Hillary Clinton Wasn't Adept at Using a Desktop for Email, Inquiry Is Told
NY Times ^ | May 26, 2016 | Eric Lichtblau and Steven Lee Myers

Posted on 05/27/2016 1:15:46 AM PDT by Zakeet

Hillary Clinton and her advisers have offered a series of explanations over the last year for her decision to use a private email server as secretary of state, a decision that she said again on Thursday had been "a mistake."

She did not want the inconvenience of carrying two phones, Mrs. Clinton said initially. She did not want a government account that might pull in nonwork matters, she said later. Or perhaps, an adviser has said, she simply did not want Republican lawmakers rifling through her personal emails.

Yet another explanation emerged Thursday: She was not comfortable with using a computer to read email.

The World's Smartest Woman ... needed her own server because she was too dumb to work a desktop computer!

P.S. The NY Times would appreciate it if you Freepers would not get the wrong idea that the libtard Rats are getting desperate and grasping at straws as they try to save their sinking ship.

this is latest excuse. Plea ignorance even though she sent/received thousands of emails. Noone is expecting her to know how email servers work, but using emails is easy

She isn’t that stupid! But she thinks us rubes will buy her bull$hit yet again, because collectively we have since the days these two crooked cretins were in the White House. Guess what? Thanks entirely to Donald J. Trump, even the stupidest amongst us have managed to figure out that the Clintons actually ARE POND SCUM LIARS OF THE FIRST ORDER and as a consequence are not going to vote for Hitlary!

LOL…Trump should have a field day with this: If you aren’t competent enough to use email, you aren’t competent enough to be president.

Well, you see, over her short little reign as Secretary of State, she sent and received 66,000 emails (well, email pages, that is - not individual emails).

She - and her lawyers, and ONLY her lawyers (who were not cleared for Secret, TS, SBI, No-FORN, etc clearances and handling and storage of the physical printed papers) and NOBODY ELSE but her lawyers (and of course the entire international enemy and friendly and neutral intelligence spies and hackers) - then deleted 33,000 of these emails because they were about yoga.

Weddings.

Grandbabies. Who were not born yet.

And emails to Bill Clinton. Who did not use emails.

So, in her entire “career” as Secretary of State half of her “time” was spent on
a wedding
yoga
babies
and an email to her husband. Who did not read them.

Yeah. Right. Sure. She is not lying. /sarchasm - That gaping whole between the NYTimes and the real world.

If I floated different excuses to my wife to make my lie plausible, I would get kicked by her on my rear end to to kingdom come.

Hillary is a bad liar. If you’re in trouble, stop lying!

But the woman keeps on digging instead of leveling with the American people and telling them the truth.

As I’ve noted before on here, the real issue isn’t e-mails or Hillary’s flouting government policy on the same.

The real issue is Hillary’s character or lack of it. Someone who can’t tell you the truth, shouldn’t be trusted with a job, with a relationship or with your money. That goes for all of the things Hillary wants.

Its why she must be kept out of the White House.

Only possible explanation is her not wanting to have her e-mail subject to FOIA ( freedom of information Act ) requests in the future ( as required by law!. Someone avoiding the law is BREAKING THE LAW! Hillary is a criminal!

Lest we forget, from the New York Times writer William Safire, in a January 8, 1996 essay entitled "Blizzard of Lies":

"Americans of all political persusasions are coming to the sad realization that our First Lady - a woman of undoubted talents who was a role model for many in her generation - is a congential liar. ..."

Now, after two decades on, the direction that the United States has moved shows itself very clearly. Among the poster children are the Clintons, an impotent and senile GOP, ...

The expressions "A Nation of Laws ..." or "Justice is Blind" or ... are now long dead.

Pogo was correct; Plato's guardians and the Republic failed.

The American people are that stupid.

They vote for a liar instead of sending her packing.

And if they end up electing her President, they have no right to complain when she and her cronies fleece the country for their benefit.

Its a simple issue and has nothing to do with ideology.

You have integrity or you don’t have it. We know Hillary is short-changed there.

That goes double for idiotic #NeverTrumpers willing to overlook her criminality because they can’t stand Trump.

We’re a dying country and Hillary is simply the symptom of its terminal decline.

When half of Democrats can’t stand her, that tells you all you need to know.

If her own party doesn’t trust her, why should the country?

Hillary keeps losing primary battles. There’s a case of buyers’ remorse in the Democratic Party.

And Hillary is NOT the best they could get for this election.
