    Earnest said Monday that there are significant institutional responsibilities that the Department of Justice must fulfill. He said that President Barack Obama believes “Director Comey is a man of integrity. He’s a man of principle and he’s a man of good character.”

    Earnest said Obama believes that Comey isn’t trying to help one presidential candidate over another.

    He said Comey is in a tough spot, but the FBI director is in the best position to defend his actions in the face of significant criticism.

    Cheap and dishonest effort at trying to protect Obama from meddling in the scandal and in the election. He already pronounced Hillary innocent before any investigation was done. He then instructed his AG to order Comey to bungle the process, hand out immunity like Palestinians hand out candy after a terrorist act, and then praise the system for working. And there are still some morally and intellectually limited folks out there who choose to believe that Obama, Clintons, and their co-conspirators are not corrupt? Wow!

    For once, Comey said phooey to all these crooks, and was open about some facts. These goons will all end up with egg all over their faces, and hopefully in prison for a really long time.
