1. Agree. eom

[apcalc]

2. Agree....how does he have the balls to put this out there

And stay silent on the trump/Russian connection?

He should be silent about everything.....a goddam political shill. Should resign now!

3. Watching Joy Reid and they were saying how wrong Comey was

in deciding to "inform" everyone of possible "new evidence" for Clinton's case, while he has kept EVERYTHING related to the FBI investigation on Trump's campaign under wraps (concerning the Trump campaigns ties to Russia).

4. Agreed. I wasn't on board for that yesterday, but after hearing that the FBI are investigating Trump

campaign ties to Russia for the first time this morning on AMJoy - that's how silent the FBI has been on Trump - it's time for Comey to come out publicly, take responsibility and apologize to Hillary Clinton and for his unprecedented actions, explain that there's no there there, and tender his resignation.

This will shutdown the Republican lying machine in one fell swoop and bring our elections back into the realm of fairness.

[saltpoint]

6. Damn, but I sure like your assessment and

recommendations.

12. Thanks, saltpoint. I believe this is the only way for Comey to salvage his supposed good rep as an

independent thinker and law-above-Party kind of public servant.

If he doesn't do any of the things I've listed, then that venerated reputation should be stripped from him a.s.a.p., and he should be seen as just another Republican partisan-hack who tried to derail a Democrat's presidential bid.

13. It sure looks as if he's trying to fiddle with the

wires behind the stage.

Perhaps his boss, Attorney General Lynch, could assign him to lead a team of investigators to Moscow to look into the collusion between Putin and Trump, the team to dispatch within 24 hours and to remain in Moscow until two days before Thanksgiving.

Absent that, I think a meeting should be arranged on an urgent schedule with President Obama, AG Lynch, and Mr. Comey, the result of which involves Comey issuing an apology and stepping down.

7. Comey = Silent on Trump, Maximum Volume on Hillary.

Comey has to go - now.

[saltpoint]

9. That's what it looks like to me, too, dalton99.

I think an expeditious meeting between Lynch and Comey should take place -- say, within the hour -- and then after Lynch has marshaled the relevant material and reported it to the White House, another meeting with the president, Lynch, and Comey, the gist of which would be that it is in the best interests of everyone if Comey resigned.

Unless there is some information Comey has that the rest of us do not have, it looks at the moment as if he is attempting to subvert the democratic process with scurrilous information.

[saltpoint]

5. Does anyone know how these things

work? Does Loretta Lynch call a meeting with Comey to learn what happened and then report back to her boss in the White House? Or does the Chief Executive initiate the discussion between Lynch and Comey?

And then maybe those three principals meet the next day?

It seems to me that Comey should offer to resign. He is surely perceptive enough to know that he is now the source of significant disruption.

[True_Blue]

8. Agreed

He needs to step down or face an investigation.

[toddwv]

10. Well, at least we know that

the next president won't be appointing a Republican to head the FBI.

[saltpoint]

11. : ) eom

14. He's got a 10 year term which expires in 2023

If he doesn't resign, Hillary is stuck with him.
