Well, it takes brass balls to recommend felony prosecution for a former First Lady and frontrunning candidate for the presidency. Comey is in a tough spot. No matter what he does he'll be forever disgusting to half the country.

I think he'll try to split to the baby and do, for example, what they did with Petraeus. Maybe not. For one thing, what she did appears to have been an order of magnitude more serious than the Petraeus acts and had far more damaging potential.

Hell, I don't know. It just looks really bad to me. At least in the Petraeus case, there was really no reason for him to believe that information would have fallen into the hands of foreign governments. In Hillary's case, we essentially know it did. Maybe that doesn't matter.

GWB appointed judge rules any PC connected to the internet has no expectation of privacy.

"A federal judge for the Eastern District of Virginia has ruled that the user of any computer that connects to the Internet should not have an expectation of privacy because computer security is ineffectual at stopping hackers."


Thus, no warrant needed….


"Senior U.S. District Judge Henry Coke Morgan Jr. upheld the use of the warrant and even stated that the warrant is unnecessary because of the type of crime being investigated and because users should have no "objectively reasonable expectation of privacy."
