Words and stuff ending with an insult because I'm throwing a tantrum

Why is it that you attempt to make a political point with emotions and insults when I'm just trying to use logic?

Oh. Wait. Never-mind. That answer is obvious. Thanks for you and all those like you for continuing the status quo.

It's funny how many people in this thread are completely comfortable with the idea of a politically motivated criminal prosecution when no evidence of any crime exists.

Please explain how this would be a "politically motivated criminal prosecution" when those investigating etc (IG for the Intelligence agencies, the FBI and DoJ) are all under Obama? So it's a "politically motivated criminal prosecution" of a Dem by Dems?

it'll all make a lot more sense when Biden announces his candidacy.

Okay. Since some of you appear to be stuck in some 3,000 B.C. state of thinking, just answer this question for me:

If it is possible that any e-mail run through the private server can be deemed classified in the future SPECIFICALLY due to the position she held for the government, is or is it not an accurate statement to say that she should never have done so to begin with, and should accept responsibility for this error and move on?

What most of you seem to fail to realize is my problem with Hillary is how she dealt with this. Had she simply said, "Shit, guys.. I messed up. Got some bad advice from a resource. We're sorry, it was a mistake - we're going to take every step we can to correct it going forward and will cooperate with all relevant authorities to make this right" I would have IMMEDIATELY been on the praise Hillary bandwagon due to her integrity.

My problem with Hillary is the lies, scandal, and lack of accountability. This e-mail scenario is simply a palpable method to convey my frustration to others. By trying to dodge this entire thing she's just drawing more attention to herself in a negative way, and this speaks to me for her character and integrity - and also makes anyone with a brain question what else she's trying to get away with.. especially now that it's come to light that various people associated with the Clintons are being found in a state that demands a body bag, including a MI6 operative who was allegedly in possession of e-mails from Hillary's server that may or may not have been compromised by a foreign spy agency. Sure, a lot of speculation there but given how she's acted does it really seem that far from a possibility?
How would this work? Politicians do whatever the fuck they want to do, say sorry, and then we're all supposed to be okay with it?

Fuck that.

Still doesn't come up to Gategate though.

On a side note, this story actually makes me feel a bit better about Hillary. A tiny, tiny bit. Pico sympathy? But it still counts.

Maybe, although it's more likely to me that Obama is just staying out of their way rather than actively paving the way for Biden. I'm sure he'd prefer Biden - who wouldn't? - but he's also risking his own reputation if he steps in and squashes the investigation into Hillary after all Americans know what she has done.

And what has she done? Set up her own email server & used it the same way that the Bush Admin used RNC servers? Didn't handle the PR well?

The Horror!

I can hear the baby Jesus crying from here.

Biden? Why do Righties want Dems to nominate Biden?

Concern trolling.

Righties don't care if the Dems nominate Biden, bot. We're just pointing out that unlike the Hildabeast, he isn't a horrible person.

I'm sure you'd find plenty to rave about if he became the nominee, all promulgated from propaganda central & their well paid talking heads who've never been wrong about anything. Not Iraq, not the Ownership Society/ financial deregulation scam, not about Jerb Creator! tax cuts, not about trickle down economics, not even about Benghazi.

Might want to take a look at what you believe, like this-

Probably not. It'd be like Catholics denouncing the Virgin Mary.

Hey, I'm a Catholic (on paper) and I denounce the idea of the Virgin Mary. In fact, much of the worlds problems begin and end with the fear of women and the need for women to be pure and sinless. The three great religions created, by man, in the middle east all fear women to one degree or another. This fear exists in the extreme segments of all three religions but is at its worst with the extreme Muslim types that proscribe female circumcision.

The Christian idea of a Virgin Mary would be laughable were it not for the millions of people that have died in 2000 years because men were filled with self loathing because they felt in unnatural to be attracted to a pretty girl.

A family friend puts it differently- she says she's a recovering Catholic.

Former Clinton aide who helped set up server to plead Fifth Amendment to avoid subpoena

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/201...-plead-fifth-amendment-to-avoid/?intcmp=hpbt2

And the ringmaster starts to ensure the wagons are circled :whiste:

5th is intended to prevent self incrimination. But to declare it in advance :confused:
Given that the lawyer referenced the FBI investigation; it seems to imply that there is something behind the denials of the Clinton/State department teams

What a political clusterfuck.

Although this can be legit. Imagine you are the system admin who set this up. Why would you want to subject yourself to a Senate committee? While out to get Hillary he would be sacrificed. Its going to cost him money to hire a lawyer. Senators would wait to find the slightest discrepancy in answers to they can claim perjury.

Actually, since this involves government state department business, not just Hillary, it makes sense to plead the 5th.
You can take Hillary completely out of the equation, and still pleading the 5th would be the correct action.
This in itself, how the server was setup conforming to strict government standards, would justify pleading the 5th.
I'd suspect this order came directly from the state department itself, not anything Hillary related.
We're not just talking some run of the mill home server you buy off of Amazon, we're talking strict security issues that would harm national security if exposed in a public forum.
Knee jerk reactions, media tabloid reporting, jumping to conclusions, all a bunch of nonsense.
Sure, it sells papers and spikes TV ratings for MSNBC, FOX, and CNN, however what do we really know about this? Nothing.
But what the hay.... have fun in fantasy land while it lasts.

It's amazing how this was not any sort of secret for the entirety of her term as SoS but only became issue after she announced her run for president.

This entire brouhaha over what amounts to using home e-mail for work.

The FBI investigation will at worst find breeches of protocol/policy and that will be the end of it outside whatever the media bubble keeps propping up as "a very serious issue in Hilary's campaign."

This whole thing is absurd.

We'll have to see if this story gets any traction. Supposedly a hacker claims to have 32,000 of her emails.

Everybody & anybody called to testify before the Repub Inquisition Circus should assert their 5th amendment rights as a matter of principle.

The truth doesn't matter to Repubs- only what distortions they can make out of the truth matter to them.

Humm this reminds me more and more of Watergate.

What is she trying to hide why destroy so many emails? all she had to do is hand over the server untouched right from the beginning.

Most millenials have no clue what Watergate is.
