Editorial: Hillary Clinton's endless lies

Boston Herald ^ | May 26, 2016 | Herald Staff

With the Clintons you can always count on one thing - it's never the crime; it's the cover-up.

For more than a year former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has insisted her use of a private email server during her tenure at State was no big deal - nothing her predecessors didn't do.

Mrs. Clinton has insisted she would "talk to anybody, any time" about the emails, adding, I've encouraged all of [my staff] to be very forthcoming."

Her three top staffers, including Huma Abedin, all refused to talk to the inspector general.

Clinton has insisted her information was secure.

The inspector general found that an adviser to Bill Clinton had to shut down the server because he believed "someone was trying to hack us. Later that day he reported "we were attacked again so I shut [the server] down for a few min."

The incident was never reported to computer security personnel at State.

And, of course, Clinton insists none of the information transmitted was classified "at the time," but today we know at least 2,000 of Clinton's messages were classified, some of them as "top secret."

So many lies, so little time. And so very much for the FBI to sort out, let's hope before November.

Clinton’s inexcusable, willful disregard for the rules

The only reason it’s “never the crime” is because she has been permitted to get away with it.

It’s NOT the cover-ups. It’s the crimes. You can’t name a non-petty crime that I can’t document beyond a reasonable doubt that either he or she is guilty of.

“kick the cancer kids out of the photo op”
and
“Get those retards out of here!”

Finally. Her chickens are coming home to roost?
Trump Trump Trump Trump Trump Trump Trump Trump!

The trail of $hit hanging off of Hillary Clinton, attached to her by decades of documented nastiness, all cemented to her ar$$ by a media who continues to try so hard to say there is not a ten mile long trail of $hit stuck on her a$$ and they are the ones who tied it there.

If you can read and comprehend over the past 25 years, the woman deserves shunning and jail time, certainly not an elected office of the people's trust.

Now we get to see if any of Hillary's staff has any integrity.

Somebody's lying, and somebody's getting thrown under the bus here.

Saw a documentary the other day that implied that Nixon would have gotten away with Watergate except for John Dean, who broke ranks and testified against his boss. I'm sure Hillary approved of that whistle-blower.

Now that she's Nixon, who will be John Dean?

[blueunicorn6]

Ladies and gentlemen, this is just the very tip of the Hillary crime iceberg.

[Little Ray]

‘No criminal intent.’

When will you folks get it?

NOTHING will ever be done, no matter how egregious Hillary!’s behavior.

[Colinsky]

Nixon would have gotten away with Watergate except for John Dean, who broke ranks and testified against his boss.

Dean was trying to deflect attention away from Mrs. Dean's side job of running a call-girl operation.

[arthurus]

There can be no criminal intent because she doesn’t believe the laws apply to her so she is not intending to violate any laws. That should be perfectly clear.

[thirst4truth]

Just wait till the D party tries to parachute Biden, over Bernies head into the convention!!!lol

[jetson]

Will the disgust for the She Devil be the uniting point between Republicans and Democrats?

[Scott from the Left Coast]

I really don’t think it matters, Hillary, Biden or Bernie or Pocahontas. Trump is surging in a decisive way...he can beat any of them.

The inspector general found that an adviser to Bill Clinton had to shut down the server on Jan. 9, 2011, because he believed “someone was trying to hack us.” Later that day he reported “we were attacked again so I shut [the server] down for a few min.”

Uh, what? The guy was under attack and he shut the server down "for a few minutes"? And then brought it back online? A server that he knew contained State Department documents? TWICE? And he told nobody?

This is criminal negligence and as unprofessional as any IT consultant can possibly be. He should hang, and if he did it because he was told to do it, whoever told him should hang. Unbelievable.

[VTenigma]

I see what you did there.

[blackdog]

I retain too much. It hurts my head. Sometimes it just jumps out.

[Rockpile]

Hillary has a Mount Everest of problems to overcome.

[Ann Archy]

Sorry, but it’s ALWAYS been the Crimes...NOT the Cover-up, except for the MEDIA doing the cover-up!

HUBRIS. . . if you recall Greek mythology. . .

I’ve been waiting a looooooooooooong time for them chickens.
Sort of like Waiting for Godot.
