Lindsey Graham: I've never sent an email
CNN ^ | March 9, 2015 | Eric Bradner

Posted on 03/09/2015 9:26:26 AM PDT by maggief

The South Carolina Republican and potential 2016 presidential contender offered to share everything he's ever sent with NBC's "Meet the Press" host Chuck Todd -- but said there's not really much to turn over.

"You can have every email I've ever sent -- I've never sent one," he said. "I don't know what that makes me."

Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano doesn’t believe in using email.

“I think email just sucks up time,” Napolitano told an incredulous group of reporters on Tuesday, speaking at a breakfast hosted by The Christian Science Monitor.

Napolitano, who said she doesn’t text or “Twitter” either, said she may use email “at some point,” but right now, it’s not in the cards.

“In many respects, in a job like mine, it’s inefficient,” Napolitano said, noting that she is briefed by staff frequently and prefers to use the phone for much of her work. “I stopped using email when I was attorney general of Arizona. I was like, ‘Why am I spending my time scrolling through this?’”

It makes him a politician totally out of step with reality.

A good reason he should not be President in my opinion. It says that he is far out of touch with the modern world, living in some weird cocoon of privilege and personal secretaries.

This is why the older politicians don’t give a damn about the FCC power grab over the internet (”and why the hell AREN’T we getting sales tax of the innertubes???”).

If you don’t put anything in writing, it cannot be used against you later in a court of law.

He’s been a military officer in the Reserves. The military uses email all of the time. What’s he do, just read them and not reply? It’s too weird to believe.

People who eschew email are at the least anachronistic Luddites, at worst conniving conspirators who know to leave no trail that can be physically documented. She IS the latter.

I've never sent one," he said. "I don't know what that makes me."

An irrelevant idiot who is ready for checkers and arm stretching at the nearest retirement home.

The jokes here write themselves. Wow.

I'm sure it's much better use of one's time to use a typewriter to type up a letter and address an envelope and mail it the old fashioned way.

Hey Linseed!

It’s not about you and your desire to defend Hillary.

Its about Hillary ILLEGALLY conducting Federal Business on her personal e-mail server.

Hillary DID send e-mails and then rather than comply with Court Orders, lied and hid this server and her behavior.

NOW, she wants to selectively submit the e-mails which suit her.

He must be living in a different universe. I would write, "working" instead of "living", but we know that "working" is not the case.

What it means that his true skin is popping out over the one he had to use to get re-elected. He is desperately trying to give Hillary cover on this because he is ideologically invested with her.

His partner in crime, McCain, said the same.

They don’t want to be responsible; legally.

He’s not fooling me.
