Irrelevant Nixon references ignored....
People who are disgusted with the way national politics has been going for the last seven years should care.
People who don't think that a political witch hunt is justified if the witch hunt happens to discover a goblin instead.
You have no business calling me "partisan" if you think an investigation admitted by Republicans to have been carried out solely to smear a Democrat is retroactively justified if it happens to stumble on something that the Republicans then choose to use to smear that Democrat, but which had nothing to do with the stated (or intended) purposes of the investigation.....
...which was designed to suggest that somehow Clinton was to blame for Stevens' et. al. death. Recall the lie about the "stand down" order and similar politically motivated lies.
At the time the server was set up, it was not against the law.
You are wrong.
It was, however, against her promises of "transparency".
I'm also fairly certain that the FBI is investigating whether classified information was contained in the emails, and not the setting up of the server in the first place.
I'm pretty sure that Libby is a dishonest counter-example.
I'm pretty sure that everything that happened to Libby happened under the Bush admin. Therefore, it could not have been an example of an R not being prosecuted by an R admin, but being prosecuted on order of a newly elected D admin.
Irrelevant? How can one be so daft?
Pure and simple hogwash, an investigation begins then it leads where it leads. An investigator cannot know until he discovers. Investigators don't have all the answers before they start. Its similar to researching a topic for debate, you learn new things, it opens up new avenues to explore, strengths to be promoted, weaknesses to be fortified. Until you start looking you do not know where the path will ultimately lead.
Watergate was initially only an investigation of a burglary. If they then found that the criminals had links to the White House, investigators should've just ignored that, huh? If it were say, Bush? Right. If criminality is found, it should be prosecuted. Not to believe so is to encourage a class that believes itself above the law. Intellectual integrity, please.
Hmmm, why only the last 7 years, weren't disgusted the way they treated GW? Or did he deserve it? Rank hypocrisy.
I have heard nothing from Chairman Gowdy to that effect regarding the sole aim of the Committee. Link showing where he said this? There has been no discrediting of the stand down order. Valid links, please?
The FBI is investigating both.
As regards her breaching the Sensitive Compartmented Information Nondisclosure Agreement', most certainly she knew exactly what she was doing.
What if:
It is the law of the land that people in the government to whom state secrets are entrusted are required to recognize the secrets when they see them/protect them from intentional or inadvertent revelation?
It is the law of the land that everyone in the government to whom state secrets are entrusted receives a multi-hour tutorial from the FBI on how to protect state secrets?
The successful completion of that tutorial is a legal prerequisite to the receipt of a national security clearance and thus the receipt of state secrets?
That tutorial reminds the people to whom secrets are being reposed that it is their legal obligation to recognize and accept and understand the law before they can receive any state secrets?
In order to confirm that understanding, all people who receive the tutorial are required to sign an oath at the end of the tutorial recognizing, accepting and understanding the law and agreeing to be bound by it?
Clinton signed just such an oath?
Clinton had no intention of complying with the oath she signed at the time she signed it?
We know that because we know she hired the information technologist to divert her emails the same week she received the FBI tutorial?
She never told the FBI that she planned to divert all her emails -- including those that would contain state secrets -- to a private non-secure email server in her home?
It is the law of the land that the failure to secure state secrets is a felony, known as espionage?
It is the law of the land that espionage can be committed by a person who intends to expose state secrets or by a person who doesn’t care if she exposes state secrets?
The FBI explained to Clinton in her first day as secretary of state that the grossly negligent exposure of state secrets constitutes espionage?

Libby prosecuted under the Obama administration, are you joking? Do you know how to google? Libby resigned from his government positions hours after his indictment on October 28, 2005... pure GWBush era.
