SO WHAT! David Petraus just Plead Guilty to “Improper storage and retention of classified material”

Are official communications between the White Hut and the Secretary of State Classified?? Until “Officially de-classified” YES

Don’t be ridiculous. Rules are for the little folks, not for Her Royal Highness.

That is the biggest legal issue of this entire Hillary e-mail scandal.

These are the questions that I want someone to ask Hillary, preferably under oath.

Identify all of the flunkies in Hillary´s shadow government who went through all of her e-mails to decide what to turn over or who otherwise had access to her e-mail account after she left office.

Were each of these people legally authorized to access, read and copy classified information? Or are we to believe that during her entire time as Secretary of State Hillary never sent or received a single e-mail that contained classified information?

Finally, how do you distinguish Hillary´s gross mishandling of classified information from the actions that cost Patraeus his career and for which he has now been convicted? Laws are for the little people?

The inspector general’s report specifically noted that Gration violated State Department policy by using a private, unsanctioned e-mail service for official business.

Interesting. Our policy in Kenya was developed and executed via Gmail on the crapper.

From Wkiki:

Gration voted for George W. Bush in 2000.[7] In 2006, he traveled to Africa on a five-nation, fifteen-day, fact-finding tour, accompanying Senator Barack Obama as an “African expert”.[11] He later endorsed Obama’s presidential campaign, citing that Obama had the “judgment, wisdom, courage, experience, and leadership capability that we desperately need.”[12]

In 2007, the Obama campaign “beg[a]n sending Gration out on the stump . . . in an effort to improve the inexperienced senator’s image on national security.”[7] According to Obama foreign policy advisor Denis McDonough, Gration was “considered one of Obama’s three top military advisers, along with Richard Danzig, the former secretary of the Navy during the Clinton administration, and Gen. Merrill McPeak, former Air Force chief of staff.”[7]

Press reports say that in 2009, as a senior official on Obama’s transition team, Gration called and emailed several of President Bush's Pentagon appointees to inform them they were being dismissed. Those calls and emails were followed up by an email from Jim O’Beirne, the special assistant to the secretary of defense for White House liaisons, who expressed exasperation that Gration informed the employees directly instead of letting O’Beirne’s office know first. A Pentagon spokesperson said Secretary of Defense Gates was “absolutely satisfied” with how the transition was handled.[13]

He started of as a child of African missionaries and ended up as a military man compromised by politicians. I can understand the need for compartmentalizing your life, if you have sold your values in pursuit of lucre.

Why bother? We already know the answers to the questions. The answer to the tough questions is,"I don't remember." The answer to the easy ones is,"What difference does it make?" Oaths mean nothing to these people. Like taking an oath to abide by and protect the Constitution.

That’s because the fired person wasn’t an elite that could be trusted to make his own decisions about these things regardless of what the rules say.

Her ISP that allowed SMTP traffic thru their firewall is complicit.

” These are the questions that I want someone to ask Hillary, preferably under oath. “

Why? So she can say “ I don’t recall” 400 more times?

Doesn’t seem like the ISP did anything wrong (it was a godaddy setup). On the other hand, it’s hard to believe that State Department IT security won’t get busted for this, they had to be complicit.

How was she supposed to scrub what she didn’t want anyone to see if she didn’t have her own server?

The Ministry Of Propaganda has already declared this a non-issue.

Move on.org already, people /s

godaddy is not an ISP. Godaddy got her domain name etc. Her ISP has to know she is going to be receiving email at clintonmail.com. this requires the ISP to allow TCP port 25 traffic thru their firewall.
