2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: Benghazi witch hunt proven [View all]Bill USA
(6,436 posts)61. this is how the disinformation campaign against HRC by the GOP works. You made a charge that was
without any basis. Then somebody else who doesn't bother to check the charge out repeats it as if it were actually true. Others, who can't - or won't - think for themselves, upon hearing/reading it being repeated, eventually think since they have heard/read a number of people repeating it, it must then be true.
This is the basis of "the Big Lie" as laid out by a well known German maniac of the 20th Century.
Anytime you can provide proof to back up the charge you made I'll take back my declaration that your charge is BULLSHIT..

I don't think there is any criminal liability risk with the security of the server.
