Jim Comey and his buds were never “loyal conservatives.” When I served as USA in the Southern District of Georgia, Comey bragged about his cozy relationship with Sen. Schumer who made his confirmation as USA in NY and as Deputy AG easy. Comey looked for ways to undercut and embarrass the White House.He was upset that Gonzalez was appointed Ashcroft’s replacement as AG. Comey was a trojan horse unwittingly placed at DOJ.
