I have seen people share such records on facebook, which is not private in any way, shape, or form. I would not share such things on email, Facebook, or anywhere else. That inforamtion belongs to Chelsea, and she has the right to share them with her mother and family, whether it is wise to do so is a different matter.

In my opinion, Hillary did not handle her email correctly, but there is no indication that she broke the law or regulations in power at the time.

The issue to me is who is allowed to write memoires. If the family of the President and his cabinet can write a juicy, tell all memoire, then so should the people who work for them.

The people who work in the Whitehouse own their memories. If they want to share them, that is their choice.
