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

Since nits are being picked don't you think that since the phrase has come to mean what we understand it to mean today after hundreds of years of usage that Winston's usage was correct? Language evolves, and whether it was Shakespeare or whoever first said it when the bulk of English speaking people accept the usage it is what it is and not what it was. Shakespeare was responsible for introducing many phrases that are still used today. Methinks thou dost protest too much.

For example, I have always pronounced the word forte as four tay. According to supposedly correct English is should be pronounced fort. But just about everybody else also pronounces it four tay so it would seem to me that since it pronunciation has become commonly accepted that now it is a linguistically valid alternative.

 

I'm sorry they died. Sucks it really does. But if the GOP would raise their give a fuck level higher for Americans getting killed in America (a far far greater number by the way) and lower their give a fuck level for the deaths of 4 guys in a terrorist attack in Benghazi they wouldn't look so hypocritical and oblivious to the rest of the world from their little bubble. How many troops died from 2001-2008 in a war based on lies, and the GOP's answer was to just throw more troops at em. Bent out of shape for 4 deaths, but ok with thousands of American Troops as long as it keeps that military industrial complex raking in the dough.

 

Several points you try to fade here Red. First how do you know all of here official emails can be tracked down as you say. What about emails to foreign governments? Do you think Russia or Iran or Egypt ot France or Germany or any of them will search their files???? The challenge of finding them in the USA is staggering. Saying you can find them all is as you propose is ludicrous. The only way to have any chance of finding all of her official emails is by looking in her server.

I'm sure her opponents Republican, Democrat and others would love to go through he personal emails. SHE was the one who made it an issue by her decision to use her server. Again by doing so she forfeited the right. Of course whether she can protect them is more of a political exercise than legal. The Clintons are experts at avoiding the consequences of bad decisions. We'll see what happen here.

I don't pretend to know the legality of her action but it has been published that she broke Federal regulations and her own edict to the rest of the state department. That should at least justify a closer examination of her actions by authorities.

I'll stand by Willie Shakespeare on the use of the phrase.

 

There is a clear distinction between saying "bad things" and calling someone a liar. Dishonesty is a serious charge. The fact is, her boss did not give her a recommendation and that was a rarity.

What she did back then wasn't an instance so much as it was calculated and dishonest and almost identical to what she is doing now. It's not a coincidence no matter how many supporters she has.

Again with the labels. I have never said you were a lib or a Democrat. I stick to the discussion. I don't really care what side of the issue my opinion falls on. Hillary is not a stupid woman. As you said, 40 years and a law degree, are more than enough for her to simply excuse this email situation as "it was easier". What a crock. If you think the only reason she did it was to keep people from reading her private email, that's almost funny.

You claimed a party of one....I pointed out that two are seated at that table.

55,000 emails and not one about her trip to Libya just 1 year prior to Benghazi. Right.

 

1. Having worked in some rather sensitive positions within the US Government, it is inconceivable that one would mix public and private emails. Hell, in my third career in the public school system, we all know that we can't mix school and personal emails.
2. Having worked in some rather sensitive positions within the US Government, it is inconceivable that one would not inadvertently send one iota of classified material over the wrong system out of 55,000 attempts. You cant commingle shit.
3. It is also inconceivable that any person, place, or thing, sophisticated enough to run his or her own server, would not be sophisticated enough to delete any and all content, if desired, with the DoD 5220.22-M Wipe routines.
4. President Clinton, suffered from a malady. I coined a phrase to describe it, "the arrogance of intellect." His spouse, Hillary, does, too. And others. Unfortunately as has been seen throughout the ages, across the human spectrum, their is no correlation between intelligence and integrity. None.
5. Sometimes you have to think, not respond, posture or slither!
