Who thought there was going to be an indictment? I think everyone (who is sane) figured it would go this way. 

[red321]

I would say most of the folks on tv talking about how they can't believe there wasn't an indictment. I also think there are a number of people who aren't surprised there wasn't an indictment, not because there was nothing to indict, but because of something nefarious.

yeah, i think he owes an explanation for not prosecuting her when there are others who have done the same or possibly less (depending on how much you believe facebook memes) and have been prosecuted.

There's a theory that Obama ordered him not to recommend charges, so he went ahead and laid out the case anyway in the announcement yesterday.

If it's on Facebook it has to be true. They have lie-filtering technology.

People need to use "nefarious" more often.

I think most people who are surprised at the lack of an indictment is because of the comments made by Comey regarding Hillary's actions, such as sending the emails on multiple personal devices (she lied saying it was only 1, btw), including doing so in hostile foreign territories. You really don't think there was a good chance those were hacked ? 

Her lying to the American public about every aspect of this is reprehensible. Any boss who had an employee do something along these lines would fire them immediately. Hillary will be rewarded by being elected POTUS.

What does she have to do to get shitcanned from public office, bang an intern in the oval office?

Only because Republicans nominated such a terrible candidate. And if it wasn't Trump, it would have been Cruz. Republican voters only have themselves to blame for what will likely be a Hillary presidency.

Democrats nominated her. They're culpable as well

Hollly shit....there's a theory...why wasn't this reported earlier...impeachment proceedings must commence at once!

 

And while we are at it...let's not forget that Scioscia is probably trying to lose games on purpose so he can take the Dodger's managerial gig next year

I thought waterboarding was illegal these days. 

 

Yeah,  let that imagery sink into your head. 

[Adam]

Pretty clearly the director was pissed and blasted her in his conference. 

 

[Amazing Larry]

I'm thinking the same thing. I have a feeling he won't be hesitant to badmouth her at the hearing as well.

No but they had their two worst candidates battling it out to face her. Hillary had the nomination locked up when she lost in 08. I'm less than thrilled with her but better Hillary than Bernie.

[Lou]

like he was going to announce that they were recommending charges be filed right before Hillary and Obama went on stage together in North Carolina. nothing like ingratiating yourself to your boss and future boss

It's a shame they didn't listen to the rest of his comments...the ones outlining why they did not file charges or how no reasonable prosecutor would bring charges. I realize it was a long statement...I can find a link for you if you want or google Comey comments on Clinton.

Again, this is not to absolve her of bad decision making in this instance.

What she did is definitely illegal. Gross negligence is illegal.

Not sure what she told the FBI in her interviews but if it's the same lies she told the public then that's illegal.

It's a shame you didn't read the article I posted earlier in this thread which describes someone else being prosecuted for doing the exact same thing Hilary did.

I heard it live, but thanks for the condescending remark.

I'm not surprised one bit that she won't be indicted. I never thought she would. However, I don't believe for one second there isn't a prosecutor whowould bring charges against Hillary.
