Where are OUR Woodwards and Bernsteins?
Michelle Obama's Mirror ^ | 8-18-2015 | MOTUS

So, Bob Woodward finds Hillary’s email predicament reminiscent of Watergate.

“So, you've got a massive amount of data in a way, reminds me of the Nixon tapes: Thousands of hours of secretly recorded conversations that Nixon thought were exclusively his.”

Oh sure: missing tapes, missing emails; I see his point.

Watergate, you may recall, began with a break-in at the DNC to steal information that might be useful for embarrassing their candidates. The real scandal involved a cover-up orchestrated by all the President’s men - unfortunately captured on tape. Nixon declared the tapes to be his personal property and refused to turn them over. Until he was forced to; and by then 18 minutes of the tape had mysteriously disappeared. By comparison, Hillary turned over 30,000 emails that she determined to be work-related and simply deleted the 30,000 she deemed to be “personal” and nobody else’s beeswax. And furthermore, she told us “there is no classified material” contained in any of those emails sent and received on her unsecured server:

(h/t: Gateway Pundit)

As with any Clinton statement however, it undoubtedly depends on the what the meaning of “is” is. Let the record reflect that with only 20% of the 30,000 emails that she DID turn over heviewed, State has currently unearthed 305 that contain classified information, some Top Secret.

Nevertheless, there’s a big difference between Watergate and Hillary’s non-scandal. Watergate was about the illegal collection of embarrassing data from the opposing party; today that’s called  “opposition research” and conducted legally by high priced consultants. Hillarygate is about the illegal sharing of top secret documents divulging State secrets, all because Hilz “didn’t want to carry 2 phones.”

So my question: if Hillary’s emails sound an alarm at least as urgent as that of the Watergate tapes, where are OUR Woodwards and Bernsteins?

Still in their pajamas I guess.

The investigating reporters are there. But, it’s a one way street with them. They investigate, but they investigate republicans a lot deeper, and then, undertake the task of making the republicans scandals into matters of dirty politics, and evil, and sleaze, and greed and dangers to the country.

On the other side, scandals are dismissed as indiscretion and mistakes.

Those investigative reporters are partisans, because, if they were to have gone after the corrupt democrat politicians as heavily as they did Nixon and other republicans, then, Clinton would never have become president and in the least, he would not have finished his first term in office, and Hillary would have been gone from party politics and government a few decades ago, and Obama would not have even been allowed to give his ‘famous’ speech at the democratic party convention which catapulted him into the national scene.

As it turns out, the democrats have been very successful at educating a media which will always protect them from scandals and crimes which would otherwise take them down. Hillary should not even be politicking, and yet, she’s being protected by the news media and her party. She should be in prison, and Bill Clinton should have been in prison decades ago, serving for high-crimes and misdemeanors, including rape, and selling sensitive national secrets to the Chinese.

This is worse than Watergate because this deals with classified and top secret material and the safety and security of our nation.

Journalism is not just about news gathering. Journalism is to advance liberalism.

Exactly so.

Began when Frankfurt School operatives infiltrated Columbia University (gee, who has schooled there?), then branched into other teaching schools, public schools, unions, media, churches.

When Obama got the second term, these Marxist-socialists had tingles all over.
