30% true, 10% exaggerated claim, 60% false.

But If Untrue, I sure the headline above will get more exposure than the correction.

Yeah, the facts just don't pass the sniff test to me. I can't imagine this "anonymous" guy watching his wife close to dying in a hospital at 4 am calling someone he doesn't know to tell them the story about his "liberal" wife.

Obviously you've either been asleep, or watching leftist news networks for the last 10 years, because those charges are only the beginning.

It's not my job to educate you on current events, it's your job to pull yourself away from people who only one side of the story and expand your mind.

You guys are talking past each other bit.

He was charged with lying under oath, which likely will not see prison time.

Other actions he did, whether true or not, he hasn't been charged with.

The biggest issue for Comey is no one in DC likes him, not the left and not the right. The best thing he has going for him is that Trump indicted him, not Biden. He is a pretty tough spot.

Alex..... I'll take watching leftist networks for the last 10 years for $1000 please.

He/she/it, is a leftist troll who always comes charging in to defend the left, and push everyone's buttons in the process.

Don't take the bait.

I am pretty awake. But that is what the charges are. If you think there is some bigger conspiracy more power to you but the fact is that Trump's Justice Department didn't charge him with any of that. In fact the grand jury returned a "no" on one of the three charges they brought which is rare. His odds of conviction are pretty low.

I honestly don't think you are capable of educating me on these current events because you see them through such a twisted lens. I know a great deal about exactly what is going on in these cases. I am friends with lawyers who represent both members of the Trump family, and the Biden family (and here is a funny for you, they often use the same lawyers).

And to be honest, I actually understand what words like treason and sedition mean. I don't throw them around like cheap candy like you want to.

Says the man who calls the Wall Street Journal "marxist."

And thanks for referencing another great Canadian. At least you occassionally recognize quality.

But let me help you understand my politics if it will make it simple enough for you.

I am a Bill Davis/Maggie Thatcher conservative. Not a leftist. I would say I am a Reagan conservative but I have too much humility to put myself on that level.

What I am not is a MAGA person. There is very little that is remotely conservative about the MAGA movement.

Nice try
I see right through you.

This was the only way it would happen. Biden would have never. Not that he shouldn't have but that's a different story.

That will keep me up at night. Your magic insights will free us all. Your own personal TDS issues are pretty apparent.

 

[LivingTheDream]

His odds of conviction are pretty low.

I think they are above 50%, it is a hard thing to prove though and Comey is an attorney. But if Trump keeps railing against him, I am guessing the odds drop rather quickly.

This is directed to my friends on AH that are older than 50 and have been lulled by habit into using the USPS. It sucks. It's a political disaster. It's annoying. It's inefficient. I hate it. I always tell people I'd rather receive a bad check than a good USPS money order. Either way, neither are getting cashed.

ZeroHedge.com had a great article today on just one of a million examples of why USPS sucks.

To all of our UK residents, how does it feel that a quran burner was treated and spoken of more harshly than the muslim who attacked him with a knife, telling him that he was going to kill him? Oh wait. If you give the wrong answer and the wrong person sees it, you'll be thrown in jail.

Is burning the Koran a more serious crime than assault?

Moussa Kadri has been spared jail after attacking an anti-Islam activist with a knife.

See, this is dangerous. If he's guilty of lying under oath, so be it. He needs to be tried, convicted, and sentenced.

I worry that "we" (GOP/right-conservative) are going to play an eye-for-an-eye game in response to the last 4 years.

If it's there on Comey then indict, try, and let the arguments dictate the verdict. I for one want a completely unbiased justice system.

We are not going to have a GOP controlled government forever. These crazy liberals will be in power again at some point, unfortunately.

 

[Brent in Az]

If the GOP wasn't so gutless, and started paying an eye for an eye long ago, we would not be as deep in this quagmire as we are.
Moving forward, we can not afford to let the left or deep state get away with anything. Its what put us here.
Children that don't get punished, are always emboldened to do it again.

 

[Rocked and Loaded]

Funny how the democrats didn’t cry about censorship when they were doing it.

And this wasn’t one comedian being pulled off by his employers for lying on air, this was ordinary accounts being banned. Not for TOS violations but at the behest of the government.

Yeah man, not how the justice system works.

Remember, there is a thing called "stare decisis."

Eventually it becomes a political, weaponized justice system, based on a precedent of charging/prosecuting whoever you want for opposing political views.

Comey needs to face the appropriate charges, stand trial, and let the verdict fall where it may based on the arguments. Simple as that.

Now if the person is guilty of a crime? Indict them, plain and simple.

Might want to tell that to Democrat's who weaponized the justice system during the Biden administration to a level we have never seen before. Just ask Trump.
I'm all for giving them a big dose of payback.
