Trump could appoint Shumer himself to be the new FBI director and they would still be acting like female dogs.
The democrats have proven beyond any reasonable doubt they are a bunch of cry baby lunatics.

Just hope and pray for Trey Gowdy to get the nod, he will go digging like an old retriever looking for duck.... Comey fired himself when he rendered a legal decision he could not render, and claimed it was because Loretta was "compromised" which should have been the red flag that he was in deep doo trying to do the administrations bidding without any rational justification. Even Trey said that he made several "opinions" (plural" and several of them ended up with legal violations that should have been prosecuted. But it is not the FBI's job to prosecute, so they should have just reported the facts and then let the chips fall where they may. The liberal world still thinks they can spin Trump into a quick impeachment, when it is their own history that will bite their a@@es.

The insiders could be running scared and this is the only obvious path at the moment to protect their jobs. Harrumph!

I caution against getting caught up in Washington politics. President Trump was never a "libertarian" and was seldom even a Republican until recently. By no standard is he even remotely an advocate of reality and reason, i.e., an objectivist (even with a small o).

The fact remains that the common perception is that President Trump fired FBI Director James Comey in order to block the investigation into the President's ties to Russia.

Yes, it is hypocritical of the Democrats to complain now, even though they were calling for James Comey's resignation or dismissal back when he was accusing or excusing Hillary Clinton. Note, however, that President Obama did not dismiss James Comey.

Moreover, it is traditional for all political appointees to tender resignations when the administration changes. (Indeed, the Cabinet resigns even with the President is re-elected.) So, President Trump had months in which to change FBI directors. He only did it now.

And, more to the point, he had no replacement in mind. Two days ago, four names were in the news; today, Reuters cites eleven. Consequently, the move to dismiss James Comey looks reflexive, reactive, not considered or calculated.

Myself, I put these headlines into the 1880s and imagine that it is President Cleveland or President Hayes. I have suggested that we view this in the context of the XYZ Affair or the Jay Treaty, both which were about foreign meddling in American politics.

Hard to know what is up. I hope it is a precursor to
an unbiased investigation and prosecution of criminal acts by the past admin and the guilty.

The thing is, Comey looks like what the head of the FBI should look like. He's a moderately handsome, tall, square-shouldered guy, whose very appearance says "You can trust me".That may well be the reason he didn't get the axe sooner. If Trump chooses someone short and wimpy, it will give the Dems something irrellavent to bitch about. However, It does remind me of an old saying "Never frighten a little man, he'll kill you."

Comb out your Comey, Comely...was tired of hearing about it before it started...guess we got another week and a half with this crud.

I don't see this as a phony issue. Trump said things in his letter firing Comey that really make him look guilty of obstruction of justice. See
