A group of career FBI people are not held to the same legal standards or expectations as the Supreme Court. No one gets to write a dissenting opinion, nor is there transparency around their deliberations. The SCOTUS have the luxury of interpreting the law as they see fit, as is their function. I would liken the prosecution team more to a group of career military officers. I am not impugning their integrity, but I wouldn't question their decision to unanimously follow the wisdom and guidance of the general, in this case Comey. I wouldn't expect the profession of arms to dirty itself in a political knife fight. Perhaps Comey's reprimand signals a certain level of dissent or recognition that while it is blatantly obvious Clinton violated the intent of the law, there is inadequate evidence to prove said intent.The part you're trying desperately to avoid is the unanimity of judgement among the investigators & prosecutors. It's like losing in the SCOTUS 9-0.
Well, unless you're ready to impugn the integrity of all of them. Are you ready to go there?
FOIA? That's between the well financed legal assholes like the RNC & the State Dept. Maybe State should just drop everything to comply, huh?
