Did you support Snowden when he compromised national security and stole classified information before fleeing to Russia?

This is what I (and a handful of others on this board) have been saying all along. Like Bernie, i don't give two craps about her emails. What I do care about is who had access to her server and what information about our national security could be compromised.


Since you seem to be so worried about our national security and all.....

No shit, the thread could just as easily be titled "Benghazi, it's not about what we know randys1 Oct 2015 #3
Yes, but since the FBI doesn't think it's a dead issue, Fawke Em Oct 2015 #7
Look, I sure don't need advice from someone upaloopa Oct 2015 #12

It's a dead issue upaloopa Oct 2015 #26
This isn't. Fawke Em Oct 2015 #58
Hardly a dead issue.... tex-wyo-dem Oct 2015 #79

It is the same thing that IT has to fight executives over. The executives want the "I AM BOSS" LiberalArkie Oct 2015 #6
And, yet, the Hillary fans think this is some sort of witch hunt. Fawke Em Oct 2015 #13
I do know the their IT is covering his ass for some reason. I think it was set up for the LiberalArkie Oct 2015 #18
The IT guy is in actual legal jeopardy. jeff47 Oct 2015 #22
Yea, I think that is why he is taking the 5th. (And probably fifth of Crown or Jack Black also) LiberalArkie Oct 2015 #25
Got it: E-mails clean, so attack her on the server. Hortensis Oct 2015 #9
I've never cared about Benghazi or her emails. Fawke Em Oct 2015 #11
+1. I didn't get interested in this until the IT guy started talking about taking the Fifth. n/t winter is coming Oct 2015 #76

Thank you. Fawke Em Oct 2015 #17
This is why I consider Hillary supporters to be my political opponents, in a larger sense Maedhros Oct 2015 #20
Let me get this straight. yallerdawg Oct 2015 #30
I know this to be true because AtomicKitten Oct 2015 #52
Good point. Fawke Em Oct 2015 #61
Not every technical expert assumes the server ex- President Clinton had installed Hortensis Oct 2015 #23
Hillary's private server existed outside administrative control. Maedhros Oct 2015 #32
A standard assumption, but is it valid in this particular case? Hortensis Oct 2015 #38
I agree, this incident reveals an egregious failure by the Obama Administration Maedhros Oct 2015 #40
Now, be fair, Maedhros. Obama is prosecuting LEAKERS, not employees who, Hortensis Oct 2015 #41
In my job, I investigate people "who pass information to valid receivers" with no ill intent, Maedhros Oct 2015 #43
Noted, but irrelevant. Your intimation that Obama is prosecuting sloppy Hortensis Oct 2015 #44
Not my intimation at all. Maedhros Oct 2015 #46
NSA "whistleblower" Tom Drake is equivalent to a clerk confirming Hortensis Oct 2015 #50
How does a clerk confirming a lunch date by phone relate to this issue? Maedhros Oct 2015 #53
Let's both do that, shall we? Lots of other good stuff to take on out there. :) Hortensis Oct 2015 #54
I do agree that this email/server issue is not a factor in my choice of who to support. Maedhros Oct 2015 #56
Oh, I so understand that. I'm guessing as a security professional Hortensis Oct 2015 #60
Same here. Fawke Em Oct 2015 #64

Yes. It is valid. Fawke Em Oct 2015 #62
Precisely, Hillary privatized the top official in the State Department's server. Uncle Joe Oct 2015 #16
This comes to mind.. DCBob Oct 2015 #19
The horse just left the stable a couple of weeks ago. Fawke Em Oct 2015 #66
So Hillary's lack of cyber security skills means she would not be a good President?? DCBob Oct 2015 #83
I still don't give a shit! JRLeft Oct 2015 #21
Yet you would have howled to the sky if this had happened to Condoleeza Rice.[n/t] Maedhros Oct 2015 #33
I don't even like Hillary. There are plenty of reasons to not like her this is a waste of time and JRLeft Oct 2015 #37
Personally, I see this more as a failure by the Obama Administration for allowing this to happen. Maedhros Oct 2015 #39

You're wasting your time on people that have probably never installed and configured an OS before.. frylock Oct 2015 #36
They probably think hardening a server is akin to sitting fudge Fawke Em Oct 2015 #68
