If he loudly complains about the FBI investigation, it will remind people that he, um, "misspoke" when said that he learned of Shrillary's home grown server "in the news along with everyone else" when in reality he had been communicating with her from early-on. Any communication coming from the President is by definition classified, so our Dear Leader broke the laws relating to the handling of classified information.

Yes, Hillary is just one crooked politician to the CORE. Obama's "legacy" might be more important to him than saving Hillary's hind end, and he will just let her twist in the wind.

That still leaves a bunch of issues such as improprieties within the Clinton Foundation, leaving sensitive emails on her server for months or years after she left office, "wiping" that server, and several others.

Comey was definitely saving his ass by reopening the investigation. He could leave Comey where he is, and put Guiliani as Atty General and dump Lynch in the toilet, or jail

I think it could be worded to pardon her for anything relating to her time when she was sec of state

Pardon her for what? I can see the possibility of a blanket pardon for issues that have come to light, but I don't think he has the authority to pardon her for things that may come to light after he leaves office.

Wouldn't it be ironic if Trump wins and appoints Comey to replace Lynch?

Where is Obama? He hasn't commented on the reopened FBI investigation, as far as I can tell. It's a no-win situation for him. If he doesn't comment, he will appear to support a decision by his appointee Comey that could cost his party the Presidency. If he does comment (or fire Comey) it will be seen as political interference in an ongoing investigation and an attack on the "independence" of the Justice Department. Either way it won't look good for Obama or his legacy.

Comey already did. He realized he screwed up by pandering to her and stopping the investigation. Too much additional stuff was coming out. He saved himself by re-opening the investigation, and you see the clinton and establishment reaction. He was saving himself. Now he has ruined his career IF hillary wins, and maybe saved it if Trump wins

Let's see if some members of the Clinton cartel abandon ship or even turn on her to save themselves. Especially if Trump wins.

The Clinton cartel is now going after Comey full blast in an effort to hide whatever it is. They want to convict him of violating some Hatch act thing. I want Trump in there to stop the clintons forever.

Fox reported that the meta data for the emails showed there were new emails related to Hillary and almost certainly contain classified data.
if true this could spell real trouble .....more classified data on a non-secure computer

It's never too late if it ends up with Clinton where she belongs: in jail.

That's got to be a novel experience for her...

Fox News headline: "John Fund: If Hillary wins, we’ll have a potential blackmail target in the White House". Isn't the word "potential" superfluous?

It should have been closed long ago -- after Hillary was found guilty. There is no excuse for her to still be dodging while she waits to pardon herself.

Thought that moniker looked new so me dino clicked on it.
Welcome to the Gulch.
FEAR. If there was An Allosaur's Amended Dictionary, Comey's face would be beside that word.

Mr. Comey loves his own power too much to be selfless. He's motivated by something else. I suspect the other shoe will drop soon enough.

Let's see, to re-cap, two jets with powerful people coincidentally pull up side by side ...for a discussion only about grandkids? I think it went more like this: Prosecute my wife and she takes the President with her. Now that's a reason for Comey to leave matters alone. So, what motivates Comey now? FEAR

What did she even do wrong? Nothing was sensitive. Take her word for it. I guess we have to. Most of it was deliberately deleted. Even sweet older ladies get caught telling me Hillary is "full of shit", but I am the kind of person who gives the benefit of the doubt. She could have had the best interests of... something in mind when she used a private email server to discuss state secrets. And since something is unknown, we must respect her decision. Everyone except the opposition deserves a second chance. We don't have all the facts, so how can we judge? Just because she has all the facts doesn't mean we are capable of understanding what must have been a difficult decision. Excuse me. 40,000+ difficult decisions.

If Obama pardons Cruella, I mean the head of the Clinton Crime Syndicate, aka HRC, she can no longer plead the fifth. This could be very interesting indeed. I agree. Karma is going to bite all of these criminals in the @rse. Let the dominoes fall where they may!

Agreed. Dog and pony show.

In this case it might be that Hillary divides and Trump conquers.

This is priceless!!

“The Democratic Coalition Against Trump alleges Mr Comey is in breach of the Hatch Act, which bars federal employees from political activity.

‘It is absolutely absurd that FBI Director Comey would support Donald Trump like this with only 11 days to go before the election,’ said Scott Dworkin, Senior Advisor to the Democratic Coalition Against Trump.

‘It is an obvious attack from a lifelong Republican who used to serve in the Bush White House, just to undermine her campaign. Comey needs to focus on stopping terrorists and protecting America, not investigating our soon to be President-Elect Hillary Clinton.’”

Me dino don't think that scared little man had much going for self-respect in the first place.
His self-interest shown by kissing up to the regime cost him the respect of not only his FBI agents but much of the American public as well.
It would have been a lot easier to do the right thing by turning such obvious criminality over to a grand jury
Now me dino guesses he's doing this weasel a wiener dance in a hope to dodge a dereliction of duty accusation farther down the road.

Hello OA,
The division is evident. It is one of the oldest tactics in the book divide and conquer.
