies" that may be uncovered.

Comey wrote that FBI agents are up to the task of unearthing the truth of sexual assault allegations made by Christine Blasey Ford and others, and that he believes Kavanaugh's Thursday testimony could suggest trouble.

"Yes, the alleged incident occurred 36 years ago," Comey wrote in a New York Times op-ed, referring to Ford's accusation. "But FBI agents know time has very little to do with memory."

"They know every married person remembers the weather on their wedding day, no matter how long ago. Significance drives memory. They also know that little lies point to bigger lies," he wrote. "They know that obvious lies by the nominee about the meaning of words in a yearbook are a flashing signal to dig deeper."

On Thursday, Kavanaugh told members of the Senate Judiciary Committee that apparent sexual references in his self-written yearbook biography actually had innocent and lesser-known definitions.

Comey has a lot of experience when it comes to lying.
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-

I rather doubt that.

Straight from the FBI: https://leb.fbi.gov/articles/featured-articles/memory-puzzle-what-every-investigator-should-know-

For instance,

Victims and witnesses often report high levels of confidence in their memories despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary. One area where people report particularly high levels of confidence is termed “flashbulb” memories. Most people can produce vivid recollections of emotional events in their lives; however, studies have found no relationship between a person’s level of confidence and the accuracy of their memories. In one study 44 students were surveyed the day after the space shuttle Challenger disaster and again 3 years later to test the accuracy of these flashbulb memories.14 Less than 7 percent of second reports matched all the details of the original report. Fifty percent of second reports were incorrect in two-thirds of assertions, while 25 percent were wrong in every major detail.

I've come to think of him as a space cadet. We could both be right.

Speaking of lying, didn't Comey claim he never leaked and then later under oath admitted he leaked?

Comey is just another lying, snake-in-the-grass, anti-Trump, deep state operative.   The very definition of swamp scum.

Because.... to leftists.... "the truth" is whatever they say it is at any given moment in time.... depending upon how that "truth" furthers their agenda.  It's fluid.... just like the rest of their BS.
