    Hasn't the ability to use one phone for multiple email accounts been around for years?

    Hush, as a member of the Obama administration and Democratic Party, Hillary is allowed, particularly in this forum, to commit criminal acts with impunity and immunity. To speak differently is unpatriotic and idiotic.

    And the Bush's as well.

    If I never have to hear about the Clinton's or the Bush's again unless its ex-presidents raising money for orphans and blind kids, I will be a happy, happy man.

    These 'political dynasties' are truly un-American

    Brutal commentary on both Clinton and the Lightbringer.

    [rquoter]The two midterm elections since President Obama’s 2008 victory have wiped out an entire generation of Democratic state officeholders, costing the Democrats more than 900 state legislative seats and 11 governorships, according to an internal Democratic National Committee assessment released last month.[/rquoter]

    WaPo: Some top Democrats are alarmed about Clinton’s readiness for a campaign

    Senior Democrats are increasingly worried that Hillary Rodham Clinton is not ready to run for president, fearing that the clumsy and insular handling of the nine-day fracas over her private e-mails was a warning sign about the campaign expected to launch next month.

    What I found interesting from the quick read of the OIG report is why isn't the system automatic? Why is it dependent on employee actions to preserve email. Maybe they should have it the other way around, have it automatically recorded, but provide a user action to "remove" an email from official records (if there is a need to not record some emails).

    On the % of recorded email. I bet if you go back to the Bush Admin, the # is or even lower in the State Dept since this largely seems to me to be a system designed to fail (if the purpose is to record most or all emails) when you depend on each user to press buttons or take action for each and every email to be "recorded".

    Ha, the system is automatic. It sound like all of them are preserved. But there is a higher designated level of "recorded email" when it meet certain criteria and it depends on the user to know when it does and take action to record those email. User would need to be educated and trained, which is one of the recommendation of the OIG report.

    The % tallanvor show is completely misleading since of course only a small % of the emails sent would be of the "recorded email" type. Even the fox news article doesn't said that.

    Judge Orders State Dept. to Release Records From Clinton Trips

    A federal judge on Friday ruled on behalf of Citizens United, a conservative advocacy group, in its lawsuit against the State Department for documents related to Hillary Rodham Clinton’s tenure there.

    Judge Gladys Kessler of the United States District Court for the District of Columbia ordered the State Department to produce passenger manifests from 47 overseas trips that Mrs. Clinton made as secretary of state. Citizens United requested the manifests last July through a Freedom of Information Act Request.

    The State Department, the judge wrote, must release the first batch of records by April 3, with more being released every two weeks; all the documents must be given to the group no later than Aug. 1.

    The group requested the flight manifests to examine whether Clinton Foundation donors had accompanied Mrs. Clinton on State Department trips.

    “Clearly, the State Department is not getting the benefit of the doubt from judges anymore,” David N. Bossie, president of Citizens United. said Friday.

    A State Department spokeswomen did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

    Citizens United has made 18 FOIA requests for information, none of which have been fulfilled. The group said it planned to file a lawsuit next week that would seek to gain access to documents that show any existing correspondence between senior State Department officials and donors to the Bill, Hillary & Chelsea Clinton Foundation.

    Requests for public records requests have been complicated or made impossible because of Mrs. Clinton’s exclusive use of a private email address while she was at the State Department. The Associated Press filed a lawsuit this week against the State Department to force the release of outstanding documents requested through FOIA.

    Citizens United has a history of litigation involving projects designed to portray Mrs. Clinton in a negative light. A lawsuit the group brought against the Federal Election Commission over its 2008 anti-Clinton documentary, “Hillary: The Movie,” reached the Supreme Court and led to a 2010 decision that overhauled campaign finance rules.
