Clinton camp opposes special prosecutor for emails
Washington Examiner ^ | July 3, 2016 | Sean Higgins

Posted on 07/04/2016 12:05:28 PM PDT by Zakeet

A key Hillary Clinton supporter on Sunday rejected the idea of appointing a special prosecutor to investigate the former secretary of state's private emails, and said the investigation has not been compromised despite Attorney General Loretta Lynch's private meeting with the candidate's husband, Bill Clinton, last week.

Rep. Xavier Becerra, D-Calif., said repeatedly on "Fox News Sunday" that Bill Clinton's meeting with Lynch was just a "chance encounter" and therefore didn't require Lynch to recuse herself. The attorney general has said she would follow the advice of career prosecutors at the Justice Department, he noted.

"Why stop that process?" Becerra asked. "Just because you have a chance encounter with Bill Clinton, you don't throw that away."

The probe is apparently close to wrapping up.

Maybe she’s afraid that the Special Prosecutor would be someone that she doesn’t have a file on.

Th meeting between Lynch and ‘Slick Willie’ was not accidental, or coincidental
especially with the security entourage of both political dignitaries.

As they say, once is an accident.
Twice is a coincidence.
Three times is enemy action.

No one knows for sure what occurred and what was talked about, or what was discussed, except for what the respective bureaucrats have publicly stated; one is a proven, and impeached liar, and the other is a professional political enabler, and neither has a record of honesty in support of their oath of office.

I expect Congress to call Lynch up to the hill to explain that meeting. It's their constitutional duty to do so.

I expect it will be quite soon-just guessing. Watch the Rats, led by the CBC, stage a sit in outside the hearing room and call Republicans racists and woman haters during the process. Should be popcorn worthy.

You’d think there was at least one “lawyer” out there that would file an ethics charge against “LA Lynch”!

Just a "chance encounter".The chance encounters I have typically last for a minute or two,don't take place in a private aircraft,and don't involve a person supervising the criminal investigation of a close member of my family.

But that's just me I guess.

“Just because you have a chance encounter with Bill Clinton, you don’t throw that away.”

BECAUSE... Lynch is just a normal, middle class working stiff who got the chance to meet Bill Clinton for the first time.

BECAUSE... Most people have to pay the Clinton’s $250,000 to get to meet with Bill.

You don't really think she'll be indicted I hope.The best thing that can happen is...it will soon be announced by Lynch that "there's nothing to see here,move along now" and soon after that one or more senior people in the FBI and/or DOJ will resign publicly stating that they're convinced that the fix was in.

Trump can run with that from now until November.He can run with this even without the resignations but much less effectively...the Clinton Crime Family would be able to effectively fight back (fighting dirty,of course) in such a case.

People say that if the Navy fired a missile at TWA800, that NO ONE could keep that quiet.

Bill met Loretta at a BUSY AIRPORT in front of hundreds of potential witnesses, and yet NO ONE can tell us the TAIL NUMBER of the plane sitting on the ramp area that they had their meeting in, even though we live in an age where almost everyone has a CAMERA on their PHONE.

That's what BillyBob offered Lynch.It's Spanish for "silver or lead".Mexican drug cartels make this offer to cops,judges,etc...."you'll get silver if you help us but if you refuse you'll get a few ounces of lead".

indeed- - the lack of evidence does not necessarily mean something didn't happen or that something doesn't exist. Remember this point everyone the next time you argue about UFO's with a debunker
