A month ago the FBI was straight-shooting & non-partisan when it was ordered to stop investigating Clinton.  Now, it needs to be broken up and is a centerpiece to partisan politics, because it gained a conscious and is completing what it should have doing the entire time.

BTW, Bernie supporters, do you agree with PP above who states the election is rigged against Clinton?

Hmmm, I think there were many folks who were troubled by Comey's break from FBI protocol last summer in making a public announcement.  [/quote]

It's not the FBI Agents or Comey.  It's *hem others in the DOJ.  [b]Sounds to me like the FBI is doing everything they can to tell the American people that Hillary Clinton is a criminal.  [/b]Comey literally laid out the case against her in his first announcement.  I think it was pretty clear his hands were tied.  He gave the American people too much credit by assuming they could read between the lines.

Just my opinion. I can't stand either candidate, so for me it doesn't matter.  I'm just sitting back and watching.

That sounds to me like a witch hunt. Either there's something there to indict or there isn't. They don't get to say, nothing to investigate but hint hint there is.[/quote]

They have to have someone willing to prosecute.  Without a prosecutor, it doesn't matter how much evidence they find.[/quote]

If they had recommended an indictment, THAT would have been saying everything they could say about Hillary being a criminal.  And Lynch was already on the record as saying she would accept the FBI's recommendation, so not prosecuting would be politically untenable.

And that might make sense - but only to someone who doesn't understand that that's not the way the FBI works.  They don't make "recommendations".  That's why those of us who understand the FBI know that something is off. The FBI conducts an investigation and turns the material over to a federal prosecutor.   The end.  It's up to the prosecutor to decide what to do with it.  The problem is most people watch too many television crime dramas and don't understand this.  [/quote]
I've given cases to DOJ with a recommendation, so don't tell me I don't know what I am talking about. [/quote]

Yes, the Bureau can make a recommendation that charges be brought but DOJ ultimately is vested with the prosecutorial discretion whether to seek a grand jury indictment.
