Psaki: Former Secretaries of State Are Not 'Standard Employees'
cnsnews ^ | March 17, 2015 | Susan Jones

(CNSNews.com) - "I don't think former secretaries are standard employees," State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki said at Monday's briefing.

She was responding to questions about Hillary Clinton's OF-109 form, the document that every State Department employee must sign when they leave the agency, certifying that they have "surrendered to responsible officials" all classified, unclassified and other work-related documents in their possession.

Departing employees also must certify that they "understand the criminal penalties relating to U.S. Government records," including the concealment, removal, or mutilation of those records.

As of Monday, the State Department still couldn't say whether former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton had signed one of those separation documents.

Can you believe that the plebes are even discussing the need to elect her royal Hillaryness?

Why should she be subjected to the indignity of an election when it should be plainly evident that we as a people would be infinitely blessed with her coronation.

The people should demand that she be hoisted on their shoulders and installed in her rightful place as the ruler of these Untied States.

And to even further inconvenience her ascendancy to her rightful place on the throne, these commoners have the temerity that she follow the rule of law, can you believe this?

We should be glad that she has deigned it okay to gaze upon her royal visage, this alone should speak volumes on her benevolent magnanimity.

People of her greatness and statue are well within their rights as our ruling class to forbid that we even look upon them with our great unwashed eyes and hear the magnificence of their melodious elucidation with our plebian auditory faculties.

Rest assured that she like all other great socialist thinkers of the storied past knows better than you and should trifler herself with the mere affairs of record keeping and accountability.

Those are the realm of serfs and slaves, not her majesty Hillary the 1st!

Her majesty, the Secretary of State, doesn’t meet with HR on her first and last days on the job.

I guess she didn’t receive any pay checks while she was SoS and is therefore not an employee.

Wow!!!!!

The EXEMPT have Super-EXEMPT above them.

In 2015, America is country of 5 tiers.

1. Royalty: The King and her Majesty and Huma
2. The EXEMPT in SCOTUS and the 114th and their
Staff who are above all Law
3. Criminal Illegal aliens
4. Lowlife Americans (’scum’ to the EXEMPT)
5. Conservatives (concentration camps on the drawing board)

A toothless law regarding cabinet-level persons, considering that Sandy Burglar was caught red-handed and got off scot-free.

“I don’t think former secretaries are standard employees,”

Yet, I bet her paycheck looks exactly like the paycheck of every other State Department employee except the amount. I bet she took an oath and signed oath papers like everyone else as ell.

I’m guessing that Petreus was not a standard employee of the CIA. What’s her point?

They piled up in a desk drawer, uncashed. All the foreign bribe money from the Clinton Foundation makes those checks chump change.

Hereafter, all persons deemed to be above the law should be addressed as “lord” or “lady”.

‘Not ‘standard’? RIGHT! They should be held to even stricter accountability!

Because they are employees of the taxpayers and they are answerable to the people who EMPLOY THEM!!!!

TRANSPARENCY

Democrats lied to voters and the media stood with them.

What she "thinks" isn't relevant.

Of course she is not “standard employee” of the tax paying public - SHE IS ROYALTY, and is in the court of Emperor Obama. This administration truly will find a place in history all right!! The most transparent administration ever, yes indeedie.

“Democrats lied to voters and the media stood with them.”

Right.

The deck is stacked and it’s been that way for a very long time.
