"That is not in any way agreed upon," she said. "The Obama Administration State Department disagrees. That happens all the time in the Obama Administration in these efforts to say what can go out and what can't go out. That is a part of the ordinary process in the Obama Administration."

Fixed it. I don't recall this being a problem prior to 2008.

Some of the top secret emails contained sat image files. You cannot clean those up. They just stripped the labels. We are talking over a thousand emails.

I would love to see that shrew dragged off to prison, but it won’t happen. Royalty is not held to the same standards as normal people.

Depends on the meaning of “is”.

Dear Hillary The Great,

Do you have any idea what is going on in this mess of a world you helped to create ? The IRS has been hacked. Hundreds of thousands of citizens identities stolen. The US government employee records have been hacked. Hundreds of thousands of US government employees identities stolen. ISIS has hacked and acquired personal information on thousands of US military personnel and are threatening to attack them in their homes. Obama thinks the Chinese are cyber attacking the US. Kerry thinks the Russians and Chinese are reading his secure email. How did we get here ? Did your incorrect and sloppy interpretation of classified material cause these problems ? Did your insecure personal email server contribute to these problems ?

Their were many reports of such emails. Every single one that I saw or read was speculating that there were images in some of the emails but there was never any proof.

The fact that at least one and probably many of the Clinton emails were reclassified to TS/TK where the TK stands for Takent Keyhole and infers satellite imagery certainly fueled these reports.

I don’t believe any of the Hillary emails contained classified satellite imagery either marked or unmarked.

But you could be right. If you have any links to definitive reports of classified images actually being found in the Hillary emails you should post them. I don’t think you will find them.

Department of Defense MANUAL NUMBER 5200. 45

The definitive references are not available to the public, but everyone with clearance had access to them.

“IT DEPENDS ON WHAT THE MEANING OF ‘CLASSIFIED’ IS”.

A retread of Bubba's "It depends on what the meaning of 'IS' is".

As I recall, that didn't work out too well for him, but then again, back then congress was not a bunch of corrupt lapdogs and the Press occasionally reported the facts.

Hillary is such a flipping idiot. Her own argument proves the point why all of her email should have been on a secure government server to begin with. That fact alone makes her guilty. As a government employee any and all of her work related communication at any level is government information. The risk of any information being classified is present, even if it begins with her and which could still enventually be listed as classified later. Such as she takes a phone call from the President or Secretary of Defense and based upon that conversation emails her staff that includes portions of those conversations. The State department would later see a copy of that email and classify it as top secret after the staffer copies others on the government server. Only the original email was on an unsecure server being copied by China, Russia, Iran, Uganda, etc...

I worked with classified secret and top secret information. On weekends when no person was in the government building the disc drives containing secret information were spun down and the platters and removable drives and storage devices were placed in very large combination safes and logged in an and out. You were in trouble for even having the log book signed and witnessed incorrectly. To keep track of all the database 300MB drive platters we would name them by using the first name of the playboy centerfold that month as an archive for when it was first created. It would always be a back up to the month and year as a reference.

In Hillary's case the dang server off site should have been only handled by people with security clearance to even handle the servers and back up drives. And oh where are those back drives and tapes of her server from the contracted company? Who approved and signed of on this company or did Hillary pay for this clandestinely out of her own pocket? This idiot belongs in jail along with every other person the supported or had knowledge of the activity in the State Department. America has gone insane and nuts and corrupt!

The problem is that Hillary is not only violating the law by passing classified information through that private server, but also by erasing the server, she is obstructing justice. In short, she could get hit pretty hard legally.

I understand that. I am predicting what you are likely to hear, probably in October.

What is utterly ridiculous about her statements is that she was one of only 20 US Government officials with Original Classification Authority. She should have been aware of the fact that it is not “markings” that make information classified, but content. The fact that she (presumably) couldn’t recognize classified information without classification markings is testament to her stupidity, ignorance, ineptitude and complete inability to hold any office at any level of government. (Or sell shoes, for that matter.)

IF you don't understand that, Honey, you don't have any right to get anywhere NEAR the White House...even as a cuckolded spouse.
