1. nobody asks her what she thinks was the mistake? If, as she claims, what she

did was allowed, then how was following the rules a mistake?
Was it a mistake not to turn over her emails when she left office? She knew she hadn't done so. She knew she was required to do so, under the rules, so what was the mistake? She was warned repeatedly not to use non state dept e-mail because of security issues. Was it a mistake to ignore the numerous warnings?
She put out a directive to State employees to not use private e-mail for work...was it a mistake not to follow her own directive?
What was the mistake?

depositions in their FOIA cases around this.

Can't blame any of this on Bernie and his supporters.

When someone lies about something as much as Hillary has lied about this, you know something is up. Everyone smells it. It's just a matter of time before dinner is served.

It is the fact that she blew off the security rules and protocols, I need to use these in my Job and I'd already would be in Jail if I was to do half the things she has already done. It's the point that people like her get special treatment and if "everybody else got to do it" (which is not true) then they should be prosecuted as well.

I got the Come to Jesus briefing for leaving classified open on my desk while I walked across the room to get a cuppa.

Why did she send an email saying she thought her email was hacked, and then tell the world repeatedly that there was NO CHANCE her email was hacked?

Why was her email server sending out phishing links to her?

Why didn't she report any of that to State the way she was obligated to do?

Why did she tell the world she was cooperating fully with the investigation then refuse to cooperate with the investigation?



It's become alarming obvious that she is able to lie to America and NEVER accept responsibility for her actions, other than to make vague and often dishonest apologies. Or - more often - blame others for her mistakes.

And why can't Clintonites see that a candidate like this - who everyone has been screaming is like this for years now - is so damaged and so damaging - that, not only won't she do well in a general election, but if she somehow manages to win, will actually hurt America in a Nixonian way.

They'll be blaming the Bernie supporters for that loss. No, it'll be their fault for standing behind an awful candidate. Hillary supporters will own it, not the Bernie supporters.

I hate to be right about this, but this will be the perfect example of "we told you so!" During the primaries.

Yelling "YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO MENTION THIS, IT ONLY HELPS TRUMP!" won't work on independent and undecided voters.

... and the first words from her mouth were "I've said many times, it was a mistake..." That was all I could take.

Something is up for sure. I just don't know why FBI and Justice are dragging their feet. It's like they are protecting or enabling her. Are they afraid of her? Justice in this country is so damn slow we might as well say we have none. We are in the effing Primary of our lives.
The leading candidate is being investigated by the FBI and they won't produce the results.
