The Obama administration told a federal court Wednesday that former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton was within her legal rights to use of her own email account, to take the messages with her when she left office and to be the one deciding which of those messages are government records that should be returned.

In the most complete legal defense of Mrs. Clinton, Justice Department lawyers insisted they not only have no obligation, but no power, to go back and demand the former top diplomat turn over any documents she hasn’t already given — and neither, they said, can the court order that.

The defense came as part of a legal filing telling a judge why the administration shouldn’t be required to order Mrs. Clinton and her top aides to preserve all of their emails.

Judge Sullivan’s response is going to be hilarious.

Yes, but what did the (in)Justice Department base their decision on?

She was well within her rights as the Foreign Minister of the Sultan to break any law deemed inconvenient.

“So .. I guess we have our answer .. she will quit the campaign; and Obama will pardon her (she thinks).”

Now, it is confirmed that Obozo and the sex fiend Clintoon worked this out when they were playing golf last month.

So when will she quit the campaign because of health problems and to be with her poor grandchild and her loving/caring hubby, the sleaze ball?

That’s probably what the golf game was all about.

If Obambi lets her go down...then he goes down. I think you’re right.

This was to be expected. Just like Robert Kraft being seen at a recent banquet with the judge who reversed Tom Brady’s 4 game suspension. (You can catch Tommy in action tonight against the Pittsburgh Stillers).
When Judgment Day arrives, just think about all the catching up God will have to do just to even up the books on all the cretans, like Obama and Clinton, Rangel, et al, who were allowed to skate in this life.

The DOJ under 0bama is the most politicized DOJ since George Mitchell.

The entire 0bama regime is lawless.
