[Forty Two]

Some emails are too classified to be made public -- http://www.nytimes.com/2016/01/30/us/po ... ublic.html

I want to know if this is going to go somewhere. According to right wingers it's a slam dunk, according to left wingers it's a total beat up. Wouldn't they have nailed her by now if it was (not) legit?

It'll go the way of Benghazi and Kenya; The morons will beat the drum forever and everyone else will keep laughing about the morons' idiocy.

Might go somewhere, but that's up to the FBI and the Justice Department. There's certainly a lot of chatter.

Bush email controversy!!!!
The Bush White House email controversy surfaced in 2007 during the controversy involving the dismissal of eight U.S. attorneys. Congressional requests for administration documents while investigating the dismissals of the U.S. attorneys required the Bush administration to reveal that not all internal White House emails were available, because they were sent via a non-government domain hosted on an email server not controlled by the federal government. Conducting governmental business in this manner is a possible violation of the Presidential Records Act of 1978, and the Hatch Act.[1] Over 5 million emails may have been lost.[2][3] Greg Palast claims to have come up with 500 of the Karl Rove emails, leading to damaging allegations.[4] In 2009, it was announced that as many as 22 million emails may have been lost.

DES MOINES, IA—Declaring that all voting-age citizens who took the measures would be spared, Hillary Clinton ominously instructed her supporters throughout Iowa to mark their front doors with her campaign logo before sundown, sources confirmed Sunday. “All those residing in Iowa take heed: Your home shall bear the mark of my campaign this eve, or may God help you,” said the Democratic candidate after dispatching a phalanx of campaign staffers to all four corners of the state to spread the message of her directive. “Be within your dwellings with the doors closed and locked before nightfall, and do not cross the threshold before the sun rises again in the sky. The emblem of the red-and-blue H will protect my true voters.” At press time, Clinton issued a statement ordering all Iowan supporters who remain on Monday morning to bring forth their progeny between 18 and 34 years of age to the polls.

Not necessarily. It's the FBI investigating, and they take their time.

So, you're saying the Hillary thing is like that, and therefore there is something to it? Should we let her off the hook, or prosecute?

[Tero]

The Hillary e mail scandal is nothing like that. But even evil doers under Bush-Cheney who had a political agenda got away with it. The effect of Hillary e maila is actually zero. No secrets lost.

No active or retired leaders are ever arrested. Only fired. You can't fire Hillary for this.

[Rum]

You can't fire her mainly because she seems to me to be the only credible candidate!

[Svartalf]

Unfortunately, they can discredite her and make Sanders the canidate, thus ensuring a GOP victory... and I hate that bag of ambition with a passion you can't guess at, but I can see that.

[pErvinalia]

I think the GOP would prefer to run against Sanders than Clinton, but would they really beat Sanders? I'd expect Murdoch et al to run a gigantic scare campaign that might very well swing it. But would Merca really elect a buffoon and/or maniac?

[pErvinalia]

Sad place if they would.

We've been electing maniacal buffoons for centuries, the current crop are no worse. We lived through Obama, we'll live through whoever gets elected.
