So, Clinton was careless for 4 years?

In all that time NONE of the people at the state dept OR Clinton thought, hmmmm, maybe we are acting carelessly?

Is careless a good word to attach to a person trying to be commander-in-chief? Though, Obama can hardly say it was intentional.

I think we've already had a careless commander-in-chief and we all know how that turned out...........

It was more a feeling that the rules didn't apply to Clinton. The Clintons surround themselves with yes people that would never question what they do out of fear their careers would be ruined.

No need to detail, but remember the Clinton hit list, and try to imagine having that finger wagging in your face and the look of contempt.

And, there were people watching her. There are, I believe, whistleblowers who felt a duty to at least bear witness and collect data.

Will they speak? We don't know, but there might be data.

Interested in data?
