And that was the only way I could reconcile the O eligibility issue...that otherwise seemingly responsible R politicians with access to intelligence files re Hillary and her agents and likely appointees decided she presented a greater threat to the nation’s security interests than did O.
Well, Bush and Cheney had all the intelligence on Obama in 2007. They knew exactly where he was coming from and what he planned to do.
No argument; hopefully, that is a given.
However, even with that we should not be surprised to find the file filled with her activities from her college days forward and her and Bill's "known associates and contacts" (including his apparent visit to Russia), was substantially more extensive than the file they had on him.
Ergo, IMO best case for the R's, if not the only acceptable explanation for ignoring the eligibility issue, is that they coldly calculated she was a greater threat to the nation.
