In my line of work, on rare occasion I have sent email to myself to document something. Sometimes I write the email using handwritten notes that I had taken from the meeting; then the notes are shredded. But this would be done within a day of the meeting; as you say - it is harder to remember 15 days later and one might be tempted to include facts (subsequently known) or “thoughts” that were never discussed at the meeting.

So yes, 15 days after the meeting raises suspicion. One would need to see her work habits and other emails. For example, I would look at whether she wrote other self-emails about conversations that included BHO, how soon they were written after the meeting. Consider also it would be unusual to write an email to oneself when one knew that they would not be part of the next administration . . . perhaps in hours from the actual writing. Why would she still thinking about that meeting 15 days after it occurred and she was going out the door? Finally, Benghazi should come back to “haunt” (impeach) her on this issue - her (lack of) credibility and tendency to lie on official government matters has already been established.

For example, I would look at whether she wrote other self-emails about conversations that included BHO, how soon they were written after the meeting.

An excellent point. Her e-mail wasn't contemporaneous, nor was it done while she was still in office. It reeks and isn't worthy of a defense, even in quest of being "fair and balanced."

“Why would she still thinking about that meeting 15 days after it occurred and she was going out the door?”

And why would she do it 15 MINUTES after she was no longer employed by the White House? I wonder if there’s any legal significance to that.

Beautifully said, if I may add.
