NOW it's gibberish...a few posts ago you were completing my "thoughts".
Keep posting...you have a few more posts to make before you reach rock bottom.
1. Unintelligible or nonsensical talk or writing.
2. Highly technical or esoteric language.
3. Unnecessarily pretentious or vague language.
because the RNC wasn't covered under Federal Law.....and it was never proven that WH business was actually in any of them. AND the DEMS who controlled Congress at the time never tried to confiscate the server, and never asked for a Special Prosecutor to get it. And if you look for it, you will find a video of HC being the one who was MOST outraged over those private emails..........the irony is that it's coming back to bite her a$$ now, doncha think, since now SHE'S the one in the hotseat? The very person who SHOULD have known better but believes she's above the law, as usual.
You're beating dead horses now trying to deflect from HER.......it's not working.
I don't say I blame her for setting up one of her own. I will say that I don't buy that she just wanted one device since she has an iPad and a mini iPad and an iPhone and a BlackBerry. I don't know if she leaves them all at home when she travels.
She's so arrogant that she believes the laws don't pertain to her (and her hubby), and she has always believed that.
Got a new thing to complain about. Got bored with Benghazi? Everyone else it.
If Hillary was using private email to conduct government business, then her email becomes public email and therefore subject to review.
Jeb Bush personally chose which of his emails he deemed "state business" when he did his initial email dump a few months ago. The rest? Nah, we don't get to see those.
Marco Rubio used a private email account when he was speaker of the Florida House and admits he deleted them.
Scott Walker was caught using a personal email account as the governor of Wisconsin.
Rick Perry used a private email account during his long tenure as governor of Texas
Every one of the above men is running for president and yet, they did exactly the same thing Hillary Clinton did: they all used a private email to conduct public business. Remember Mitt Romney? He ran for president and destroyed his emails and computers after he left the Massachusetts' governor's office.
....with splitting apart the truly private emails from those which were concerning government business.
Even Carville admitted that she didn't want the GOP 'rifling' thru her emails. It appears to most that archiving them or giving all of her emails to the State Dept regularly or as she left, she knew before she took office that she would be hiding whatever she would do and made plans to do just that. She didn't/couldn't know what was going to happen in Benghazi, but she DID know what she would be doing regarding her foundation and that it went against what she agreed to with the BO Administration when she accepted that position.
"http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3268355/posts"
I was really surprised that when she lost the election and knew how the Clintons felt about BO that she was willing to accept the position. It was speculated that she accepted because he promised to help her pay off her election debt and/or would help her run in 2016.....I now believe she took that job specifically because it allowed her to get to all those countries for foundation 'fundraising' all on the taxpayer's dime and it didn't cost her a thing for four years.
And exactly where would you find one of those?
she didn't want the GOP 'rifling' thru her emails.
DUH!!! And you're shocked by that statement?
IF/WHEN more than one person knows something...It is no longer "truly private"
Today they're independent.....tomorrow they are not so independent.
She is also a former online communication strategist to Ron Paul, Scott Walker, Rick Perry, and Carly Fiorina-all considering presidential bids. She is also obviously very successful in social media. She has over 17,000 followers on twitter, and her posts are blunt, honest, thought-provoking, occasionally vulgar, and often refreshing. Exactly the type of people many of us like to follow. As such, she should prove valuable in any political campaign she serves.
Yet, because she offended Iowa Republican party leaders, she's on the sidelines. Apparently it gets worse, judging by another tweet of hers:
"It's a sad commentary that self-described Iowa Rs are emailing me calling me things like "pig," "*****," and "****."
YOU don't click on links from "Think Progress", I don't click on links from "The Free Republic".
from Think Progress........I never said I didn't. What I said was "what kind of viewpoint did you expect to get from them".
Evidently, with your response regarding "independent prosecutors/investigators", you trust no one unless they are as liberal as you?
demanded by any investigation to be turned over.....or even the drives where they might have been recovered, Diana........that's not what has happened with the likes of Lois Lerner and HC. In fact, Lois Lerner's emails WERE captured......and disappeared anyhow via a 'crashed harddrive' that supposedly was destroyed along with MANY others that held those emails at exactly the same time. Coincidence? Not hardly.
you have to ask?
You haven't heard a peep about Rubio and him deleting email?
Not a thing? Nothing? NADA?
I saw one article from the WSJ online, but can't read the article unless I subscribe (which I won't do)......
However, was he required to keep his private emails archived? Was he a high-positioned part of the administration that WAS required to do so? Was he a Secretary of State with classified information? Have any of his emails ever been subpoenaed for an investigation? Was he required to turn over all of his personal and government emails to the State Dept for THEM to determine what was personal and was government related, with personal emails returned to him rather than HE determine which HE would turn over and hold them for over two years until a subpoena was issued to get them?
Again, I ask.....what about him?
Here's a link in post Diana made in THIS thread...i guess you didn't bother to read it....
Gowdy's hypocrisy shouldn't surprise anyone, frankly. Look no farther than every single Republican running for president:
Jeb Bush personally chose which of his emails he deemed "state business" when he did his initial email dump a few months ago. The rest? Nah, we don't get to see those.
Marco Rubio used a private email account when he was speaker of the Florida House and admits he deleted them.
Scott Walker was caught using a personal email account as the governor of Wisconsin.
Rick Perry used a private email account during his long tenure as governor of Texas.
AND
Jeb Bush released a large volume of emails from the personal — i.e., non-government — email account that he used as Florida governor, and praised his own transparency with typical extravagance. The problem is that those emails represent only 10 percent of those he wrote. The rest he has withheld, without any public review under Florida open records laws. When Scott Walker served as Milwaukee county executive, before he was elected Wisconsin governor, he and his staff used a secret email system for illegal campaign work, which emerged as part of an investigation that ultimately sent one of his aides to prison (another was immunized by prosecutors). Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal has used a personal email account for government business, as has Texas Governor Rick Perry. So have Florida Senator Marco Rubio,
"Was he required to keep his private emails archived? Was he a high-positioned part of the WH administration that WAS required to do so? Was he a Secretary of State with classified information? Have any of his emails ever been subpoenaed for an investigation? Was he required to turn over all of his personal and government emails to the State Dept for THEM to determine what was personal and was government related, with personal emails returned to him rather than HE determine which HE would turn over and hold them for over two years until a subpoena was issued to get them?"
IF, Joe Biden or any other former/current Senator/Governor/Mayor who are DEMS run against HC, will THEY get the same liberal media treatment over their email accounts, since NONE (except Biden) are required to archive everything? Joe Biden WAS a Senator....will HIS emails be made available or will he excuse them away as not being under the requirement rules when HE was a Senator?
you asked
what about him?
I told you "what about him"
You ask more questions...When will it end?
NEVER!!
You get answers, your don't see/read them....when you do, you ask more questions....(I counted 6 question marks in your post)
I can't wait until they replace them all with people that will do exactly the same things that the people that are replaced are doing...THEN you'll be happy, or pretend you're happy...
Instead you pointed back to ONE article that happened to MENTION him, along with others, and NONE were required to archive their emails on the level of the State Dept, except Joe Biden AFTER he became VP NOT while a Senator.
So.........since Rubio doesn't even come close to that level of requirements like HC AND HER STAFF do (and many of THEM had THEIR private emails on HER server and ALSO didn't comply with the law (proving her to be a liar), again, I ask.........What about him?
When you or Diana can actually ANSWER that, we'll discuss it further.
