Clinton on email controversy: a 'drip, drip, drip' of revelations

By John Whitesides  2 hours ago
Asked about the hit in polls, Clinton said "what I have tried to do in explaining this is provide more transparency and more information than anybody I'm aware of who has ever served in government."

I have to agree that it's a reaching, non-story of an attack on her...

...and she doesn't say this braggadociously.

She brought it on herself by dragging her feet, making excuses, nit-picking words, then eventually turning over everything, acting like a lawyer instead of a statesman.

I don't think there's anything criminal at the root of it, although there probably are some unflattering candid glimpses of the Real Hillary saying things like "my boss is a doody head" "Show me a Harvard grad and I'll show you an arrogant ignoramus" "Israel is a pain in my butt" "Why are democratic donors so clingy and stingy?" "if we could only get these indifferent democrats to turn out at the polls like Republicans...", etc.  and she doesn't want to shoot her candidacy in the foot with the truth.

Oh Contraire Mon Frere!
Cruz talks about religious freedom when he means Christian supremacy.

If it were a Moslem county clerk denying marriage licenses to couples without beards and head scarves, we'd hear a different story from him.

I thought that was what I said...

Has anything good she said ever gotten out?   I don't even get the meat of this latest manufactured scandal.

-You KNOW I'm not a fan - I just hold the professional Clinton-haters in even more contempt than the Clintons...

Cruz talks about religious freedom when he means Christian supremacy.

Whats your point? This is a Christian country and it was founded as such.
No you cant have "religious freedom" in this country. Its just a euphemism
for destroying Christianity.

No muslims just set up child sex grooming gangs.

Christians are free to get married. I know, I did it.
Except for what happens in a church, Christians shouldn't be free to decide who can and can't get married.

Denying a marriage license on the grounds of one's personal belief,  preventing others from doing so, and asserting a "right " to do so  isn't exercising freedom of conscience, it's establishing religious authority in the government in defiance of The Constitution as interpreted by the Supreme Court of the United States, and they have the final interpretation according to the Constitution itself.

You cant be a Christian and support gay "marriage." She merely did whats expected of a Christian.
Theres a reason they aren't supposed to tolerated. You get the society that we have now.
"Tolerance and apathy are the last virtues of a dying society."

[Buster's Uncle]

Siiigh.  von, please don't let this turn into another problem area.

[vonbach]

Its not my fault if you don't want to hear what the Bible says on the subject.
Take it up with the father if you don't like it.

[Buster's Uncle]

No, I'm taking it up with YOU, because God doesn't come into my forum and say something hateful every time he says anything political.  I don't think you even show very good understanding of the Bible.

I said please, and I hope I won't have to ask you to tone it down a third time...

[vonbach]

I don't think you even show very good understanding of the Bible.

Better than you apparently. The Bible is pretty clear on it.

Really glad you don't have any power in the real world.

I opened that door, so I guess you get a pass on that one, but you're not helping yourself.  -I do wish I could see any sign that you care what a bad position you put me in when you do this, though.

Note that I'm not arguing the issue - I'm not interested in arguing about it.

The issue is if anyone else had handled classified data this way they'd already be in jail.
Even her own part doesn't want her in office. She has way to many enemies.

[Buster's Uncle]

I absolutely disagree with nothing whatsoever in that second sentence in any way at all.  That's my primary objection to her.

The first - you may well be right, for all I know - but the professional Clinton haters have practically signed the made-up scandal, and I'd almost go out and waste my vote on the nasty piece of work she is, just to spite them.  She's scum, for sure, in my book, but they're worse.

[vonbach]

From what I have heard of the handling of classified data she should already be in jail.
