See, you are cute in the fact that you obviously have never worked in any capacity regarding clearances or for the govt.Opinions like this put you pretty much rank in file with followers of trump who don't care either except you do that for hillary.
Look, I'm also going by what I see the experts saying. The DOJ says they don't care and think there's nothing important on the serves either, and they've seen it.
So, with no new developments in, what, half a year? More? With the experts saying it's no biggie, and millions spent on investigation not saying anything... I'm left with, "Who do I trust more, the experts who say it was ill-advised but not illegal at the time and not serious, and regardless, nothing actually got out, and is entirely in the past tense, or the people with an obvious axe to the grind?".
If the Department of Justice thought something was up, I'd take it seriously, but as I am a layperson, I'm not going to take an opinion of another layperson over, you know, the authorities who's job it is to say what's important and not at the highest levels.
It is what it is Patraeus broke the law and was punished, honestly his punishment was super light but comparing Hillary to his misdeeds is neither here nor there.
I bring him up mostly because you said there's no-way someone else would get off, and then someone got off with a super-light punishment for notably worse action.
Also it clearly doesn't matter to you at all, you are one of her supporters that will cling to her no matter what. That's fine but like I said you should probably think twice about making fun of trumpsters when you are stuck on hillary🙂
Here's the thing- You say "No matter what," when the thing being pushed is... the exact same thing that's been pushed at for month, where the big issue seems to be not any real damage but the principle of the thing.
Among the people not caring are the Department of Justice, Department of Defense, expensive investigations, and Bernie Sanders, who even though he's opposed to her thinks of it as a minor distraction that gets in the way of talk on the issues.
You really aren't setting up your accusation of 'no matter what' very well.
Trump? Says he'll try and deport 11 million people and build a wall. The former of which is both horrible, and will cause a significant economic collapse in the areas affected.
Hillary? Had an insufficiently secure server, which is shut down, won't happen again. No new damning information has come out since this whole thing started, just every few weeks people pull it out again and act like there's something new when, surprise surprise, there never is.
So yea, I'm with Bernie on this one. Enough with the e-mails, the highest authorities on the subject and even her main political rival don't particularly care or think it's a big deal.
Simply repeating the same minor accusations a dozen times doesn't mean someone lacks limits, just that said limits have to be more than the same-ol same-ol. And if all it takes for you to say that someone will defend Hillary from everything is that they'll defend Hillary from something, that doesn't exactly give me a good view of your sense of proportion.
Heck, it really makes getting the conservative opinion on things boring. "Lesse, check again, what's the conservative buzz on Hillary, any new strategies or angles of attack against her ....? Nope, the exact same scandals which most people don't care about and likewise think is mined dry."
Do you actually think this server thing is on the level of the largest, most unforgivable scandals ever? Really?
Really Really?
If you actually think that, rather than just saying that because you find it hard to believe someone would defend Hillary on anything at all, I'd be surprised.
