I don't think he(she) said they don't count. In today's politics, unfortunately, that is how our politicians act. Whether it is Dems or Repubs, they always focus on whatever scandal is relevant at the time to try and discredit the other candidate or whomever. Unfortunately, our current crop of politicians seem to be a bit worse. They don't focus on the actual problems of our country, they just focus on their own party and come up with plans on destroying the other party at whatever cost.
"I don't think he(she) said they don't count."
She TOTALLY IGNORED THEM and ONLY talked about the repubs.
"Unfortunately, our current crop of politicians seem to be a bit worse."
I disagree.
I don't know how old you are but, I have been watching them for a LONG time.
Your hero Comey disagrees with the propaganda you're repeating. Cummings asked him if the Republicans initiated the investigation and the answer was no. Comey also said this criminal investigation was warranted. He further said that there was no appropriate comparison to anything Condoleeza Rice or Colin Powell did.
Is skeptical a synonym of ignorant?
Got any proof that he said the highlighted line? I watched the entire hearing and didn't hear anything like that and common sense tells me that since the FBI did not investigate Rice and Powell's use of private emails that he couldn't/wouldn't comment on something he didn't investigate or comment on the 5,000 emails that the Bush administration deleted.
I can guarantee (unless reps lose control of congress) that Congress will start some sort of impeachment process. As they have the power to do so even for a misdemeanor...
How can she be impeached? She has no government job.
ok, so I looked up what Comey said about the differences between HRC and Patreaus. Comey is corrupt and lying. He said Patreus had vast amounts of classified intel. So did HRC. He said he lied about it and they found it under stuff in his attic with a search warrant. They found thousands of missing emails that were supposed to be turned over by HRC after they confiscated her server, which is definitely a lie on her part for not turning them over. He said Patreaus exposed that intel to people unauthorized. HRC did the same thing. He said the General admitted that what he did was wrong. HRC acted like she did nothing wrong. THAT IS THE DIFFERENCE! Admit what did was wrong and get prosecuted, lie about it and play stupid and walk free. If anyone doesn't see the complicate nature Comey played in this they are fooling themselves.
Yeah, that's what he said. The facts say otherwise. Many other people have been and will be prosecuted for doing far less than what Hillary Clinton did.
And he said those cases were not what the media made them out to be. They were not less but MORE than what Hillary did.

There is four hours of his testimony but yes, he did say this as I watched it carefully. Would take a bit of time to find that exact exchange though. He said Condi - as that was the specific one asked about - did not do the same thing (only had private email on gov't server) and he thought it was appropriate to investigate Clinton because it was a different thing that Clinton did (e.g. private server).
Get out of your bubble. He's not lying. He's showing the law isn't good enough and highlighted why he had to make this decision. He's also handing the Republicans a golden ticket to her prosecution - the perjury charge. On top of that, he in all but the word itself called her stupid. Not a good day for Clinton.
It is not a good day for Clinton. But Comey looks as if he is guilty. When showed a time line of Clinton meeting Lynch, Hillary being questioned by the FBI and Comey's decision of no indictment. Comey was so angered it reminded me of Bill Clinton when he said he did not lie about Monica Lewinsky.
Comey would not talk about the Clinton Foundation ,if the case ended or going forward. This looks bad. Too protective of the Clintons. There could be a nice bonus sitting in a foreign bank for Comey put there by the Clintons
I've been around for a while now. I've seen presidents go down and lies, deceit and corruption. But, I have NEVER EVER seen anything so blatant as to exonerate Hillary knowing what she's done. I have lost complete faith in our justice system. It's a free for all from this point forward. This is far from over.
I have absolutely no doubt she should be charged with racketeering.
Petreus deliberately gave classified (marked classified) material to someone who had no clearance -- and he did this KNOWING that he was breaking the law.
I don't believe that is true.
I think he was a having an affair with an Army Intelligence officer who held a TS clearance.

Yeah, don't think or believe that at all. I think trying to make out Comey as some bad guy is not the way you should go. If he got clearance from AG Lynch or Obama beforehand to give that press conference, he would have NEVER been allowed to slam Hilary like he did. She deserved it completely too.
I think his refusal to answer questions on the Clinton Foundation, especially when he said he wouldn't comment on if he was doing an investigation on it or not, de facto confirmed they're investigating it. Because if they weren't at all, he would have just said so. Thought that was interesting actually. Of note, the FBI never comments on active investigations.
