Here's what I have learned.....about half way through Mills transcript.

There are apparently other email addresses used that we had previously not realized. Some related to the 2008 campaign. Many variations of the clintonemail. H2.

Mills was instructed to not answer many of the questions, by her attorneys.

Mills has a very, very poor memory.

There are others who apparently had access to the server.

Hmm. Didn't Guccifer say something about not being that interested in Clinton's server at first because all he saw was a bunch of stuff related to elections? Maybe he wasn't bullshitting about hacking into her server.

5. There Is No Possible Relevance to Email Addresses Related to 2008 Campaign

there is no right to unfettered access to emails that aren't relevant to pending litigation. She wasn't Secretary of State at the time. That's called a "fishin' expedition" and discovery into such email should not be allowed based upon the legal issues in this controversy.

...after she became SoS. It has to do with FOIA of her emails, no matter what address she was receiving mail or sending mail from.

In searching for him I came across an article mentioning Hillary asking Flores to "print a copy" of a document quoted in one of the e-mail dumps. So I guess he was a well rounded guy. I wonder if he had a Military Clearance to deal with her e-mail along with his other duties. He is retired military.

Clintons' Attend Retirement Ceremony aboard USS Makin Island

By Ensign Stephen Logan, USS Makin Island Public Affairs

4/1/2011

SAN DIEGO - Former President William Jefferson Clinton, and Secretary of State, Hillary Rodham Clinton were guests at a retirement ceremony aboard USS Makin Island (LHD 8) April 1.

The ceremony marked the conclusion of a 22-year Navy career for Chief Culinary Specialist Oscar Flores, United States Navy Reserve, who had served as a culinary specialist at the White house.

Flores is currently employed as director of operations at the Clinton residence in Chappaqua, N.Y.

"Oscar without the Navy, is like me without a pants suit," said Hillary Clinton. "…We call him the 'Mayor of Chappaqua,' because a simple trip to the grocery store or to the post office turns into a three hour town hall meeting. Everybody wants to talk to Oscar."

Secretary Clinton also spoke of Flores' charismatic personality and his broad group of close friends and acquaintances.


President Clinton reiterated Flores' beloved status, lamenting that even the family dog likes Flores more. He said Flores had become a member of the family through his devotion and steadfast service. Decorating the Christmas tree, preserving family heirlooms during a flood, and taking care of the former president during his quadruple bypass surgery, all forged a solid bond between him and the Clintons.

"I was so proud of him," President Clinton said.

because she couldn't use her Blackberry in the office. All this talk about not knowing it was wrong is just BS.

13. Sounds "convenient".

Having to leave your office to send or receive emails. Having all of your emails go to your coworkers' spam boxes.

Yep, the height of "convenience" that private server was.
