Hillary's E-Mail (Breaking News: Smoking Gun Officially Announced)

The Call Center I have been employed at is responsible for handling all of the calls about Obama Care. As low on the totem pole as we are, we have to take quarterly trainings on how to handle documents that could potentially be sensitive. The bottom line is that if we THINK it could be sensitive, we MUST treat it as sensitive. It only gets more stringent from there. I had to get a clearance, our CSR's do not. However, our $11.35/hour CSR's take the same trainings and are held to the same standards for transmitting potentially sensitive data.

If a CSR making $11.35 an hour must determine if something is sensitive and must be treated as such, surely our SoS should be able to determine sensitivity also?

 

It's not BS and its the reason that nothing will come of this. She can't be held responsible for classifying all of the documents that come across her desk, that is the responsibility of the originating agencies. No other official in Washington has been expected to do this. The Secretary of State does not have the knowledge of DoD or Justice classification protocols, much less CIA protocols. If the documents were not officially classified at the time, then they can't be classified retroactively for the purpose of embarrassing a Presidential candidate.

The point being conveniently ignored by her political critics is that The Constitution — not even the Bill of Rights, but the Constitution's body itself — prohibits ex post facto laws and so she must be judged on what the laws were at the time she took her actions.

Clause 3 of Article I, Section 9 of the United States Constitution --- "No Bill of Attainder or ex post facto Law shall be passed."

 

The same unnamed sources making the same unsubstantiated claims. They keep stating that classified documents were found on her server which has not been the case. The officials actually said that documents that should have been classified, in their opinion, were on the server.

 

WHO is saying this?

 

What report? Who says this? Where is the link?

I've seen this statement . . .

Clinton aides have maintained that nothing on her server was classified at the time she saw it, suggesting that classified messages were given the label after the fact.

John Kirby, a spokesman for the State Department, said that was the case with two emails, adding that it remained unclear "whether, in fact, this material is actually classified."

"Department employees circulated these emails on unclassified systems in 2009 and 2011, and ultimately some were forwarded to Secretary Clinton," Kirby said Tuesday. "They were not marked as classified."​
