So.. Rush was right..
Just as he predicted, James Comey yanks the proverbial Peanuts football of justice away from Charlie Brown (that's us..) at the last second.
So are,we flat on our backs cursing Lucy for tricking us again? No.
All James Comey has done is reinforce the impression that people have had since July that something hinky is going on at the FBI and DOJ.
Nothing has changed. The FBI declared as fact, Hillary Clinton broke the law and lied repeatedly under oath about it. But in her twisted reality, the fact that they declined to recommend indictment is the same as clearing her of all charges.
She has no guilt, no shame, so unless she actually goes to jail for it, it's much ado about nothing as far as she is concerned. Sadly, the Washington Post has the same issue, apparently confused with the difference between "not being recommended for prosecution" and being "exonerated". She was not exonerated - she just wasn't prosecuted. That's a huge difference.
My threshold for a minimum level of character for President of the United States is higher than "not recommended for prosecution". Especially when they are still under investigation for corruption and influence peddling..
But we'll see today, whether there are still enough people in America willing to hold our leaders to at least the same level of honesty as we are subject to - or if they are willing to allow some people to live under a different set of rules..
I understand that Trump is a flawed man - but he must be pretty honest, or Hillary's attack dogs would have come up with something better than he may have (shudder..) taken advantage of all the tax laws to lower his tax bill. C'mon, man.. Dat's the best you got??
