So this wasn't an insider job, but within hours of it being announced, Obama is appearing at a Hillary rally in N.C. and showing absolutely no dignity at all in leading a chant of "Hillary! Hillary!Hillary! Hillary!"

Dignity. Right.

Obama just lauded Hillary for how she treats people "when the cameras are off."

L. Fucking. O. L.

Might want to check with some of those old Secret Service agents.

Speaker Ryan does a great job of hammering today's corrupt outcome.

"While I respect the professionals at the FBI, this announcement defies explanation. No one should be above the law. Declining to prosecute Secretary Hillary Clinton for recklessly mishandling and transmitting national security information will set a terrible precedent. The findings of this investigation make clear that Secretary Clinton misled the American people when she was confronted with her criminal actions. The American people will reject this troubling pattern of dishonesty and poor judgment."

No, they won't.

I'm trying not to get ahead of myself this time. I was disappointed for months when Obama didn't get me on one of his death panels.

If Hillary does win, I hope some media members follow up with Ryan and ask him why his prediction didn't come true.

Right after they ask the guy who predicted the FBI riots why his prediction didn't come true.

Your inside sources are like my five-year-old nephew. Get caught being blatantly wrong, just say "Yeah, that's what I said!"

The people I have talked to have their opinions. What you are referring to are comments I made after talking to several folks back in January. A lot of folks thought this should have played out much more quickly. I was wondering if it would play out at all - get the can kicked down the road beyond November or January. Anyway, we now have a position. Which can still be used as an argument against HRH HRC.

This was a huge mess of her own creation. I haven't read all the news yet - did Comey whitewash the dozen or so co-conspirators too?

"The American people will reject this troubling pattern of dishonesty and poor judgment."

That's where he's wrong. By default, the American people this November will have to affirm somebody's pattern of dishonesty and poor judgement. They're both shitty, although not equally so.

Interesting perspective from Eric Lichtblau:

He did not mention Mr. Petraeus by name, but Mr. Comey and other F.B.I. officials were known to be deeply upset by the Justice Department’s willingness to let Mr. Petraeus plead to a misdemeanorcharge in the case. That decision complicated the Clinton investigation enormously for the F.B.I. because the case against Mrs. Clinton appeared much weaker to them than the case against Mr. Petraeus.

In the Petraeus case, the retired general acknowledged in a taped interview that he knew that some of the “black book” journals he gave to his mistress, Paula Broadwell, for a book she was writing were “highly classified,” according to court documents. He then lied to F.B.I. investigators, denying that he gave her any classified information.

In contrast, Mr. Comey said in the Clinton case that “we did not find clear evidence that Secretary Clinton or her colleagues intended to violate laws governing the handling of classified information.”

I like this part of Comey's statement:

To be clear, this is not to suggest that in similar circumstances, a person who engaged in this activity would face no consequences. To the contrary, those individuals are often subject to security or administrative sanctions. But that is not what we are deciding now.

Pull her security clearance!

Also, he pointed out her flat-out lies about classified material.

For example, seven e-mail chains concern matters that were classiﬁed at the Top Secret/Special Access Program level when they were sent and received. These chains involved Secretary Clinton both sending e-mails about those matters and receiving e-mails from others about the same matters. There is evidence to support a conclusion that any reasonable person in Secretary Clinton’s position, or in the position of those government employees with whom she was corresponding about these matters, should have known that an unclassiﬁed system was no place for that conversation. In addition to this highly sensitive information, we also found information that was properly classiﬁed as Secret by the U.S.Intelligence Community at the time it was discussed on e-mail (that is, excluding the later “up-classiﬁed” e-mails).
