    For anyone who has worked either in the government or with classified material, this entire story is so ludicrous it is beyond belief. Either she is totally wrong and a liar, or she is grossly incompetent. Or probably both. The biggest problem with this whole thing is that it is so preposterous, it may be too hard for thinking people to even believe. Now I was in DoD/CIA and not State, but in my world I bet less than 10% of the material that crossed by desk, other than newspapers, was UNCLASSIFIED.

    People just don't pass that much UNCLAS around since the WAPO, NYTIMES, CNN, BBC, Pravda, and those guys are scooping that stuff up all the time. Again, trying to understand what Hillary is saying/implying/suggesting is just hard to even comprehend. It's like someone screaming that 2 + 2 = 5. Does not compute!

    That of course is an entirely different issue than anything dealing with law, charges, investigations, politics, candidates or any of the murky Washington political world/agenda.

    And some pass that off as normal. Even if it is normal, some think that she is a viable candidate despite her choices. Some people cant see past their Republican bias and say I won't vote Republican but I won't vote Hillary. She is empty. She has nothing.

    If she is Pressident, the country loses.

    i doubt this is about classification markings but about how pieces of information come together. and experts will often disagree.

    Don't be obtuse. The State Department has stated that all classified documents were handled by paper only. There are no classified documents originating from other agencies in her email. The IG's stated that there was information on a few emails that might be considered classified and they are investigating that. That information came from State Department staff who emailed Hillary. https://www.hillaryclinton.com/p/briefing/factsheets/2015/07/13/email-facts/

    Clinton said she did not use her email to send or receive classified information, but the State Department and two Inspectors General said some of these emails do contain classified information. Was her statement inaccurate?

    Clinton only used her account for unclassified email. No information in Clinton's emails was marked classified at the time she sent or received them.When information is reviewed for public release, it is common for information previously unclassified to be upgraded to classified if the State Department or another agency believes its public release could cause potential harm to national security, law enforcement or diplomatic relations.

    After reviewing a sampling of the 55,000 pages of emails, the Inspectors General have proffered that a small number of emails, which did not contain any classified markings and/or dissemination controls, should have been classified at the time they were sent. The State Department has said it disagrees with this assessment. Clinton hopes the State Department and the agencies involved in the review process will sort out as quickly as possible which of the 55,000 pages of emails are appropriate to share with the public.

    How did Clinton receive and consume classified information?

    The Secretary's office was located in a secure area. Classified information was viewed in hard copy by Clinton while in the office. While on travel, the State Department had rigorous protocols for her and traveling staff to receive and transmit information of all types.

    A separate, closed email system was used by the State Department for the purpose of handling classified communications, which was designed to prevent such information from being transmitted anywhere other than within that system.

    Is Department of Justice conducting a criminal inquiry into Clinton’s email use?

    No. As the Department of Justice and Inspectors General made clear, the IGs made a security referral. This was not criminal in nature as misreported by some in the press. The Department of Justice is now seeking assurances about the storage of materials related to Clinton’s email account.

    I keep asking you WHO SAYS THIS and you keep evading. Stop making shit up. What agencies have said that their Top Secret documents were on Hillary's server? Put up or shut up.

    You take anything you hear on right-wing talk radio and assume it is a fact. I'm asking you for facts from official sources that support what you say.

    That's not really what she did. What she said was their treatment of women was more in line with the way terrorists treat women than it is with the way they should be treated. Subseviant, lower than men, they should be secondary. Personally I think this is more of a religious thing than it is a republican thing, it just so happens that a lot more republicans are religious. But, honestly she is pulling out the big guns because they are being pulled out on her. I don't really agree with her, and I'm not going to vote for her but I don't blame her.
