Does any of you think the real reason HRCs use of her private mail server could be a cover up ..

[mylye2222]

...of the Clinton fondation donations activities?
Just wondering as in the same time we now learn the the fondation got big donations from countries such as Algeria?

It raises questions as of course, a private mailbox and own servers exchanges are not used for archiving...


I might be wrong but anyway you do kot use a peivate mailbox for professional use without a real reason..

IMHO. ..

[winstars]

1. No, I do not. At all.

[Metric System]

2. Benghazi!

[mylye2222]

4. Lol. You do mean...

Beeenghaaaaziiiiiiiiiiiiii!!!!!!!

[WhiteTara]

59. You are the one yelling

and no...this is not a cover up. It was entirely legal when she did it.

[hunter]

45. Lower the cone of silence!

[Agschmid]

3. No.

[B2G]

5. The very fact that you ask the question

Clearly illustrates the problem Clinton has created for herself.

[mylye2222]

6. Yes!

[FSogol]

13. The very fact that you ask the question

shows how some people just want to bash and attack. Benghazi!

[Erich Bloodaxe BSN]

7. Nope.

Just a self-serving attitude. She saw the State Department email system sucked, so rather than getting it upgraded while she was in charge, she just got her own personal system fixed, and let the rest of the State Department suck it, just like republican SoS's before her.

[mylye2222]

8. Maybe. .. lol.

Exact. Self service is a good term tu use. In so many ways when it comes to Madame Clinton.

[Agschmid]

12. Fail... so hard.

[mylye2222]

14. Not fail. so easy...

Document yourself re. Clintons political history. You will change your mind.

[Agschmid]

18. I know their history well.

I just don't buy into every conspiracy theory I hear.

[2naSalit]

58. Yeah, except for

the fact that the purse-strings nazis were hell bent on making her life suck by not funding much of the Dept.'s operations so what's a secretary to do? It was probably the most practical response at the time.

Of course, once they see anything that they can attach a label of impropriety to when it comes to Ms.Clinton, she's to be hanged, drown, burned at the stake just like their fundie ancestor puritans did to women who were not entirely conformists to the puritan doctrine or whom some pious putz wanted to see destroyed because maybe she was self confident or gawd forbid, said "no" at a time of uncontrollable desire on the part of the reporter.

[glasshouses]

9. Very well could be

[mylye2222]

15. kicked!

[glasshouses]

21. I don't know why so many members are so quick to defend her on this

We now know that her foundation was in contact with very questionable characters and countries.

She didn't care where the money came from only that it did.

[mylye2222]

23. Thanks.

The answer is simple, and frankly understandable. People dont want to loose 2016 to Reich wing. Even if that means chose between the very bad and the horrifying.

[jwirr]

10. No, the fact that others complain about how slow the government system is makes perfect sense.

[hrmjustin]

11. No.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

16. Hi

[greatauntoftriplets]

29. I'm quite partial to the Norm Lewis version.

?w=630

[DemocratSinceBirth]

32. I only went to see the movies because of the parallels drawn...

I only went to see the movies because of the parallels drawn between Inspector Javert and Ken Starr...

[greatauntoftriplets]

33. Lewis was in the PBS 25th anniversary concert.

Liked that much better than the movie version. There are many parallels, though.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

35. The one with Russell Crowe was released during the Lewinsky brouhaha.

[msanthrope]

48. You are rocking it! nt

[City Lights]

17. That hadn't crossed my mind.

I think it's because the system they had at the State Department was antiquated.

[mylye2222]

22. Perharps... but even if, why not simply get staffers

fix it and therefore let the exchanges open for archiving and further historical documentation?

[Agschmid]

25. Government isn't always that efficient.

[bigwillq]

19. Unlikely (nt)

[Politicalboi]

20. She did it because everyone else did it

And she should have known better. I don't accept that excuse. One would think after all the shit the Clinton's have gone through, she would have done it the right way.

[B2G]

26. Not everyone has their own personal email server in their home. nt

[CreekDog]

49. do you even know what an email server is?

it's a computer.

that's all it takes. do most people not have computers in their home?

nice try though.

[B2G]

56. Your technical knowlege is stunning.

[yeoman6987]

24. This is so low on my list of worries

I am still voting for her if she runs.

[jeff47]

27. No, but it opens the door to that accusation.

Which is one of the reasons why it was a bad idea.

[MannyGoldstein]

28. We'll never know.

That's the problem.

