And it my opinion it probably should.  This is just ****ing ridiculous.

I read it and though meh.  She isn't the first one and the people she sent them to still had to archive the emails.

 

I am sure they all do it.

 

With that said, **** Hillary.

[Glen]

I dunno, man.  Seems wonky to me.  Ever since email was a thing (god, I'm gettin' old) I've had some sort of official email address on which to conduct official business.  This just doesn't feel right.

 

That said, I do agree with your third paragraph.

[Glen]

Ultimately though, the republicans will make political hay out of this for a month or so, the democrats will say NBD, and it will blow over.

The only way to get rid of Hillary is to put a stake in her heart.

[Blarg]

She is incredibly incompetent.

Yet compared to 90% of politicians she's like a reincarnation of Pluto Plato

My understanding is this is not necessarily uncommon. Colin Powell also used a private email (retention restrictions are more strict now).

 

But you have to scratch your head about the political naivety of Clinton and her advisers. They have to know there are rules for Clinton, and rules for everybody else. Every step the Clinton's take is watched like a hawk...her husband's presidency should have been proof enough of that. What in the hell were they thinking? It reminds me a lot of her first campaign where they just ignored what was happening around them and just assumed they were right because they were the Clintons. I can imagine dozens of house/senate investigations between now and 2016. Is Mark Penn still advising her? Geesh.

 

edit: And I seriously doubt this "takes her down". She hasn't even announced a candidacy yet.

i like her total denial of ever having worked for the law firm in the whitewater real estate deal.

then, billing receipts for the same law firm in the same case mysteriously appeared in the white house.

hilliary billed the clients in the case for over 60 hours.

a totally amoral, sociopathic liar.

wouldn't silver bullets also do the trick? and maybe a little garlic, also?

"Mr. Blanton said high-level officials should operate as President Obama does, emailing from a secure government account, with every record preserved for historical purposes. 

"Personal emails are not secure,” he said. “Senior officials should not be using them.”

 

The revelation about the private email account echoes longstanding criticisms directed at both the former secretary and her husband, former President Bill Clinton, for a lack of transparency and inclination toward secrecy.

 

two thoughts about this: because personal emails are not secure, they could rather easily be intercepted by a third party, and that raises security concerns. the other thought is that because they're personal, she or her aides can delete them, and that's no different than shredding documents.

 

i'd like to hope this will bring her down, but the media loves the idea of her running for president, so i doubt much becomes of it. but yeah, it's just another log on her fire of secrecy.

[Amazing Larry]

The NSA could retrieve all of her emails including the deleted ones if they really wanted to. It's too bad their busy spying on average Joe's to be bothered.

Thanks Obama

in before Kurt blames Fox

Did Thomas Jefferson use a personal e-mail account?  

[Blarg]

Snipers in Bosnia couldn't take Hillary down.

Or so she said.

[Jay]

LOL at thinking anything would ever "bring Hillary down". You think the majority of voters know anything about the candidate they vote for aside from their race/gender/party?

 

No but they know they hate Hillary.

[Angel Oracle]

That's Shillary! 

[Hollyw00d]

This isn't bringing down anyone.

This is but a pimple on the arse that is Washington

[fan_since79]

This is merely a bump in the road on the way to her coronation as President in 2016. The media loves her. That's all you need to know.

 

Scott Walker is the worst villain in history for not graduating from college. That's the state of our political reporting and analysis today.

[TobiasFunke]

Yes....that's why Scott Walker was the worst villain in history in a lot of peoples' eyes...

[red321]

yeah...media loves her...we never get constant reporting on what Hillary is doing....funny stuff
