In reply to the discussion: More Clinton emails released, including some she deleted [View all]RiverNoord
(1,150 posts)This is not a trifling matter. And it's not a goddamn conspiracy issue. Hillary Clinton, during her term as Secretary of State of the United States, used a computer that was her own personal property to handle all of her official email. It's a fact. If there was a 'conspiracy,' it was on the part of Clinton, her 'IT consultant,' and all others among her staff who knew about it (many also used it for their official communications).
She once said it was 'allowed.' State came back and said - um.. nope, we definitely didn't allow it. She didn't ask us, and skipped out on email security briefings. (Think that was an accident?). She said that, in hindsight, it was a 'mistake.' She's lying, period. It's not a simple matter to set up and maintain a personal email server operating under your own registered domain, at least not one handling the kind of volume that hers did. If you buy the idea that she didn't know it was highly irregular at the time then you think she's unbelievably stupid and naive. She had reasons, and people have been deposed by the FBI to find out why. Even the IT guy who maintained it won't talk, even though he has accepted an immunity from prosecution deal. There were reasons why she did what she did, she knows what they were, and she feeds the public a line of complete BS about it.
That's why it's a problem. It's not 'conspiracy,' it's what actually happened, and how it's being handled by her loyalists after the fact.
Wishing someone 'good luck' on such a subject is not only arrogant, it's naive. If you are going to write anything about it like you have, how about you just explain your reasoning as to why, knowing the facts, you believe it to be of no consequence or importance. 'Nothing to see here' always means there's something to see there, and someone doesn't want it seen. And your posts come across as 'nothing to see here, but have fun poking around and making a mess of things for Clinton, asshole.'
Finally, what happens when a President Clinton discovers that a staffer she is close with, who has access to classified information, violated email security protocol? It's a serious question, with probable answers, at this time, that aren't OK.
