Squelching it looks worse than letting him talk.

The key is letting him talk and then convincing the Republicans to let him get away with it, which is much more likely, because there is nothing more craven and cowardly than a Congressional Republican.

I'm assuming you also like the common cold more than AIDS because that's essentially what you just declared.

That would be a correct assumption.

No way, the Obama Administration pressured Comey (via a pathological liar and one of the most corrupt AG's in U.S. History) to water down and soft landing the Clinton email investigation errr matter?  No way, this is astounding news.

I mean, sure, the Democrats aren't perfect (for the record, I'm not a registered Democrat), but, hey, let's assume the current stewards of Democracy aren't just going along with this nonsense for tax cuts.

Congressional Republicans, going back to making a gigantic deal over Bill Clinton getting some strange, have shown tremendous ability to prioritize things of great import and have shown tremendous courage.

The most damaging testimony in the whole thing was the Obama-Loretta Lynch attempt to stop the investigation of Clinton during the election. Obvious election tampering that backfired.

It's too bad that Trump hurt Comey's feelings with regard to the FBI, not a good look for the president.

So Comey is very concerned about how Russia is influencing the way people vote correct?  And yet he point blank said that both the New York Times and Wash Post had leading headlines that had zero truth to them?  That is more troubling to me than Russia.  :dunno:

And Jesus Christ why is McCain still holding a position?  What a horrible waste of 7min..

What is interesting is he said they (NYT, WaPo) were wrong, which is def not good for them, but also seemed to lead on that it was more what they were wrong about, into that nothing happened, just not they way they put it, so who knows.

Trying to be as objective as possible, given his testimony, it seems like a lot of people get their cookie, and a lot of people don't. If he is to be believed:

-He doesn't fully seem to believe that Trump himself is directly involved in COLUSION, and that might be so, though he didnt fully answer said question. I'll give that point for the Trump supporters

-He undeniably said that Russia has been meddling in the election, that is not up for debate, that is worrisome. Point for anti trump

-He does seem to be concerned about the whole Lynch thing, not good for her/Obama

The total sum of what it seems to be is that there is a lot of Russia meddling, and my guess is that there are a lot of people with and around Trump that got support for and help from the Russians, but it seems like Trump himself is either innocent or not informed of said dealings, so that'll be fun to parse through. It also seems that, from his testimony, the Russians were doing all of this to cause some chaos, and to undermine us, which IMO is kinda of the crux, they clearly think Trump is in their best interest to advance their agenda, so IDK what to make of that. It's feels like a won the battle but kinda lost the war for Trump. He didn't collude (as of now), but basically his election is best for Russia and worse for us, and they tried their damnedest to get him elected. Unless you are ok with the lengths they took to do so.

Regardless, it'll be fun to see how this all ends up, I guess a lot of people will get what they want while simultaneously getting smashed for what they didnt want happen to happen. No one will look good and in the end we all lose, again.

I think Comey is a good guy, honorable, like just about every other intelligence professional I can recall.  It sucks when they tangle with politicians (rarely honorable), because they often lose.

No, no I don't.  I mean, in the midst of the meltdown to end all meltdowns, we gotta a lot of stuff going on. 

Of course as has been stated, the biggest thing we found out today, is that the Obama administration tampered with an FBI investigation.

I agree, seems like a very good guy, but not sure he was cut out to be FBI director. Not assertive enough IMO.