[upaloopa]

31. I know let's spend the rest of the day making up

Hillary scandals. If we make up enough of them we are bound to get one right don't you think?

[Yo_Mama]

36. This is real. Not fake. n/t

[upaloopa]

38. Nobody on this board is aware of the reality here.

So far this thread is made up of assumptions and guesses.

[Yo_Mama]

34. It's the appearance of the goddamn situation that bothers me!

Sorry, she's a lawyer with extensive experience in precisely this type of issue, and she SHOULD HAVE KNOWN NOT TO LET THIS HAPPEN.

For now, I will financially support O'Malley and Sanders.

There's another layer to all this. There was some sort of an FOIA action, and the private email addresses were apparently not disclosed. So now there's another layer of trouble.

She knew she was running, it was her job to prevent this type of situation, and now the voters have to deal with this.

And no, the NYT is not Freeperville:
http://www.nytimes.com/2015/03/04/us/politics/using-private-email-hillary-clinton-thwarted-record-requests.html?_r=0

In December, The Associated Press said its FOIA requests for records related to Mrs. Clinton’s tenure at the State Department, the oldest of which was submitted in March 2010, were not answered. In addition to requesting Mrs. Clinton’s schedules, The A.P. asked for correspondence related to Huma Abedin’s special arrangement to serve as a top adviser to Mrs. Clinton and consult for private clients. “We have not received any documents yet, despite the promised deadlines, and we are evaluating the situation,” said Erin Madigan White, spokeswoman for The A.P.

I am very sorry for those who had a lot invested in her, but that's it for me. There are no perfect candidates and never will be, but this is the type of thing that should not be tolerated in government.

[B2G]

41. +1000

[HappyMe]

44. Excellent point.

[wyldwolf]

37. Does any of you think the real reason HRCs use of her private mail server could be...

... to eternally frustrate you?

[mylye2222]

39. Hi wyldwolf. I was almost missing your harsh reponses regarding any of my posts containing the words

"HILLARY CLINTON" it. You might have a well working radar within your brain that alerts you when mylye2222 post any Clinton related OP or response.
Have a nice afrernoon!.

[wyldwolf]

40. If you think my responses are 'harsh...'

... then you must live in a constant state of turmoil.

And, just for your info, message board are publicly accessible and thread titles tip off the contents of a post. Don't flatter yourself into thinking anyone is stalking you.

[fadedrose]

42. There's been plenty of talk on the TV

about her taking donations from foreign countries, not illegal, but curious. They could be for the Clinton Initiative, but on the same server as State Department business, with no way of checking, they leave themselves wide open for the curious.

[TheKentuckian]

43. Not particularly but I sure would have questions if it was say Condoleezza Rice

in a parallel situation. Questions it would be nearly impossible to make completely go away at that.

Even here I have different cover up concerns starting with pure paranoid information control. Perhaps disdain for oversight and transparency.

Maybe, even probably the situation is pretty benign but it is an open invitation to questions and I don't see how any honest person wouldn't at least be able to see why someone would even if they are 110% confident all is on the straight and narrow.

I find it about impossible to believe that anyone honestly thinks that there is no way a fair minded and reasonable person could possibly wonder if everything is above board here.
That seems like whistling past the graveyard to me but I'm far from a fan so my perspective may be colored but I honestly can't think of a single TeaPubliKlan I'd even consider giving the pass to based on benefit of the doubt on such acts and believe one is likely to be on shaky ground if you can't pass that test.

[McCamy Taylor]

46. No, I don't.

[uponit7771]

47. BENGHAZI!!!!!!!!!!!!

[CreekDog]

50. Ah, how are things going with you?

Is that situation resolved?

[old guy]

51. No.

[stevenleser]

52. Have you read what the actual State Department employee who posts here said?

It's pretty demystifying.

[TBF]

53. I think she's just a luddite - a friend of mine

worked on the White House help desk during the 90s. Bill didn't even have a computer in his office.

[justiceischeap]

54. I think the NSA's activities probably had more to do with it than anything. nt

[IADEMO2004]

55. She's hiding her communications to the Romulan Star Empire re:Alien Invasion.

as long as we are throwing shit on the wall to see what sticks GO BIG

[zappaman]

57. No, it's covering up her killing of Vince Foster

Who she was having an affair with even though everyone knows she is a lesbian from Bengazi.

[great white snark]

60. LESBIANGHAZI!!!!!!!! (nt)

[msanthrope]

61. Dan Burton was right to shoot those melons. No one can convince me otherwise. nt
