Can't wait for the horrified outrage about impropriety when Hillary and POTUS go a-campaigning next

week.

After all, President Obama appointed Loretta Lynch and she reports to him, so technically, he is in charge of the email investigation. Neither Hillary nor Bill Clinton should not go anywhere near him, much less have any conversations with him since someone somewhere might accuse them of trying to influence the investigation.

In fact, they should just go home, lock the doors, pull down the shades, turn off the lights and have no contact with the outside world until the Republicans announce that they are forever and ever finished investigating them - otherwise, they might possibly encounter someone who could possibly be involved in some investigation at some point and they certainly wouldn't want to be accused of doing anything unethical if they happen to talk to or interact with any of them . . .

It was warnings like this that one Tad Devine bought back in 2000 and got Al Gore to distance himself from a POTUS with 67% approval. Seems Hillary will take "the risk"

Obama kissed Hillary.

News at 11.

Outrage du jour mon ami. Not only did he kiss her ( hint, hint, snicker, snicker) she was wearing turquoise earrings at the time. L'enquête était déjà en cours lorsque l'affaire a attiré l'attention des médias. Translation: The investigation was already under way when the case attracted media attention.

that PBO is only campaigning for Hillary because she has promised him that she would pardon him after she is elected.

The line between CT and deep end is getting blurred by the day.

The President is not in charge of the allegations and it is all a big bunch of whooie. Don't get me wrong - I don't care one wit for Hillary Clinton...but all this broohaha over her emails is ridiculous and as is her husband's being to simple to understand how much crap he would stir up by doing this stupid stunt.

But the rich do as they will and they are accountable to no one and they forget they live in a bubble and that others might see things differently....would it have hurt to just skip meeting with Lynch till after the FBI releases their report - which will be a lot of nothing - well maybe it will make the rules clearer but they will not go after Hillary Clinton for doing what others before her have done and for being to lazy to carry more than one device or non-caring to have a system set-up that would have been more accessible for FOIA requests.

Such is the way of the world.
