The investigation must be completed whether you like it or not. As per his decision to go public, if it is found that he was doing it to "save his own A$$" than I am sure a resignation will shortly follow, if Hillary wins (which she most likely will) I think this will almost be inevitable. Public information or not, Hillary is under criminal investigation for breaking the rules on national security, James Comey did not put her there, Donald Trump or Reince Priebus did not put her there, Bernie Sanders did not put there, she did, and as a result, she must take responsibility for the fallout that happens. PS: Please provide a link to the articles you put in quotes. For all I know they could be from The Guardian or Washington Post. Thank you. |

I don't remember which site it was. Let me put this as simply as possible so you'll understand his political motivation for going public - which he should not have done and he's catching a lot of heat for it, even from his boss who advised him not to.
1. Clinton wins and they find nothing - Comey's politically safe. 2. Clinton wins and they find something - The Republicans go ape**** but Comey's covered his ass. 3. Trump wins and they find something - Comey's politically safe. 4. Trump wins and they find nothing - The Democrats go ape****. James Comey is a republican. As to links here's a few more: http://legalinsurrection.com/2016/10...

If James Comey decision to go public is unorthodox, it is because he's most likely cracking under the weight and pressure of a high profile criminal investigation that he is forced to re open in less than two weeks away from the Presidential election. So again it's irrrelevant. What is relevant is that Hillary Clinton is currently under criminal investigation for breaking the rules on national security. If she is found innocent the case will be closed, unless new evidence is brought forth, but she put herself there, and must take responsibility for it. |

Him going public and informing the republican congress about it, and of course the letter being leaked to the media and general public IS THE ISSUE. Him GOING PUBLIC is what the controversy is here. It's not about the potential of the FBI maybe finding evidence to convict Clinton. It's about the FBI inserting itself into a highly volatile political race 11 days before the election. If somehow Trump pulls of a last minute comeback to win the election, when Clinton's had been way ahead for weeks, the political **** is going to hit the fan if they don't find anything in the emails. The entire Justice Department will come under massive fire for breaking protocol by inserting the FBI into the race so late into the game. It's not about re-opening the case. Can't you understand that fact? Did you actually read this? https://www.justice.gov/sites/defaul...sitivities.pdf

I said political motivation for going public. Not political motivation for re-opening the case.
If Comey follows proper Justice Department protocols he potentially gets into serious hot water with the GOP and most likely gets fired. By not following protocol his only potential problem will be with the DNC. Can't make it any more black and white than that. That's the very definition of covering your ass.
