in this instance, it appear that Comey tried to do the right thing but did it in such a fashion that it allowed the GOP to try and make something out of itā€¦ okay, he tried to inform the committe that a new source (of likely the same e-mails that they had already examined) but they came by it via the Weiner invvestigation. So, does he try and slow walk it because it thatā€™s what is done in an election year based on FBI protocols since the bureauā€™s inception or does he try and get ahead of a potential leak that would spur all kinds of mayhem.

So he picked option B and the GOP went ahead and did the very thing he was trying to avoid by taking his statement and spinning it in the ā€œbestā€ way possible for them. Apparently no lessons were learned by his previous attempt to handle this issue by adhering to the policy that had long been in place. Instead he attempted to thread that needle with a carrot while wearing mittens. Now, the GOP got their narrative, Comeyā€™s reputation is complete and total shit and weā€™re going to find out that this is exactly jack shit but the GOP STILL gets their narrative over the weekend and most of the media who are STILL wired for the horserace and anything anti-Clinton will gleefully speculate and never have to retract a fucking thing.

That is simply infuriating.
