Over half the emails on her private server were official emails, the ones she felt compelled to surrender to the State a department, the ones her personal staff screened and identified as official.
Are you seriously contending that none of the 55,000 pages of email she turned over to the state a department were 'official' emails? To make that claim you have to believe that she ran the state department for FOUR years and never sent out an 'official email'... Is that your claim?
There are exactly three possible paths a gov't employee can take if they decide to ever send a personal email while holding office:
1) All email, personal and official, sent on government account - no outside account.
2) all email, personal and official, sent on a private, non-government account - no government account.
3) All personal email sent on personal account, all official email sent on official account.
Hillary could have gone with option 1, but I suspect she was afraid of filling up government email archives with her personal yoga workout routines. Condi Rice went this route.
She could have gone with option 3, but as was witnessed when the Bush White House was found having email servers paid for by the GOP and used by GOP officials to conduct GOP business, the public had a hard time making sense of what they tried to do, and focused on the occasional misstep.
No, Hillary went with option 2, and opened herself up to many, many problems.
Answer this question - how do Chuck Schummer, Harry arris, and Nancy Pelosi conduct DEMOCRAT PARTY BUSINESS, on private email servers or on government servers? They, being law-abiding legislators I'm certain comply with the Hatch rule and conduct no party business in their offices or on official email accounts.
Just like the Republicans did under Busg.
Why don't we put windmills on electric cars?
Because the increased energy expended compensating for the wind load/resistance of the windmill exceeds the power output of the windmill because windmills are less than 100% efficient. Stationary windmills make sense because their weight and the amount they reduce the speed of the air that oasses thru them are not important. Even if a windmill was 100% efficient, the power lost equals the power generated, which it isn't, it would be pointless, like exchanging a $100 for 10,000 pennies.
How is this any different?
This attempt to 'reclaim' energy would, by some small amount, reduce the speed of the car by an amout roughly equal to amount of 'reclaimed' energy...
Why don't we put windmills on top of electric cars, thus generating power and recharging the batteries as the car is driven (or parked in a windy spot!)? Because the increased drag on the car from the windmill far exceeds the power generated by the windmill - same here.
Because such a bill WOULD require POTUS' signature, that is unlikely to happen, at least until 2024.
Because the Democrats are destined to win the Oval Office in 2016 and again in 2020?
Based on what?
Their stellar victories in the 2010, 2012, and 2014 elections?
Their majority leadership positions in state governors offices?
The last Democrat candidate that took the White House from a democratic predecessor was Harry Truman.
$1.2M over the past decade?!?!
That is $120K/yr... Not quite a lottery-size payout...
Oh, and Koch Brothers? Come on, can't the left find another boogie man to pin all their fears on?
How much money was spent on the other side to re-affirm what 'everyone' agrees with?
I have no issue with vaccines. I have an issue with government usurping the power to decide what medical treatment I will undergo.
Exactly.
It is interesting to watch the "Keep your laws off my body" Democrats suddenly insist that we need laws to require certain medical treatments for children.
The normal meaning of the phrase "level playing field" refers to equality of opportunity for individuals, and pretty much by definition requires government interference in businesses who are discriminating against people because of sex, race or whatever.
Interesting.
Explain your 'level playing field' benefit in the case of a federally funded project with a certain percentage (say, 20%, just to put a number on it) of the work is 'set aside' to be awarded to minority-owned businesses. While the non-minority business owner can only bid on 80% of the work, a minority-owned business can bid on 100% of the work. How does the diminished opportunities available to the non-minority business owner 'level the playing field'?
And note that if we were to eschew "heavy-handed top down government" then much of the South would likely still be living under Jim Crow law. Think about that for a while.
So I have accept a government that dictates what my local school feeds my child and that can confiscate monies legally earned if they take issue with the manner in which I choose to deposit it in the bank, lest Jim Crow laws return?
No.
so you suspect that rather than dropping boys to make room for girls in computer class, schools will simply build additional computer labs and hire more teachers?
Interesting - I wonder where this marvelous school district is, unconstrained by limited resources like most schools in the real world...
Boys' over-representation in K-12 computer classes has perplexed educators for 30+ years.
Seriously? Is there ANY chance this won't lead to discrimination against little white boys that like computers?
Will there be similar 'wonderful' legislation passed to address the gender disparity in, say, home economics or wood shop? What about dance classes? Auto shop?
Will girls be forced to enroll in computer classes or will boys be prevented from disproportionately enrolling in the class?
This is a $34 Billion dollar per year proposal - where will the funding come from?
I wonder if those who support this program would still support it if this 'free 2 year college' program replaced the Pell Grant program, completely eliminating all grants for students attending four year institutions?
All this really does is extend high school by two years and delay the student's entry into the workforce by a similar period in many cases...
Most physicians - who have generally done only 8 years of school (2 years more than a teacher)
Ever compare medical school tuition to the cost of a mail-order Masters in Teaching program? Med school is vastly more expensive, with first year doctors typically carrying a quarter million dollars in student debt.
It is not the case that 'most states require a masters to teach' in K-12 - in some states there are a glut of applicants and only those with Masters get the jobs, but I've not seen a state that REQUIRES a masters to teach 3rd graders. Many teachers work towards a masters in education because it boosts their pay, in my experience.
Everyone is equal, some are just more equal than others.
I remember my alma mater decided one year to vastly increase the number of women accepted into their freshman class. rather than accept the top 400 applicants regardless of gender, they accepted the top 125 female applicants, most of whom never expected to be accepted - they applied because their father graduated from there - and the failure rate was astronomical... Typically half the freshman class failed out before sophomore year, for the girls it was more like 75-80% of Friedman girls failed out. How did that help those girls?
But why isn't the Navy doing this themselves? Surely they have the manpower & capability and there must be huge sections that can easily be re-used.
The US Military just has too much money; they've lost all sense of the value of anything.
This, of course, is based on your years of insight into the workings of the U.S. Navy, right?
Exactly what do you think was sold? What 'huge sections' are there to reuse? Your ignorance on this topic is staggering, as is your insistence that you know better than everyone else involved in scraping this ship...
Right, because instability in the Middle East and Russia will result in peace and cooperation in those regions, no need for anything resembling our current levels of military build-up...
the free access portals even though I think its still a bad idea to have people 'login' to a free service. but this is your HOME service that you are now being filtered at, unless you 'respond' to this or that question of the day.
that's unacceptable.
The people in the UK asked for it, their political leaders passed it, and their ISPs were left trying to figure out how to implement it...
To them (the people in the U.K.) this is acceptable - dice, you know, they asked for it - literally.

Honestly, there are quite simply too many variables to distill this debate to a simple, reasoned decision.

Girls succeed when boys are excluded!
