Didn't see a lie in that context. I countered with a +rep.

To be fair, Comey's boss is stumping for her.

Why did Comey Do It?
https://www.washingtonpost.com/opin...7f9bd0-4478-11e6-8856-f26de2537a9d_story.html
"Why did he do it? FBI Director James Comey spent 14 minutes laying out an unassailable case for prosecuting Hillary Clinton for the mishandling of classified material. Then at literally the last minute, he recommended against prosecution. …
Comey summed up Clinton’s behavior as “extremely careless.” … Yet Comey let her off the hook … negligence doesn’t require intent. Compromising national secrets is such a grave offense that it requires either intent or negligence. … But Clinton clearly intended to set up an unsecured private server. She clearly intended to send those classified emails. She clearly received warnings from her own department about the dangers of using a private email account. She meant to do what she did. And she did it. Intentionally. …
Yet Comey claims that no reasonable prosecutor would bring such a case. … Just last year, the Justice Department successfully prosecuted naval reservist Bryan Nishimura, who improperly downloaded classified material to his personal, unclassified electronic devices. The government admitted that there was no evidence that Nishimura intended to distribute the material to others. …
So why not Hillary Clinton? … Clintons are treated by a different standard. Only little people pay. … Alternatively … He gave in to implicit political pressure, the desire to please those in power. …
I would suggest … He did not want the FBI director to end up as the arbiter of the 2016 presidential election. … Prosecuting under current circumstances would have upended and redirected an already year-long presidential selection process. In my view, Comey didn’t want to be remembered as the man who irreversibly altered the course of American political history. …"
