His [mis]behavior involved suborning perjury and obstruction. Not trivial matters, especially for the chief law enforcement officer of the United States. People (c/s/w)oulda understood that, and did not. So I don't think we can be terribly optimistic about their capacity to understand the crimes involved here.
Four dead in Benghazi and our children and grandchildren at risk because of her greed.
And yet we now know that Trey Gowdy and the Benghazi committee have sat upon smoking gun evidence for over a year. If people can understand the difference, why can't their representatives?
To the young, stupid, star-struck welfare crowd, Hillary is golden.
NIXON was pardoned PENDING INDICTMENT for ALL offenses against the United States. This would fit perfect for Hillary. The “charge”, not the pardon.
Nixon hadn’t been indicted when Ford pardoned him - it was on the horizon. We want to see Hillary INDICTED BEFORE November. That’s what we need to pray for. In a perfect world, it would be before the convention but we could be thankful for small favors....She is sure acting pretty cocky about NEVER having charges brought against her.
“”There were no historical or legal precedents to guide Ford in the matter of Nixon’s pending indictment. In the end, he decided to give Nixon a full pardon for all offenses against the United States in order to put the tragic and disruptive scandal behind all concerned. Ford justified this decision by claiming that a long, drawn-out trial would only have further polarized the public.””
“”And yet we now know that Trey Gowdy and the Benghazi committee have sat upon smoking gun evidence for over a year””
Really? And what would that be?
She’ll wake up with a heavy 3 day growth of beard, honk a big loogie back, cut a big fart, puke on her shoes, light a cigarette, then ask “what took you boys so long?”

Sorry, but you are forgetting that Bill was always the much better POLITICIAN than she was, and saw things in political terms. She was the better LAWYER, and saw everything in legal terms... and still does.
He knew the public would forgive and forget, remember that his approval ratings went UP in the aftermath of the original news break.
She insisted on the legalize approach
So -- like Web Hubbell -- Susan Rice, Huma Abedin or some other flunky will take the rap, and that will be the end of the story.
Neither the FBI nor the DOJ are going to continue to doggedly pursue Hillary in an attempt to get her to commit a process crime the way they did with Scooter Libby [they were actually after Karl Rove.]
NOT going to happen. Those who think it will are dreaming. Those who think James Comey is anything other than a bought-and-paid-for company man are dreaming as well.
Deny, ridicule, obstruct. The press has her back.
Lying to FBI is a felony
Exactly, this what sent Martha Stewart to the big house, not selling her stock as many believe.
The problem is, if the emails led to info on the CGI, and that shows she and Bill made the improper $ profits from her actions, no one can take the rap for that but her.
Chris Wallace just said in his interview with Obama to air Sunday, Obama said his decision about Hillary’s future will be a legal decision not a political one. That means the decision will be political.
Judicial Watch's version of the email, recovered under FOIA, is heavily redacted. But once it made its appearance, the Benghazi Committee admitted they have had an uncensored version for over a year.
why do you need a quid pro quo on national security violations? The quid pro quo is in the russian uranium deal. You can never prove intent if people don’t tell you, but you can certainly find a federal regulation which says the sec of state can’t take money from russians whom she recommends be given uranium rights. Sounds ike a big abuse of power, bribery in the face of it, conflict of interest.
Please everyone, stop. I am worried about the future mental crack up that will hit many of my conservative friends.
The simple fact of the matter is that laws are for the little people. The elite are not the little people. The laws are what allow the elite to control the little people, not vice a versa.
Hillary will slide out of this. The fix is in. This is kabuki theatre of the highest order. My bet is that it unfolds like this. We have been suckered by the reports of how seriously the FBI is taking this investigation, how principled Comey is, how thorough the investigation is, etc. FOX has either wittingly or unwittingly served to spread this propaganda. Why? So that when the FBI, not Lynch, but the FBI announces they have found no wrongdoing, all the reporting about how thorough and unbiased their investigation was will lend gravitas to the clearance of the elite in question.
“Hey y’all,” she will say “FOX admitted how serious the FBI investigation was, how unbiased it was, how above board it was and THEY CLEARED ME.”
My point is this, the fix is in from the start. The FBI is like all things attached to the regime, politicized.
But hey, why not try for that football again Charlie Brown? We can trust Lucy this time.
True.
She was the better LAWYER, and saw everything in legal terms...
Doubtful. We have no reason to believe she is/was a good lawyer at all. Just a claim by the collaborationist press to that she was brilliant (at everything.) Nothing in her career has ever verified that.
He knew the public would forgive and forget, remember that his approval ratings went UP in the aftermath of the original news break.
I believe you will find that this claim is untrue. Morris and Clinton conducted polls in the immediate aftermath, and determined that if the truth came out immediately Clinton would be destroyed.
This is why I find your claim dubious, at best. If you remember the Clinton Presidency, he did nothing -- ever-- without conducting a poll. When Dick Morris says that they did a lot of research before making the decision, I believe that, and I do not believe that any cadre of insiders made that decision on Bill's behalf. Hillary was certainly involved. But if the decision was made by any group larger than the two Clinton's, Morris, and one or two other very close political advisers it would be very surprising and unusual.
And I do NOT believe Bill would ever have allowed his political instincts to take a back seat to Hillary's legal ones. EVER.
“Call Obama, who will call it a political year with hunt, issue a pardon, and say he is healing the nation and not letting this hijack the political process.”
I may not be remembering correctly, but isn’t there a review process for presidential pardons, and that there is a way to prevent/invalidate them?
