It's mostly attacking the messenger stuff and stating that since government also gets hacked Uncle Joe Oct 2015 #18

Ah. Probably the same posters who attacked every Snowden thread over the years Catherina Oct 2015 #25

H. A. Goodman is a Bernie Sanders propagandist moobu2 Oct 2015 #16

As of March 16th 2015, the person that wrote this article was planning on voting for Hillary if Uncle Joe Oct 2015 #29

And if Bernie Sanders is the nominee (he wont be) moobu2 Oct 2015 #32

I believe he would vote for Bernie should he become the nominee, the point being not all critics Uncle Joe Oct 2015 #35

Wow, you are saying Hillary's supporters would vote GOP or not vote? Gore1FL Oct 2015 #50

Bernie Sanders isn't a Democrat moobu2 Oct 2015 #89

Federal government emails are not secure. I got chewed out by HUD yesterday for emailing a document upaloopa Oct 2015 #34

Right. You had a team telling you not to do that. Fawke Em Oct 2015 #47

What was your point? upaloopa Oct 2015 #62

That, while no server is totally secure, Dot Gov has professionals Fawke Em Oct 2015 #96

There was no security breach there were no laws upaloopa Oct 2015 #97

Yes, Sanders is completely dependent on Hillary having a scandal to win. L. Coyote Oct 2015 #36

I just can't get on board with any suggestion that Snowden said anything not already known? Todays_Illusion Oct 2015 #38

A true libertarian would most likely support Hillary's decision of placing her server outside Uncle Joe Oct 2015 #41

We can all stop worrying about it, (R) Speaker candidate Kevin McCarthy said, it is all only a Todays_Illusion Oct 2015 #65

He was referring to Benghazi, that's a separate issue from Hillary setting up her own server, even Uncle Joe Oct 2015 #67

The email story is from the committee, they had nothing until they got creative over email. Todays_Illusion Oct 2015 #108

The Hillary having her own server is a factual issue and Politico isn't the only one acknowledging Uncle Joe Oct 2015 #120

The Republicans still have nothing and you are moving the goal/topic. Todays_Illusion Oct 2015 #121

No other department head had their own private "server," Hillary is the first. Uncle Joe Oct 2015 #122

You cling to your story even as the evidence shows you are wrong. Todays_Illusion Oct 2015 #123

Hero Ed is correct. Her emails were not safe. He is correct, but it really isn't a big deal. BillZBubb Oct 2015 #127
