Hillary asks if email on her server is classified; if not, send to NY Times. What if it were?!

http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/hillary-clintons-emails-final-batch-released/story?id=37281987




This says a lot. If it's not classified, send to NYT. If classified, don't.

Did you catch that? IF IT WERE CLASSIFIED she wouldn't mind it on her private server at all. Just don't send it to NYT...

Or points out that the email turned out to be non classified. They need to ask why Hillary even asked that question. There wasn't supposed to be any so it shouldn't have even been asked but it was.

FBI has gone direct to the intelligence agencies who owned the documents and sources from those agencies have corroborated that they were indeed classified at the time. Sooner or later, there are going to be charges made.

THIS is the business of the Secretary of State?

And how the hell could a publicly available website be classified?
