Abundant tweets about civil liberties & national security. "Has a longer memory than an elephant & keeps more records than Jim Comey.” Legendary potty mouth.

      We know now thru FISA warrants etc FBI has been seriously investigating. Nunes/Chaffetz show depth of WH panic. Comey doing his job 3/

      Trump's "tapp" claim-> Comey asks DOJ to refute. Perfect! Puts spotlight on Sessions/DOJ under Trump, as it should be 4/

      In short, he's shown he isn't partisan R, isn't beholden to Trump, willing to get fired while pursuing RUS investig'n. A man of integrity /5

      Oh, great. Then you can apologize for saying my view of Comey is "wrong" bc I believe most of those things. But he fucked up royally in July

      Then I'm sorry because it seemed to me you take negative view of him or don't question those who do. But glad to be wrong this time!

      I do have negative view of him--his self-righteousness leads him to avoid reviewing his own actions. That's based off years of covering him

      But that doesn't mean I think he is incompetent or partisan. Indeed self-righteousness is one reason why he may do well on RU investigation

      You know people aren't perfect? You know there's probably no better person we could hv as FBI Dir. at this moment in history?

      I've pointed out the second point. As to first, not asking Comey to be perfect. I'm asking him to be more humble abt matters of justice.

      I've also said blind hero worship from some of the same people who now excoriate Comey is one thing that has allowed him to ignore criticism

          Comey was never the hospital hero he pitched(s) himself as. Neither is he the partisan hack he's now taken as.

          I know you have deep legal/civil lib reason to say that but fact is he was willing to be summarily fired for doing what he thought was right

          Sure. And what he thought was right was NOT to end the dragnet. but to bully a judge in secret rather than do what Constitution requires.

          Governance requires people, at times, stand behind good men however imperfect. I've questioned my faith in him but he passes every test
