'Born classified': Hillary Clinton's best argument in the email scandal just got destroyed
Reuters ^ | 21 Aug 15 | Unknown

NEW YORK (Reuters) - For months, the U.S. State Department has stood behind its former boss Hillary Clinton as she has repeatedly said she did not send or receive classified information on her unsecured, private email account, a practice the government forbids.

While the department is now stamping a few dozen of the publicly released emails as "Classified," it stresses this is not evidence of rule-breaking. Those stamps are new, it says, and do not mean the information was classified when Clinton, the Democratic frontrunner in the 2016 presidential election, first sent or received it.

But the details included in those "Classified" stamps — which include a string of dates, letters and numbers describing the nature of the classification — appear to undermine this account, a Reuters examination of the emails and the relevant regulations has found.

The new stamps indicate that some of Clinton's emails from her time as the nation's most senior diplomat are filled with a type of information the U.S. government and the department's own regulations automatically deems classified from the get-go — regardless of whether it is already marked that way or not.

Hillary is convinced that all Americans are inferior to her intelligence and that they will believe her when she states that she used a Ouija board to handle secret communications. Her backup position is that she highly proficient in channeling.

After listening to 2 security experts discuss how levels of security exist and are separate at the SoS (and similar governmental agencies), the investigators should be looking into the actual ‘connection’ set up of Clinton’s server.

Based on the commentaries of those 2 security experts, the set up would have had to be massive-for-home-use. It was much, much, much more than plugging a laptop into a modem and dialing up the SoS server.

This video is a MUST HEAR.

Since she did not use a government server, or any other server, the only remaining possibility for her to be innocent is that the Secretary of State did not send or receive ANY classified information during her entire term.

In fairness, there's verbal briefings and meetings, and paper documents.

IMO, we ALL know that if we were really a ‘nation of Laws’, the whole house-of-cards would fall down tomorrow.

Hence, this, like everything else kebuki theatre has touched, will languish until public opinion turns to ‘Eh’, and quietly die on the vine.

Sure, but some data requires immediacy. Like, for instance, a satellite photo showing the situation in Benghazi. And she's not always in a secure location where she can be handed a printout that did come off a secure server.

One of the things she brags about regarding her tenure as SecState is the millions of miles she traveled, and the scores of places she visited. Surely she would have needed email access at many points along the way.
