Hillary Clinton Wouldn't Take an Official BlackBerry: State Department
Newsmax.com ^ | 3-12-15

Posted on 03/14/2015 7:25:09 AM PDT by afraidfortherepublic

Piling on more embarrassment for Hillary Clinton amid a row about her emails, U.S. officials revealed Thursday that during her time as secretary of state she had declined a government-issued cellphone.

Spokeswoman Jen Psaki said Clinton was "not issued a State Department BlackBerry, and that wasn't a requirement — no one is required to be issued a State Department BlackBerry."

The revelation is likely to raise more concerns about national security as well as speculation that the former first lady may have been hiding information that could embarrass her in her presidential campaign.

Clinton is at the center of a political firestorm about her use of a private email account during her four years as secretary of state, and her attempt earlier this week to douse the flames left many questions unanswered.

Clinton said Tuesday she had used her private account as "a matter of convenience" and that she did not want to carry multiple devices.

She insisted the private computer server that hosted her 60,000-plus emails during her tenure -- half of which she deemed to be official government business -- would not be handed over to the State Department or an independent body for review.

Things Hillary didn’t want are revealing unto themselves. She was obviously afraid of moles, leakers, sneakers and eavesdroppers. Things she’s all to familiar with for it to be a coincidence.

It is kind of funny watching the Oturd minions serving up Hitlery.

The sooner the name Hillary Clinton is only in the news to report that she is going before the parole board for her periodic review, the better.

If she decides to go full femtard on the administration, nuclear weapons would seem tame.

She is one dangerous animal with a loyal following of psychopaths.

Hillary doing ten to twelve at Allenwood Federal.

Bill Clinton could never dream of a better retirement package. He would be partying like it's 1994 until he dropped dead with a smile on his face.

and because she has not in the face of the evidence that a lot of this lead material may be coming from Jug Ears and his minions, I have to wonder why she has not. Could it be this is a game to make her look more centrist?

I will not be content this is not all staged till she is indicted. Remember, we are against the party known for its disinformation campaigns.

It certainly makes her look like “Going Rogue”, and not in a good way.

Note the way that this and all of the other scandals are being reported. It's being reported in a passive-aggressive tone, as if it was gossip, water-cooler type stuff. There's no 10-point font screaming newspaper headlines and continuously breaking news.

I was a toddler during Watergate, and I still remember how my parents and relatives would sit around talking about it and it was on the news non-stop.

THE REAL REASON WHY HILLARY DECLINED A DOT.GOV

Do you have any idea how hard it was back in Arkansas when I had to get rid of an entire floor
filled with Whitewater evidence against me?

I suppose some of this Obama/Clinton contretemps could be phony, but I have to think that Hillary/Huma/Saudi Arabia considered any e-mails available to Barack/ValJar/Iran as compromised, the feeling being mutual.

Soros is probably betting on both horses anyway.

I suspect this was a matter of trust. Neither side trusted the other with their emails.

They have to have “ smoking gun” evidence re her and Benghazi to be this openly against her.

Watching Barry’s “ it not my fault” technique I think this is highly probable.
