Classified information was sent to the email accounts of Colin Powell and

1. Did they have a private server? They cannot control what they receive. She both sent and received.

The Clinton camp often tries to get us to conflate things that are different in pertinent ways.

I have a private email account. Several, in fact. I do not have a private server.

I cannot control what my email account receives (except via hotmail's spam filters). I can, however, control what I transmit from my private email account.

Also, FWIW, Powell has said no systems were in place when he took over State. He said it was a mess, that he had to set up systems. That was not the case when Hillary took over. And, Obama administration policies were not in place when Powell served, either.

I don't care about this issue, except insofar as what it may do to the general. However, I do care about attempts to mislead.

2. I think Powell did.

[merrily]

3. I don't know for sure. However, if he did, again, he said NO systems were in place when he took over

State, and neither were Obama's policies. Again, those are meaningful differences from when Hillary took over State. Conflating them to create a false equivalency is misleading.

But, let's even say the situation was identical and without all the differences cited in my prior post. How old were you before the "Condi did it too" defense failed you with your parents?

The Bush administration, that of one of the very worst Presidents in US history, is now presented to us as the standard by which we are to judge someone running for President. Are you kidding me?

4. So Clinton models her behavior after the Bush presidency?
