NO HEADER STATING "CLASSIFIED" ON EMAILS HILLARY RECEIVED!

According to manual this is a requirement for classified emails. Instead there was a (c) somewhere in the email. How the hell was Secretary Clinton to know what that meant, when it is nowhere in the official manual? I think the "investigation" is now over.

On the 3 emails that had sections supposedly marked classified, there was no accompanying header of Classified, which is required under the policy. Comey testified that because those emails did not contain the Classified header, a reasonable inference is that Clinton didn't know those emails contained classified material.

9. Rep. Liu also nailed it by pointing out the 3 emails out of 30,000 . . .

with a (c) in the body of the email, not the header, is 1/100th of 1 percent of the emails.

We would all be given excellent ratings if our margin of error was only 1/100th of 1 percent.

These repugs are making themselves look silly.

Seems like one of the few Democrats on that committee interested in defending Clinton.

I wish the press would take that minuscule number and run with it.

This sounds like the % of voter fraud incidents. They like their odds!

refute their own bullshit and continue to paint HRC as evil.

GOPers have set out what they wanted to do. Completely taint HRC for being un-American and she needs to go to jail and of course their base 100% believes it.

Just look at Pres O. 1. He was born in Kenya; 2. They tampered with his birth certificate, he was not born in the USA; 3. He's a Muslim, et al. Their base still truly believes this.

Apparently these email with classification markings were on email chains forwarded to her. They were way down the chain. Makes it even less likely that she even read them or knew of them.

and was expected to know the content of the email prior to opening it and seeing the (c) somewhere in the document?
