ONE PLUS TEN EQUALS ZERO

Sometimes things happen that make you scratch your head in wonderment.  Terms like “what were they thinking” and “how in the world could that happen” jump into mind.  According to all the reports I could find, FBI director Comey is an honorable and sincere man.  My question is this:  if that is the case, how in the world could he, after the litany of points in his statement, not recommend action by the justice department against Hillary Clinton?’  Another statement that comes to mind is one I grew up with:  “if it sounds like a rattler, and looks like a snake, don’t pick it up.” 
In Mr. Comey’s statement, he clearly pointed out Hillary’s negligence, her knowledge of classified information, the deletion of State Department documents and putting classified documents on unsecured devices.  All of these points are clearly in violation of United States statues and all are punishable under the law. Whether or not intent was involved has no bearing on the matter.  Mr. Comey is more than aware that Ms. Clinton is criminally vulnerable and should at least face prosecution. 
There is also the question of what happens when someone knowingly lies under oath during a Senate/Congressional hearing, or during an FBI investigation.  How many times have we heard from the mouths of Ms. Clinton and her covey of accomplices,” I never, I didn’t”, when it clearly is in fact that they did.
I most generally do not like indulging in the game of “what ifs” to make a point because conjecture is seldom supported by solid fact.  However, (a somewhat infamous word), in this case because of the nature of the player s involved, I have to wonder: did Mr. Comey’s sense of decency conflict with the narrative that was politically forced upon him; did he try to tell us as citizens that the fix was in and that there was no way Hillary would be convicted of her crimes; and that the Attorney General of the United States would never prosecute the case.  Regardless of fact, like it or not, the POTUS would ensure that no Democratic nominee for President ever faced even the possibility of conviction.


Read the items below and then ponder a bit:
·         FBI Director James Comey concluded that Hillary was "extremely careless" in handling our nation's secrets. 
·         He admitted that no reasonable person could have believed putting these emails on a private server was at all appropriate or acceptable. 
·         He admitted that 110 emails on the server were classified at the time they were sent—showing that Hillary not only lied, but knowingly endangered national security as Secretary of State. 
·         He admitted that Hillary deleted work-related emails before turning them over to the State Department, (despite her claims otherwise.) 
·         And most shocking, Mr. Comey even admitted that it's likely foreign governments hacked her emails—and that our adversaries could know critical secrets about the U.S. Government because of Hillary's actions.
Now look up Section 793f of the Act. Then for clarification, what is the definition of negligence.  Remember the definition of the Espionage Act.  History does repeat itself.  Billy’s back.
