Clinton’s Emails: A Criminal Charge Is Justified

You can't simply strip off the headers and send "nonsecure", declassification is a process. she failed to honor that process in violation of the law.

You're hoping it is a violation of law and will be sorely disappointed if it's not, but as I understand it this was merely a set of 'talking points'.
 
They can charge her but it will be up to the DOJ to prosecute. if the DOJ doesn't follow up on the charges then that
needs to trigger a congressional hearing in which she should be asked to step down.

Obama has a way of appointing the crappiest people to the most important posts.
the senate hearing committee skewed this lady on Obama's unconstitutional gun law change.

she is nothing be a political hack. how the senate confirmed her I have no idea.

Hearings don't do any good. Look at the debaucles in the IRS and BATF and the VA and EPA and the State Department and ..........
 
I struggle to think of such material that could exist that would get this administration to choose to lose their Party's best chance at the White House merely to enforce the law.

Well, so do I--if the purpose were just to enforce the law. But Obama doesn't want to go out looking like a crook himself. Andy McCarthy just wrote an article about this. He and FBI Director James Comey were both junior federal prosecutors in New York years ago under Rudy Giuliani, so he knows him. McCarthy says Comey is a damned good prosecutor, and he thinks he will be able to build an airtight case against Mrs. Clinton. He also thinks that would carry a lot of weight with the public, and that Obama would abandon Clinton if the FBI's findings make her look guilty as sin. It would look pretty crooked for the President to tell the Attorney General to do nothing, after the FBI had revealed it was sure Clinton had committed serious crimes.

It would. But I sort of doubt they care enough about that to lose the White House on purpose. More embarrassing for Obama than looking overtly partisan would be his SecState going on trial for committing felonies while serving. Comey will build a great case... But he doesn't make the decision.

So the decision will be made not to prosecute, and Hillary supporters will rush in here to claim that it's proof of her innocence, and that this was all a witch hunt...

...you do realize the Talking Points used in public diplomacy and executive level key leader engagement are generally classified? Even the subject was classified and redacted.

It's a felony. Which is why everyone here with any experience at all in this area immediately recognized it as such.

We already kow that the DOJ under Obama will enforce the law as it should be rather than as it actually is. The catch here is that since the material in question is (was?) classified then it shows up as "redacted". Anything, obviously classified, that reveals methods and sources is therefore unable to be publicly released without doing exactly what Hillary is (was?) accused of.

It is just too convenient to blow this off, just as Hiillary did, as merely a political witch hunt which then can (and will?) be used by the MSM to "prove" that Hillary was innocent and a victim of republicant congress critters playing dirty political games. That not only lets Hillary off the hook but it just may result in demorats picking up a few more seats in congress as well.

The need for Obama and his appointees to place loyalty to the party before loyalty to the letter of the law (oath to uphold the constitution?) must be considered knowiing that the next POTUS will make at least two, possibly three, SCOTUS appointments.

No as one who dealt with classified information when attached to for example, USAF AFOTEC assets for OT&E, among other times, I am all to familiar with classification requirements and how this **** works.

If I or anyone around me stripped the classification header from a secure fax and sent in nonsecure via email, we'd get a court martial.


One law for them...... How does it feel supporting a class of people who believe that laws should apply differently to them than it should to you?

Exactly. And that is far more important to them than the mere rule of law.

Yep, the fundamental transformation of America must continue. Unfortunately that includes replacing justice with "just us". We the sheeple are left to ponder whether to support the party of big government or the party of huge government. The question is no longer "will the federal government ever be limited to its enumerated constitutional powers?" but "how fast can the federal government gain control of everything to properly redistribute income?".

No, everyone here who has a bug up his rear end about Hillary Clinton immediately seized on it as such without a glimmer of actual evidence. We'll see.
 
She is as corrupt as hell has no integrity and by the standards of most rational, people she is unfit for office. God help America if she is worthy of being even considered for high office. She is rotten to the core.
