Tour2ma Posted May 14, 2017 Report Share Posted May 14, 2017 Podesta is a Hillary schooled crook. Was there a yearbook? Here's a nifty article with a timeline. . . http://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/opinion/the-conversation/sd-before-trump-fired-fbi-director-james-comey-democrats-wanted-his-dismissal-20170510-story.html And this one has a great vid of the lib flip floppers. . . https://townhall.com/tipsheet/katiepavlich/2017/05/11/brutal-rnc-releases-video-mashup-of-democrats-calling-for-comeys-firing-n2325654 Sandie Go Union Tribune? OK... Reading thru the timeline I see the following "calls for Comey's removal"... Jan. 24, 2017: The fading confidence in Comey continued toward the end of January when Rep. G.K. Butterfield, D-North Carolina, said “I think that James Comey needs to fade away into oblivion.” On Oct. 30, 2016, the New York Daily News editorial board called on Comey to resign: FBI Director James Comey’s democracy-bending decision to inform America, 11 days before its presidential election, that the bureau is digging into a trove of additional emails demands the highest condemnation. And he must resign. On Oct. 31, 2016, ThinkProgress justice editor Ian Millhiser wrote a post making “the case for firing James Comey”: On Nov. 7, 2016, Newsweek columnist Kurt Eichenwald didn’t just call for the FBI director’s firing — he said Comey was unfit for public service: So that's one elected Democrat, one editorial board, one editor and one columnist. Every other listed item is a criticism of Comey's decisions around his public remarks concerning the FBI's investigation of HRC's email practices that stops short of calling for his removal. Not to mention that to make the case for "hypocrisy" the timeline would have to be extended to include the same folks now decrying Comey's firing. I criticized, hopefully constructively, many direct reports in my working life... I only fired one for repeatedly failing to meet the minimum knowledge an engineer needed to function in a chemical manufacturing operation... and his termination followed a months-long improvement effort. It did not make him a bad person. He was a well-liked, hard worker. A couple years later I ran into him. He had found his way into the technical recruiting business in which he did well and loved his work. He actually thanked me for firing him. As much as he defended his abilities at the time, he knew his short-comings and they were eating him up inside. That pressure removed freed him to be successful in another area... But I digress... My point was that criticism does not equal termination. If it did, then who among us would not have been terminated many, many times over in our working lives. (Officially I had one "termination" in my career. That's legally how my acceptance of accepting a window had to be classified... and that actually grated on me... for a few minutes anyway...) In the end creating the above false equivalency is at the heart of the right's claims of "hypocrisy". That plus applying the broad brush of a minority view to all... but there's nothing new in that practice. As for the video... give me a summary and a couple time stamps, and I'll take a look.
