Andrew McCarthy hits it right on the button here.
....in April 2016, when the
Clinton-emails investigation was in full swing but before it was
anywhere close to completion, President Obama gave a nationally
televised interview in which he made clear that he did not want criminal
charges brought against his former secretary of state — and the already
certain Democratic candidate to succeed him. Obama made two duplicitous
points: Mrs. Clinton (1) had exhibited “carelessness,” but nothing
worse, by using a private, non-secure email system to conduct State
Department business, and (2) had not intended to endanger American
national security when she stored and transmitted classified information
on this system.
The FBI has taken the heat because it ultimately applied these
disingenuous guidelines publicly and without apology. But it was the
political leadership of the executive branch that called the tune —
which seems like news only because the media’s revulsion over
presidential attempts to influence criminal investigations would await
Donald Trump’s inauguration....
Well, yes--Obama, the Alinskyite/Marxist 'called the tune.' But his FBI Director licked his boot and did the wrong thing, becoming a Profile in Cowardice.
That's not how one obtains sainthood.
