Like quite a few people, if not most, I put aide everything I usually do on Thursdays so that I could watch the James Comey testimony before the Senate Intelligence Committee

For the most part I found it interesting, and totally understood Comey’s decision to begin documenting his conversations with the president because of the impression he was given during the one where he was asked for his loyalty. I had been in a situation where a certain conversation for whom I worked signaled my need to keep copious documents. For those who have never been there, you know that moment when it happens.

In my case it paid off.

I also saw how his answers to questions might be interpreted to support people’s opinions and preconceived conclusions regardless whether or not they agreed with him. And I was correct on that when Trump’s attorney gave his reaction to Comey’s testimony which was basically twisting answers to fit his narrative even if that required  verbal gymnastics.

The odd segment was Senator McCain.

I am sure when he was done, those who has invited him to attend, an invitation that was certainly extended to him since he is not a member of that committee but the Armed Services Committee.

The senator did not seem to grasp that if there are two unrelated investigations taking place at the same time and one either got resolved or ended because it had gone nowhere, that does not mean when you end it you have to end the other unrelated one.

McCain stated,,

“In the case of Hillary Clinton, you made the statement that there wasn’t sufficient evidence to bring a suit against her, although it had been very careless in their behavior, but you did reach a conclusion in that case that it was not necessary to further pursue her, yet at the same time in the case of Mr. Comey (He meant Trump) you said that there was not enough information to make a conclusion. Tell me the difference between your conclusion as far as former Secretary Clinton is concerned and Mr. Trump.”

Comey’s answer was clearly explained and clearly understandable.

This investigation was under way — still going when I was fired. So it’s nowhere near in the same place.”

That should have been the end of it.

But McCain could not grasp that. To him if one ended, so should have the other, and if one was still going on, the other should be as well. So his next few questions seemed to be an attempt to establish his confusing the Hillary case that was about her emails and ended when it was concluded that while Clinton may have been “extremely careless”, there were no laws broken so there was nothing to charge her, with the investigation around Russian interference in our elections.

Meanwhile the investigation into Russia’s meddling in the election and any possible collusion with elements of the Trump campaign, besides being a totally different thing, is still ongoing.

McCain, somehow, saw this as a double standard.

Given the opportunity after the hearing McCain explained his thinking.

“It seemed that he investigated, he decided without the Department of Justice deciding, that there would be no reason to bring charges against then-secretary of state Clinton and at the same time — candidate Clinton. And at the same time, the investigation continues to go on concerning President Trump and his people. I don’t understand how you can say in one case there’s no reasons to consider — continue it, and he says that the Russian engagement was a big deal in his words, and I agree with him, but yet it seems a double standard.”

One person is pulled over for speeding because he was 20 mph over the speed limit, and given a ticket. Another is pulled over for a burned out tail light, but when the officer taps it, the light comes back on because it was not burned out but loose, and after the bulb is tightened, the driver is allowed to drive on without a ticket.

To McCain, apparently, this would be a double standard.

He later said he may have been somewhat confused during hi questioning of Comey because he stayed up late.

Now that really puts us AARP aged people in an awkward light.
