Pfft.
Seems to me they are in a position to demand nothing.
Bullshit.......The FBI is still under the DOJ's jurisdiction, and had a report alleging Trump's close business ties with the Kremlin been made, you and your ilk would be screaming and demanding for additional proof at this late date.
James Comey was appointed by Bush. He is a registered Republican and he obviously colluded with the House to drop this October Surprise.
If a Democrat FBI chief waited until 10 days before a national election to drop a vague story like this, Republicans on Capital Hill along with talk radio / FOX would cry corruption and call it a national emergency. They would make so much noise and run so many news stories that eventually the Democrat-FBI chief would be forced to step down.
There is absolutely no question about it.
The Left is weak for letting the Right do this. This is almost as bad as when the Reagan team met with Iran prior to the 1980 election to promise favors in exchange for a delayed release of American hostages. This is what Republicans do. They are at war, and they will stop at nothing to rig this election.
I think the left is pretty damn strong for having all of hillarys crimes of treason overlooked.
as far as Comey being republican? he is most likely afraid for his life, we know that people tend to die around the Clintons when they are under any investigation.
I wonder, if the Trump were to win, would Comey come out and suddenly tell the truth? if so, we could see hillary, obama and many more people end up in prison. It would be the finest year in American history.
Treason? Reagan sold weapons to the world's leading terrorist nation behind the backs of the American people, and he used the profits to fund an illegal war in Central America. Have you ever read the Iran/Contra report? This makes Hillary's emails look like a fucking petting zoo.
George Bush ignored an August 6 memo warning of an attack by Bin Laden using hijacked planes. And he didn't execute basic defense protocols to defend the eastern seaboard of the United States. This makes Benghazi look like romper room. And let's not even talk about the Niger uranium forgeries that made it look like the Hussein was building WMDs. When that hoax was revealed, members of the Bush administration should have been imprisoned - but the Left is weak.
Meanwhile you can't point to one smoking gun in Hillary's emails. If the Republicans on the House found ANYTHING of substance in her emails after spending close to a trillion dollars hunting her, those emails would have been leaked by Wiki or Russia ASAP. Nothing has come out, save stupid bullshit. You have smoke but no fire - and your party can offer scandals because your candidate doesn't understand policy issues.
But yeah. If Hillary's emails meet your standard for treason, than Ronald Reagan and Bush should have been impeached.
But let's face the facts about this election. The Dems have controlled the White House for 8 years. Rarely is a party granted 3 consecutive terms. I've alway thought that Hillary couldn't win this election. she is the weakest candidate the Dems have run in my lifetime by a wide margin. She has been effectively scandalized by the scumbag rightwing press, which is why Bernie should have been the nominee.
So if your side manage to lose the most winnable election in anyone's lifetime, than you need to rethink your approach. At some point the Republican Party has to offer policies rather than manufactured scandals and conspiracies.
