Gotta love that double standard.

One set of rules for the elite and a shitty set for the common folks.

the thing that kills me is Comey saying "we're not going to suggest charges because no prosecutor will press the case"

how do you know!?!??! and since when is the FBI the police and prosecutor? Just make the damn recommendation and let the AG decide you moron.

It Bullshit. The FBI has recently pressed a case


Man Commits EXACT Same Crime as Hillary, Look What Happens to him...

Well, we did. Here is the FBI itself, less than a year ago, charging one Bryan H. Nishimura, 50, of Folsom, who pleaded guilty to “unauthorized removal and retention of classified materials” without malicious intent, in other words precisely what the FBI alleges Hillary did (h/t @DavidSirota

Still it's a travesty of justice, and just goes to show that all are equal, but some are more 'equal' than others.

I think there's something to that; he did the best he could, under the circumstances.

She's our next President; it was totally preventable.

Here ya go (from the AP):

CLINTON: "I did not email any classified material to anyone on my email. There is no classified material." News conference, March 2015.

THE FACTS: Actually, the FBI identified at least 113 emails that passed through Clinton's server and contained materials that were classified at the time they were sent, including some that were Top Secret and referred to a highly classified special access program, Comey said.


CLINTON: "I never received nor sent any material that was marked classified." NBC interview, July 2016.

THE FACTS: Clinton has separately clung to her rationale that there were no classification markings on her emails that would have warned her and others not to transmit the sensitive material. But the private system did, in fact, handle emails that bore markings indicating they contained classified information, Comey said.


CLINTON: "I responded right away and provided all my emails that could possibly be work related" to the State Department. News conference, March 2015.

THE FACTS: Not so, the FBI found.

Comey said that when his forensic team examined Clinton's server it found there were "several thousand work-related emails that were not in the group of 30,000" that had been returned by Clinton to the State Department.


CLINTON: "I thought it would be easier to carry just one device for my work and for personal emails instead of two." News conference, March 2015.

THE FACTS: This reasoning for using private email both for public business and private correspondence didn't hold up in the investigation. Clinton "used numerous mobile devices to view and send email" using her personal account, Comey said. He also said Clinton had used different servers.


CLINTON: "I opted for convenience to use my personal email account, which was allowed by the State Department." News conference, March 2015.

THE FACTS: Comey did not address Clinton's reason for using a private server instead of a government one, but he highlighted the perils in routing sensitive information through a home server.

The FBI found that Clinton's personal server was "not even supported by full-time security staff like those found at agencies and departments of the United States government or even with a commercial email service like Gmail," the director said.

Hillary could use a newborn baby to beat a puppy to death and get away with it. It is a new world and I don't fit in it.

My take. Hillary and the FBI came up with an agreement that she can continue to play the role she is in now and collect money she wants. But come election time, she will lose.

The price of freedom - but the loss of power.

For "civilians" that don't understand why this matters:

From Gary B Sasin, retired Master Chief, USN.

"Let me break this down, for those who have never held a security clearance:

1. The compromise of Top Secret information is expected to cause “exceptionally grave damage” to our national security. Hillary Clinton mishandled 8 Top Secret emails with 7 at the Special Access Program level which may include black projects, nuclear info, etc. This is the absolute highest level of our nations guarded secrets.

2. Out of the 110 classified emails, 32 chains contained Secret information. This is the second highest classification that could cause “serious damage” to our national security.

3. Finally, she mishandled 2,000 additional emails which were up-classified with 8 being classified at the time. These are the lowest level which would still cause irreparable harm and “damage” to our national security if disclosed.

Overall, Hillary Clinton was “extremely careless” with these emails and it is “highly probable” that a hostile state actor has access to these State secrets, by the FBI’s own admission. Then, Clinton repeatedly lies about it to the American people. “Let me repeat what I have repeated for many months now. I never received nor sent any material that was marked classified.”

But I guess, according to the FBI director, since there’s no precedent for this level of stupidity, they won’t recommend charges be filed.

Not surprised, but absolutely disgusted."

Nope, Comey was intimidated. Too many high ranking administrative dolts would have been implicated (Pres, probably VP, other staff members, etc) and given the desire to maintain Obozo's legacy, it was never going to happen.

It was a done deal in April when Obozo talked to Chris Wallace (if my memory is correct) and used almost the same exact language that Comey did on Tuesday. Pretty much, she had no intent to jeopardize the country (although that really is not the intent of the statute), and she was careless (notice the same wording). It was done then.

The only way Hillary can ever get a security clearance again is if she wins the presidency, because I doubt she would pass any kind of background check based on the FBI findings.

Obama has know ties to convicted terrorists (Ayers), he wouldn't pass a background check...and yet...

And the drama's not over yet. The U.S. State Department has restarted its probe of her emails.
