Enjoy the music but most of all enjoy your day.

A Comey Conundrum
I have watched most, maybe all, of James Comey’s interviews, from Stephanopoulos to Colbert to Maddow to Jake Tapper and on and on and on.
My take: He is truthful and flawed in an era of confirmation bias where so many Americans who find merit, honor and truth fake news, because they would rather hear lies about how elites like Comey are out to get them. I wish him well but I think the better counter argument for his kind is to convince aggrieved people that progressives are the ones who are best counted upon to protect them from the bad people they believe are out to get them.
