Hillary Clinton to Address Email Controversy
Politico ^ | Monday, March 9, 2015 | Glenn Thrush and Gabriel Debenedetti

Posted on 03/09/2015 1:15:56 PM PDT by kristinn

Hillary Rodham Clinton will soon address the controversy over her use of a private email account at the State Department, and is likely to hold a press conference in New York in the next several days to answer reporters’ questions, according to three people close to the potential Democratic frontrunner.

The decision to address the issue, made in the last several days, comes amid a cascade of criticism following New York Times and Associated Press stories in the past week, reporting that Clinton had possibly violated State Department policy by channeling her emails through a private server housed in her suburban New York mansion. The pressure on Clinton has ratcheted up as critics, including some congressional Democrats, have called on her to publicly address the reports. That pressure only increased on Monday as a spokesman for President Obama told reporters that Clinton and the president had, in fact, exchanged emails using Clinton’s private email account during her tenure ay Foggy Bottom from 2009 to 2013.

She’s going to address it like Norton addressed the golf ball in The Honeymooners. Hello email.

How can this be true, Obama said last week he did not know about the private emails until he read it in the newspaper?

My first take is that Hillary is having a gut(she seems to have a lot of this/that) feeling this is her personal Watergate experience and that what has worked for her over the years, duplicity and lies, can be repeated again to get her off the hook.

Senior State Department staff need to be on the hot seat as well, including the Chief Counsel, the Chief Information Officer, the SOS’s Chief of Staff, and the senior person in charge of IT and communications security. (I don’t know exactly what the titles are at State, but someone will have those functions.) HRC didn’t just do this behind the curtain. A considerable number of people at State would have been knowledgeable about the Secretary’s email, and should have objected.

Choose your HRC excuses below:

1. What emails?
2. It wasn't me.
3. It was someone who looked like me.
4. It depends on what your definition of "email" is.
5. I'll get you, my pretty... and your little dog, too!!

The first question to ask is “were the emails exchanged with Obama in what you turned over to the State Deparent?”
