Judge Orders State Dept, FBI To Expand Clinton Email Server Probe

An anonymous reader writes: In a hearing over Freedom of Information Act requests to the State Department, U.S. District Judge Emmet Sullivan said that former US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton didn't comply with government policies. He ordered the State Department to reach out to the FBI to see if any relevant emails exist on Hillary Clinton's email server. Judge Sullivan was surprised that the State Department and FBI were not already communicating on the issue following the FBI's seizure of Clinton's email server and three thumb drives of emails. More than 300 emails are being examined for containing classified information, and dozens of the emails were "born classified" based on content. Some of those emails were forwarded outside the government. There are also clues emerging about how some of the classified information made its way onto Clinton's server. The email controversy is beginning to show up on the campaign trail, an unwelcome development for Secretary Clinton. Reporter Bob Woodward, who helped bring down President Nixon, said the scandal reminds him of the Nixon tapes. It is interesting to note that the post-Watergate reforms have helped move the investigation forward.

    Better the skum you know, what was the alternative? Worse skum. Controlled by even worse skum. They were and are the least offensive of the skum. They were of the people, who were not entitled. After all, look at the "good" the religious right have done. Created a sounder, better America? Or just enriched their control? Created a beacon of freedom, or fondeled your testicals? Aided those in need, or created wars to squander your resources?

    So, are you saying that two wrongs make a right, or that because you so strongly dislike the Right it's okay for the Left to lie, deceive and obstruct?

    Let me point out something very, very important - Thinking the other side is worse justifies nothing.

    True, but you think the Right doesn't lie, deceive and obstruct? It's not that one side is worse; they're the same. The only difference is about what each side lies, deceives and obstructs. If you're rich, white, straight, and preferable Christian, you're welcome to hook your wagon up with the Right. Otherwise, they're the Wrong Ones for You.
