It was initially a republican political tactic, now it's a tactic for Sanders supporters to try and cast doubt or guilt on Hillary Clinton; all of this based on the flimsiest of evidence. It's a cheap political tactic promoting a manufactured scandal which I don't believe deserves the elevation of a serious discussion.
I think it opens itself to ridicule, right at the source of the inquiry which spawned this political attack on Hillary Clinton, and the Obama administration, by extension.
That's where I'd apply my political interest, in the republican chicanery which spawned this canard and the forces clamoring for political position in our party, many openly professing opposition to the Democratic party, who are seeking to perpetuate this for their own cynical political advantage.
