NY Times: As Democrats Gather, a Russian Subplot Raises Intrigue (new DNC talking points alert)
NY Times ^ | July 24, 2016 | David E. Sanger and Nicole Perlroth

An unusual question is capturing the attention of cyberspecialists, Russia experts and Democratic Party leaders in Philadelphia: Is Vladimir V. Putin trying to meddle in the American presidential election?

Until Friday, that charge, with its eerie suggestion of a Kremlin conspiracy to aid Donald J. Trump, has been only whispered.

But the release on Friday of some 20,000 stolen emails from the Democratic National Committee’s computer servers, many of them embarrassing to Democratic leaders, has intensified discussion of the role of Russian intelligence agencies in disrupting the 2016 campaign.

The NY Times wants you Freepers to believe that the Russians are taking down Cankles because she is soooo honest that she can't be bought ... and the Times hopes that you are stupid enough to forget the Clinton Foundation ... the $20 million bribe for the sale of U.S. uranium ... Whitewater ... cattle futures ... jobs for Chelsea ... and a few other minor ethical lapses!

Why would the Russians want to prevent Hillary Clinton from being elected when they have so much black mail leverage over her that she would be a virtual rubber stamp for Vladimir Putin if she becomes President.

So much for the recharge... oops!

Yeah, Hillary and her minions are now blaming Russia.

This is the gang that can’t shoot straight.

Yes. A typical dim excuse. I heard this on the top of the hour news. Not only did the Ruskies hack the email, they altered and forged them to make the dims look bad, all because Putin doesn’t like the smartest woman in America.

“But researchers have concluded”

They are just making stuff up.

They didn’t even know they had been hacked.

No, the NY Slimes doesn’t care one bit what FReepers believe.

It does enjoy the fact that nearly all of the MSM, officialdom, and public are so dishonest, ignorant, and/or naive that just about any spin they care to peddle will go over easily.

The FSB would rather not have their Manchurian Candidate.

Sounds believable, alright.

Right. The only person with Russian connections is Bernie, who spent his honeymoon in the old Soviet Union and was probably a Russian asset.

They keep peddling lies.

And Washington Post warns us Trump is too dangerous to be elected President.

Yeah, sure.

If the NY Times speculates without a shred of evidence that a Putin and Trump partnership initiated these leaks, well, it must be true. /s

Hillary’s camp is attacking the opposition to distract from the content in question! It worked with Ken Starr. Given the electorate is much dumber than 20 years ago, it might just work again.

From Whitewater, to Benghazi to her e-mail server and now Wikigate - there’s a consistent skein running through Hillary’s career:

She’s always been lucky. And there are still more damaging e-mails waiting to be dumped.

Today’s freak show should be quite entertaining, indeed.

MORE LIBERAL MISDIRECTION


The real story is, Hillary said while she was denying her husband was having Pizza and Sex parties with young Interns, is the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy to get me and my husband.

She never apologized for that lie.

On Sunday morning, the issue erupted, as Mrs. Clinton’s campaign manager, Robby Mook, argued on ABC’s “This Week” that the emails were leaked “by the Russians for the purpose of helping Donald Trump” citing “experts” but offering no other evidence.

And more emails to come, heheh -it's going to be pop corn every night now.

Its not about sex.

Its about poor security practices and arrogance bordering on the pathological.

Keep in mind these are the folks hysterical over Trump’s description of an America in quaqmire.

Looks like the Democrats are wallowing in it.

many of them embarrassing to Democratic leaders

Pretty sure there's a good bit of embarrassing material for the DNC's enablers in the media, as well.
