New York Times: Hillary Clinton illegally used private email for all State Dept. business

Yeah but sadly sarcasm is often lost on people down in the D&D, those on the left thought you were serious about it.

 

He blamed Bush for almost everything for his entire term. I'd hardly say he let bygones be bygones

 

In still wondering where the results of the FBI investigation are on that one

 

Except how would you know that there was no classified information in Cheney's emails if no investigation was conducted?
Consider that the only reason we know about Clinton's emails wasn't because they were the initial subject of investigation but from an tangential investigation into Benghazi. We don't know anything about Cheneys email because there hasn't been an investigation and unlike Clinton he did successfully delete them before there could be one.

 

This. If I recall correctly Obama made some statements early in his terms that he wasn't going to engage in criminal investigations of the previous Admin..

 

If there's no evidence, what reason is there to launch an investigation? Is there even credible accusations that there was classified information involved?

That's the kind of thing you need in order to get an investigation launched. Evidence, credible accusations, you know, that kind of thing.

The reason we know about Clinton's emails was because they were discovered during another investigation, if something like that happened with Cheney's emails, then there might have been an investigation. There wasn't. If he was as reckless and irresponsible as Hillary, I'd be totally fine with him getting prosecuted to the furthest extent of the law....you just have to come up with some evidence.

People get away with breaking the law all the time, that doesn't mean that we should ignore it when people get caught.

 

Nobody cares about that, especially in the states where it is legal.

 

I am not fond of going around threatening to throw politicians in jail unless they truly were being malicious. Its one thing to be texting underage girls and pay-to-play corruption, but its another thing to scream Benghazi and deleting work emails. If Hillary was truly sending classified info over private servers, this should disqualify her ... but I am not going to advocate jail.

 

What is the precedent that has been set for others that mishandled classified info? Is justice blind or not?

 

Didn't say anyone did. I certainly don't care just provided an example of him high on the road

 

Malice is not required to be guilty and convicted of mishandling classified information so I don't see what that has to do with anything. Others have seen the inside of a jail cell for it, why should she be any different?

 

She did send classified info over a private server. That's just the ones they missed when they deleted emails.

State Department emails found on weiner laptop. these emails were not duplicates . huma's busted

 

"according to a U.S. official."

That's the source of this article?

Cool story bro

Looks like another FBI Clinton hater leak.

 

Thre was plenty of this to investigate the previous administration about. Have you forgotten about things like no-bid contracts to Halliburton, tons of money for the rebuilding of Iraq missing, Abu Ghraib, etc.. ?

Except the investigation into Clinton was driven politically by an opposition led committee whose own members admitted it was to damage Clinton politically. (an investigation that the committee admitted couldn't find any wrong doing on what they were initially set out to do) It wasn't a criminal investigation until Congress referred it to the DOJ. The Democrats when they were in charge of Congress and the Obama Administration chose not to investigate the previous Admin. That might've been a mistake but it didn't happen.

As far as breaking the law I will point out that previous Administration did break the law in regards to the use of torture and several other things in the prosecution of the war on terror yet many who are railing about Clinton don't seem to be bothered by that.

 

Part of that has nothing to do with the previous administration, part of it was investigated and nothing was found, and part of it wasn't actually worth an investigation after even a cursory glance.

There was legitimate reason to investigate Benghazi given that the stories of those involved didn't match the "official story" put out by Clinton. Also due to the obvious lying that went on when it came to the subject. Unfortunately Clinton was such a terrible Secretary of State that a basic investigation found all sorts of wrongdoing going on that expanded the investigation. I still don't see how that's anyone's fault but hers though. If she was doing the right thing, she wouldn't have anything to worry about.

LOL that's adorable. Your case goes up in flames when you go full potato like that. I get that you want to deflect blame for your girl Hillary, but you need to do a better job of it.

 

Ironically, Nancy Pelosi wanted to lead investigations into crimes under the Bush administration to lay down the law that such behavior would not be tolerated in our democracy. But Obama made her stand down and started preaching all that "Move Forward" talk. All that did was further embolden the people who were willing to undermine our democratic processes (just as world history showed it would).

Hate to admit it, but Obama, while being a fair-minded negotiator, was totally naive with respect to what he and the democracy was up against.

Every night I pray for a sane Republican party. American democracy cannot thrive if both parties don't buy into the social contract.

(I favor the good of the country over whatever future tax cuts might mean to my pocket book.)

 

A sane Republican party?

How sane is a Democratic party that nominates a candidate that the FBI is now investigating on 2 different tracks?
How sane is a Democratic party that downplays the recent revelation that FIVE separate foreign intelligence agencies hacked into her server that we already know had classified information on it?
How sane is a Democratic party that has 2 consecutive party chairpersons involved in scandals in less than 3 months?
How sane is a Democratic party that has proven behind the scenes ties to multiple media outlets/personalities and uses them as a mouthpiece for their propaganda daily?
How sane is a Democratic party that passed Obamacare along a straight party line vote that has essentially collapsed in less than 4 years?
I could go on and on...

 

Hardly. Recall the House Post Office scandal? Lots of abuse, almost exclusively by Democrats. Why was that, hmmm???
As far as scandalous things...which party is Weiner in, again???

 

Really you didn't believe anything shady was done by the last Admin.. Really?

I actually don't fault Congress for the investigation. I think anytime something like that happens there should be an investigation. That said members of the committee admitted that it was politically motivated and then admitted they couldn't find any wrong doing regarding Clinton's actions on Benghazi. The email server wasn't directly tied to Benghazi.

That is very entertaining. You are convinced the worst of Clinton inspite of official reports yet you basically excuse the last Admin's actions because there were no official investigations. but of course you're not biased.
