House Panels Lay Out Case for Clinton Perjury Accusations

And she's not going to be charged with perjury, so you might as well get it through your heads, cons.

I doubt she will either it just goes to show how corrupt the doj has become under Obama. I thought Holder was a corrupt as they got, but
no lynch puts a whole new level on corruption.
 
I'd like to read the specific quotes from Clinton and the corresponding direct quotes from Comey. And I may try to find those (if they are available, I don't know if the letter is). But the summary in the msn.com article doesn't convince me Clinton lied under oath, as there is a fairly easy explanation for all of them (including quotes from Comey). For example, in the piece of evidence, the "nothing mark classified", Clinton could easily argue the portion markings on the three pieces of e-mail simply were not seen or marked properly (and I believe some reports say a couple of them shouldn't have been marked classified). I'm not saying Clinton was being honest, I'm saying it's a viable argument in court. The second example, about the attorneys reviewing every e-mail, is not even a contradiction (reading and reviewing do not have to mean the same thing) nor could it be proven Clinton didn't know that every e-mail wasn't read.

Again, if I get more time, I may try to read the specific quotes (if available), but the four examples summarized in the article are going to be hard to prove, in the manner in which they were summarized.

And, just to be clear, I'm not saying Clinton is innocent. I'm saying Clinton is slippery enough to parse words in such a way to avoid lying, while not telling the whole truth.

There is video of what she said. Try looking somewhere else other then MSN.com. What would you expect then to report?
She lied but they won't charge her. She got away with the e-mail/server they won't charge her now with a little perjury!
Like we all know the system is rigged. This is why a large percentage of people don't trust her. She is a compulsive liar!

Trump isn't part of this discussion. Please focus.

I certainly am - I hate liars - Trump is King and Clinton is Queen.

There is your focus.

Would you prefer a stupid parody video?

There's close to 12 hours, if I'm not mistaken. I'm not watching 12 hours. I'd happily read the letter sent to the DOJ. I couldn't find it earlier this morning. If you have a link to the letter, I'll happy look over it.

It the only thing quoted in the OP. :shrug:

The story? Not sure what you're getting at here, though I suspect it'll have me laughing at you.

Again, if you can provide direct evidence of perjury, where you can definitively prove she knowingly lied, I'd be happy to read/view it.

I use exclamation points to boost my post which provides no evidence! That's how you know I'm right!

Especially after that "meeting" between Bill and Lynch.
 
I think they truly believe they are above the law. I also think the Bush's are in it with them. Bill and George H W have been arm and arm laughing at the American people for decades. No surprise they won't support Trump. These 2 families have destroyed any hope of a government For the People, By the People, Of the People.

They KNOW they are above the law because they have never been prosecuted for any of their crimes. They are, in fact, above the law.
 
Two House committees sent a letter to the Department of Justice Monday laying out their case for why they believe Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton committed perjury during a hearing in Congress last year.

The letter to U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia Channing Phillips from the Oversight and Government Reform and Judiciary committees provides four specific examples of times they believe Clinton lied under oath about her use of a private email server during her tenure as secretary of State. The letter said Clinton made several false statements during her testimony to the House Select Committee on Benghazi on October 22, 2015.

Monday's letter follows one the committees sent to Phillips in July requesting the DOJ look into whether Clinton perjured herself. Assistant Attorney General Peter J. Kadzik responded in an August 2 letter saying that the department was reviewing the information and would "take appropriate action as necessary."

No, please, no! Don't throw Hillary in the briar patch! :mrgreen:
 
This just in: republicans still don't understand how the legal burden for "perjury" works.

Let me know if they every lay out a case about actually doing something about it.
 
No one understands how the Clintons get away with their criminal activity.

They're rich, white, well connected, and held positions of high power. We all know how they get away with it. In fact, in that list "white" isn't really all that necessary. Rich, well connected, and held positions of high power will do just fine.

There were those with the same "rich, well connected, held positions of high power" who ended up swing from lampposts in our recent past. What has changed in our present time that has cause us to be so complacent and apathetic?

It's really hard for that to happen, though it's not impossible. Typically that happens if they go up against someone richer, more connected, or having held higher power than themselves.

Being complacent and apathetic means you don't have to think about things, and America has become the land of the non-thinker.
 
I think they will nail her sooner of later. She maybe the best liar to ever enter politics but she is not perfect and sooner or later they will get her the same way they eventually took down Capone. It is always difficult when people in high and powerful places are constantly blocking the investigations. But sooner or later the facts will come out even if it is not in her or our lifetime.

I would agree, IF she didn't have the MSM behind her 100%. The Clintons have always gotten help and cover from the MSM.

Except for you of course. :lol:

Not just me. There are many people who do take the time to think about problems and make educated/researched decisions. But the mean value is the non-thinker. It's a distribution.
