I read your name as just-so-me-guy...yeah, it fits.

And so gleefully fucking mean and self-satisfied?

Speaking as an OG Douchebro Hipster 1.0 (SV in the '80s), I like the original betterer.

The rogue FBI agents will have enough time to retire before she gets into office. It is a certainty that every one of the agents who pushed Comey into a corner has 20 years+ of federal service. They filed their retirement paperwork about the time that the Email nothing-burger evaporated with no charges. They have nothing to lose and will not be there when she takes office.

And the ones who are still there after January 20, 2017 are going to wake up to find a horse head in their bed. And a friendly representative from the Justice Department Inspector General waiting for them at the office when they bang in.

No thanks. I can grow my own potatoes, and I understand that's half the battle right there.

Ummm....posting it twice does not, in fact, render it credible.

Funny thing I just read in the middle of that long-ass 1995 WP article about Travelgate (which is how articles used to be, kids!):

"Several White House officials tried but failed to intercept Myers to delete the reference to the FBI investigation contained in "talking points" that Watkins had given her. It is against FBI policy to discuss the existence of an investigation. Myers's public comments put the White House in the awkward position of knowing details of a supposedly confidential FBI probe."

Well, well, well, Mr. Comey! Seems like things used to be very different back in the day, huh?

I admire your restraint.

Probably regular. It'll be at least another five tears before the heat-proof alligators are ready for field testing.

Imagine the shitstorm if they hadn't fired Dale and his crew? Republicans could have "uncovered" this grifty-griftmaster in such a high position in the Clinton Whitehouse who was hiding all the records (AKA actually not keeping any) while tucking all these monies into his personal account, and ..yet...nothing had been done about it?!

For fuck's sake, squared. Yes, you should shitcan all the grifters! Don't let them get their filth on you! That was the goddamn right thing to do!

As nice addition, less than 6 months after all those chumps that were fired, they had other jobs found for them -- except for Griftking Dale and his assistant, who retired, as the article notes.

I think my favorite thing about him is that he was the most beautiful child ever born and he lost his head in a misunderstanding and now looks pretty ridiculous with his elephant head and little pot belly, but he's not the least bit resentful and laughs all the time.

Well--seems like Jason Chaffetz is angling for the title of poster boy for the most irritating and despised asshole in Congress (by thinking people.)

Awwwwww fuck. This puts us squarely back to the late 90s. Everything...and I mean everything had become Hillary's fault. Break a nail? Hillary did it. Run out of toilet paper? Hillary's fault.

So disappointing. Well I hope she at least fills it with sharks with laser beams.
