Well you got it partially right.  I'm fine with the appeals court decision.  I'm not a lawyer and if the appeals court judge ruled, I can't make a legal argument against the decision.  I believe Comey is a lawyer, so if he thinks it is right, then it must have legal merit.  

What I said was that, in my view, the meetings were too cozy.  He likely was not thinkng about the optics.  The reason optics are important because it leads people to question your integrity when you are a public figure.  In the case of Trump, many people think he is too cozy with Putin and calls into question his integrity.  And I think Flynn got caught up in that.  A more experienced person would have steered clear.  Of couse he had no way of knowing at that point that the whole of the Trump Administration would be constantly called into queston.  

You are free to see it any way that you wish.
