Should Hillary have been charged in email scandal?

[OldDog]

...met for over 3 hours with 5 attorneys present and Comey said they did not record or save a transcript. You know, just like anyone else

Amazing. Gop praises the fbi director to the heavens.... chaffetz was asked if the gop would accept a decision not to indict, and he said

“Oh, probably. Because we do believe in James Comey.”

“I do think that in all of government, he is a man of integrity and honesty,” he said of Comey during a June 6 appearance on Fox News’ “Outnumbered.”

“His finger is on the pulse of this,” Chaffetz continued. “Nothing happens without him, and I think he is going to be the definitive person to make a determination or a recommendation.”

And paul ryan said?

“James Comey is a real standup guy,” Ryan said in a Tuesday radio interview with Charlie Sykes on Right Wisconsin. “He’s the FBI director. I do believe that his integrity is unequaled. I know U.S. attorneys who serve in Congress who just claim he is such a strong man of integrity.”

And do note that:
Comey is a Republican who served as deputy attorney general under President George W. Bush. And donated to the last two gop presidential nominees.

So, he was all these things to the gop, but because he did not indict....what? He no longer has integrity? The gop members were wrong before when praising him, or wrong now when they disagree with him? And how can they excoriate him on the hill, call his findings into question, question his integrity, and then use whst he said in his press conference when he bashed the hell out of hilary?!
I seear, the gop would eff up a wet dream.

Yet, members of congress have demanded the transcript of the fbi interview. You think they would ask for something that did not exist?

The MSM is falling over themselves trying to control the email damage to HRC's campaign, but they only make matters worse.



Oh, and the top story at the Washington Post right now is headlined, “Trump urges Russia to hack Clinton’s emails and release them publicly.” CNN went with, “Donald Trump encourages Russia to hack Hillary Clinton.”

But the Clinton camp told us that her server(s) couldn't be hacked. And aren't they in the possession of the FBI, or were they returned? And aren't the 30,000 deleted emails about yoga and wedding planning, anyway?

Remember this?

Brilliant. Myopic DNC policies and an even more myopic base lend themselves to this level of abject stupidity. Mollie Hemingway has a unique knack of taking an independent viewpoint and putting it succinctly and embarrassingly into perspective.

just because that dipshit said Russia should hack them doesn't mean they can.

So tell me that you think it is ok for Trump a candidate for president of the United States to have said what he said. I despise Hillary but for **** sake he needs to keep his ****ing mouth shut. I await your response cause I have a morbid curiosity seeing how someone justifies an unjustifiable position. Whatever she did or didnt do doesn't justify this. Actually we should be ****ing embarassed as citizens of the United States to have our leaders say **** like this. He keeps this up and the 100-1 on Paul Ryan isnt as crazy as it seems.

He was joking...

Anyone who would actually watch the press conference rather than read these embarrassing NY Times and Washington Post headlines would see clearly that this was back and forth banter with a reporter and was clearly tongue in cheek.

The fact that it is resonating so deeply with a few is that they either a. haven't physically seen it, b. don't understand how this guy has completely overtaken, and is now directing the DNC narrative.

Bill Clinton's speech, which was supposed to be a cornerstone in redefining her impossibly irreparable image, is now a long forgotten, distant memory.

Let's suppose, just for a moment, that Hillary WASN'T lying (I know, I know...impossible to believe, but humor me) and these 33,000 emails were REALLY all about yoga and wedding plans. No espionage, no divulging of state secrets...What is her loss? A little embarrassment over her pompousness, laziness and stupidity? SHE WANTS TO BE IN CHARGE OF THE FUC!<ING NUCLEAR CODES FOR FUC1<S SAKE.

Now, let's say that she actually didn't give a sh1t about any of that cuz she's the Sec of State and queen of the free world and all those pesky security regulations and FOIA rules don't apply to her - and vital security documents were hacked (NSA puts those odds at about 90%, BTW) - WTF does Trump bringing this to light change? Were they NOT going to use them until he "gave them permission??!!"

Absolutely astounding to me the uproar over this, when the DOJ let her walk out the prison gates for this precise negligence.

I for one thought it was hilarious - IN IT'S CONTEXT - and a joke that the left has their panties in a twist - it is 100% their candidate's ridiculously poor judgement that has created this mess - not Trump.

I think is was clever, perhaps even brilliant, and the Clinton campaign and its media arm took the bait.

Trump never called on the Russians to hack into Hillary's deleted emails. At this point, they can't. IF the Russians or anyone else has her deleted emails they hacked them long ago.

Hillary's lawyers deleted the 30,000 or so emails and she defended this by claiming that they contained only non-work related information, and the Democratic operatives with bylines readily accepted her word as fact. Either she was truthful -- for once -- and the emails pose no national security threat, or she misled a nation and they do. But at this point, as she once famously said, what difference does it make? If the Russians have them, they have them. Nothing that Trump said will change that.

Either way, it's fascinating to ONLY NOW see Democrats and their media allies freaking out over the national security implications of a SOS using a private server. Even more how they try to spin Trump's call for the exposure of "personal" emails as a treasonous act.

they aren't freaking out of implications of a private server.
they are, rightfully so, freaking out about this dumbass saying hey Russia, hack my political opponent.
and hell, even gop folks are up in arms about it (or are you ignoring that part?) as they should be. I cannot believe you are saying this is no big deal. a potential president is calling for this for a foreign power, and Russia at that, and you say no big deal?
that's crazy.
