"talking in a manner that might be considered pressuring the FBI to stop an investigation"
Full stop! Red Flags abound! Abort, Fail, Retry!
Flip it around. If this was Obillary, there'd be nothing but TREASON! shouted and bannered from a great number of sources.
Fwiw, none of what has been revealed so far approaches treason imho. Waiting to see if this is an entertaining side show, or will turn out to be the main event.
Nothing about the current political environment is "by the book". I see Comey's hardon for the FBI and a reasonable case of CYA. I had a boss like Trump once. Only in this case he got fired and not me.
Each side learns from each other, and the strategies and tactics that are proven to work in one election cycle have a tendency to be used by the opposition parties in subsequent election cycles. We are now in the 2018-2020 cycle.
It reminds me of an attempt in the early '60s to do similar. We ended up w/ the F4 Phantom II. Pretty much living proof that a pig *can* fly given sufficient thrust.
Through upgrades, re-thinking tactics, and training, it was turned into an adequate, if expensive weapon.
It appears that every generation needs to make the same mistakes as their forebears.
Good post, it caused me to go down the rat-hole of linquistics for a bit. I checked out the GVS because I've always been a little fascinated with the arcane spellings/pronunciations of English. The google article on GVS was informative on the how but not on the why.
On another tangent, I would imagine that the invention vocal recordings from the late 1800's on have dramatically slowed pronunciation shifts.
"God forbid TFA referred to them as 'draught horses'."
Er, do you mean a period of below-average horses in a given region, resulting in prolonged shortages in its horse supply?/jk
Yah, my first thought was "what, you can't select:right-click:search google"? Then I quickly figured he was trollin' just to be a smart-ass, so, whatever.
But take a look at some of the responses! If one has at least a casual interest in Languages, some of the responses are quite entertaining/educational.

You're putting your own thoughts into his words, because he didn't say those words.

That sounds pretty fucked up.
All the stuff from and about Comey today, and this is the one and only article posted up to this point?
Some people do not have the curiosity level that let's them understand your arguments. They do and/or can not believe in the utility of pure research.
So I'd say you're just pissing against the wind (note for ESL folks: a colloquialism, not an ad-hominem).

Hello darkness my old friend...
Outstanding link! thx
...And Duke Nukem! oh wait, sorry, an old knee-jerk. Got all wrapped up in this nucular stuff.
What does land cost? Nuclear needs far less of it.
Unless it goes "boom", of course.
Amazing, who might have thought that an incredibly complex project won't hit its target date. Next your going to tell me it'll be over budget, too!
And because it won't hit that date (which is actually in the future, so...) the conclusion is that it is not effective or realistic.
I believe that a lot of very large complex projects did not hit their target dates, yet ended up being both effective and realistic.
If you're just bitching about the target date being unrealistic: well, yes, of course, nevermind then.
I was going to say "Firesign Theater" does it better, but then, I don't know...
Hah! Do you have a script running, or something?
RU sure ur leet h4ck7h3p14n37 anonymity will protect you, Jeremy from Portsmouth NH?
Yeah, maybe he should have kept his mouth shut, but this is also blaming the victim.
Also, remember he's 22, so there's that.
Should he have control? Well, there's lot's of laws around the world apply to privacy, so there's that.
And we all want a little attention, so there's that.
Absolutely. We don't need yet another reason to talk shit about CS majors and programming in general.
I think you've described at least 20% of the population. Half of those will be stealing your copper, the other half will be stealing your pension.
Lets say someone doesn't understand the physics of firing a .50 cal in space :)
Ha!
I still want to see the movie, though.

I say, only the best bread for the horses bred to bring our beer!

So, I give it a pass.
Nice troll. I mean that in a good way. You got mostly considerate or considered responses.
Kumbaya, y'all

You have no self control. No phone will ever fix that.
Fwiw, tfs said that it did.
