more interesting is whether comey is acting deliberately or out of spinelessness or even panic.

I hope you can see how wrong what you have said here is. The standards women have to live up to is impossible to meet.

13. And I was one that liked him, I admit. But, I wasn't dating him either.

There have been times for me that when I was seeing someone, there's been little indications that something's not quite right and the alarms go off. A comment made, a questionable suggestion, just a weird, creepy vibe now and then. Warning..Warning!
Anthony Weiner's obsession with showing off his erect penis, like a young boy who just discovered he has one, is really a case for some major therapy. Guy's definitely NOT right. And now it's a problem for our National election.

That doesn't seem to bother people.

Weiner has problems. To say the least.

3. Marrying Weiner is certainly a head-scratcher for me!

She shouldn't have even gone on a 1st date with the sexual deviant! But that's just IMO.
Pelosi is wicked smart, it will be interesting to hear her take on Comey!

too close to the election and stuff! But, no prob yapping about HRC and her e-mails. Pelosi said Huma is a lovely person with great loyalty and then Nancy went there. "Poor judgement marrying Anthony Weiner"

12. I feel sorry for Huma.

She must be incredibly depressed at the moment. Sure, you can wonder what she ever saw in that schmuck. But her whole life is in a free fall over someone else's behavior. And as far as the "email/server" story goes, it's all bullshit manufactured by the right wing outrage machine.

I wish her well. Pelosi doesn't help by questioning her judgment.

14. I feel sorry for her too. She must be wracked with grief and guilt.

From what I understand she and HRC have almost a mother daughter relationship.
And Huma has a son. A baby son that Anthony had in bed with him while he was showing off and taking pictures of his latest erection to show a teenage girl. Given that, I actually would question any UNSUPERVISED visits between him and their child. Tragic for her, I'm sure.
