Full Title "White House calls FBI probe into Clinton's classified emails a 'criminal investigation' – to glee of Republicans – on the same day Obama endorses her"

Barack Obama's spokesman described the FBI's probe into Hillary Clinton's classified email scandal as a 'criminal investigation' on Thursday, less than an hour after the president endorsed his embattled former secretary of state to succeed him.

Josh Earnest told reporters during a White House press briefing that Obama was committed to keeping his hands off the investigation, trusting career investigators and prosecutors to follow evidence wherever it leads.

Obama would love the whole investigation to be turned over to an independent counsel. He’s laying the groundwork for it by feeding the conflict of interest with his endorsement. Under an independent counsel, the investigation could stretch on for years.

If I'm Obama, a Trump presidency makes me more powerful - highlights me more, gives me something to grip against.

I think it goes a lot further than that. If the Clintons go down, ex-president Obama takes over their role as slush-fund recipient in chief. I think we will see leaks that will damage Hillary, and Obama will count on President Trump to put her and Bill on trial. Then, he can fundraise against the GOP witch-hunt while appearing above the fray.

Yeah - it's a tough call. On the one hand, getting rid of the Clintons puts him as the king lib for the next 20 years, on the other hand, Hillary is his puppet if she's president, because we know he can choose whether to prosecute.

But I don't think O is really a lib ... he's not defined by anything he wants to build or any ideology at all... only what he wants to destroy - the west, the colonialists ... anyone with an identity - since he never had one. Probably better with Hillary out of the way. So ... I say he throws her under the bus. There is so much hatred, that having her around at all, even as a puppet ... well ... even puppets can bite the hand that controls them. Has-been convicted criminal politicians with a permanent cough ... not so much, especially since the Clintons don't carry much weight any more ...

I'm just not that good at predicting evil.

Every of 20 posts here are right on the mark; predicting evil is hard when one’s heart is not black as coal and cold as ice.

He and moochelle are that way, and their puppet master Val, and her puppetmaster, S0r0s.

They want to blame and blame and blame and complain against Trump; however, it wasn’t supposed to be Trump...I don’t think they saw that coming. Some GOPer would have caved into their every whim.

Some year ago, Rush did say 0bama may even want the GOP to win. (that was before I started to suspect Rush becoming a GOPer)

Here’s what I see: Mills’ name on the emails; I did NOT see Hitlery on them (emails at ZH, BTW).

Would Hitlery throw Mills under the bus? No need to answer that.

I also see how the MSN would conclude Mills acted alone.

Anyone able to correct anything I’ve said? I am open to correction; I don’t have all the facts, just what I’ve read.
