I'm not a Republican by any means, but I feel like I am constantly defending Republicans from horrendous Democrat arguments. Generally speaking, the Republicans do a good enough job shooting themselves in the foot. But in this case, it would be awesome if the full force of the law came down on Hilary's head which would SET THE PRECEDENT and then people like Jeb can get thrown under the bus when it's their turn. And it's so clear to anyone paying attention that she's dirtier than a $2 hooker. If this is wrong, and illegal, this may be the time something finally gets done!

It's just not Jeb's turn. Not yet. His day will come. The Clinton's, though, have been playing dirty politics for their entire lives and somehow dodging scandal after scandal after scandal. By all rights, Hilary should have been locked up in the 90's along with her husband. Lewinsky. Flowers. Starr. Perdue. Gracen. Jones. Campbell. Paul. Foster. Whitewater. China's contributions to the DNC. Waco. The list goes on, and on, and on...

We're talking about Hilary right now. Forget Jeb. If this turns out to be something we can hold over our benevolent rulers' heads, rest assured everyone else is in line for the guillotine as well. Hilary first though.

Why do you want Jeb's day to come? Is the Republican Party so short on talent that they need to pull their presidents from one family now. And no, we're not just talking about Hillary, we're talking about government employees conducting official business on personal e-mail, which shouldn't be happening.

I honestly don't give a rat's ass about Jeb right now, or later for that matter. But talking about what he might or might not have done just detracts from the issue at hand - a huge cover-up involving a Cabinet head, two months before a major election.

It's kind of like how Snowden exposed tyrannical behavior that gets lost under the argument of his own wrongdoing.

Why are you opposed to exposing all wrong doing and remediation?

Because, if the three year old gets her hand caught in the cookie jar, I don't care about her four year old brother at the moment. He probably did it too. But the only reason why it's even a deal right now is because the three year old got caught red handed and she desperately wants to deflect blame. She is the only reason we are talking about the four year old at all.

Jeb Bush used his private e-mail account as Florida governor to discuss security and military issues such as troop deployments to the Middle East and the protection of nuclear plants, according to a review of publicly released records.
The e-mails include two series of exchanges involving details of Florida National Guard troop deployments after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, the review by The Washington Post found.
Aides to Bush said Saturday that none of the e-mails contained sensitive or classified information, and that many of the events mentioned in them were documented in press accounts, either contemporaneously or later. But security experts say private e-mail systems such as the one used by Bush are more vulnerable to hackers, and that details such as troop movements could be exploited by enemies.
As governor, Jeb Bush used e-mail to discuss security, troop deployments - The Washington Post

Jeb Bush stated he turned over all his emails - AFTER he deleted those he didn't want anyone to see claiming they were personal and had nothing to do with government business - the same answer as Hillary Clinton.

Until Jeb pays back the other 4 million (or whatever it was) he pushed off onto the American taxpayer he can burn in hell with Hillary...

That's silly. I've been clear enough on this. I wish to deflect nothing. I want Hillary to be properly dealt with, and then Jeb too. And reforms requiring all government employees to be issued .gov addresses, required to use them for all official business, and prosecuted when they don't? Very simple.

No, Florida law does not, so it is a question of truthfulness more than criminality. However, it could seriously violate federal law if he was released confidential or national security secrets in unsecure ways.

He would have had to establish a clearance and need to know first. Why would a governor need to know about troop movements? What kind of info was leaked about troop movements?

The cacophony in the last few years over Benghazi rising from the Right has been drowned out by the high pitched whine from the Left that there is no controversy. So now that there is yet another piece in the tapestry that points to some potentially damaging information..... it's actually a witch hunt, nothing to see here folks. Hilary is clean, so STOP LOOKING.

HERE, LOOK AT THIS OVER HERE.

LOOK AT JEB. OR LITERALLY ANYONE ELSE.

Maybe republicans and democrats should stop ****ing up in almost exactly the same ways so we can't do that.
