Ambassador Kennedy used private email, watchdog says

Ambassador Caroline Kennedy and senior staff at the U.S. embassy in Japan used personal email accounts for official business, an internal watchdog report said Tuesday -- making Kennedy the latest Obama administration official to run afoul of email security guidelines.

The State Department’s Office of Inspector General (OIG) report said it received reports concerning the use of private email accounts for official business, and identified instances where emails labeled "sensitive but unclassified" were sent from or received by personal email accounts.

Hmmmm. Well, first 'ambassador' and caroline kennedy shouldn't be used in the same sentence. Unless the sentence is to prison. Anyway, concerning the current assclowns in charge, maybe we missed something like a memo or decree or directive letting/authorizing all these jerks to use private accounts at their leisure. Or is it just standard operating procedure for the state department now. Has anybody looked to see if lurch is using a private account?

My take is that she is more dumb than corrupt. A liberal airhead with a famous name.

Camelot. Where are you? LOL! Never believed in that crap anyway. I’m sure there are still lots of older folks with portraits of jf’nk hanging in the dining room. :>} Of course he was probably more of a republican than the ones currently “representing” us today.

My take is she’s part of the “everybody does it” excuse.

Either prosecute or open it up to all government employees.

“Everybody does it”... excellent point.

Except, she’s probably been doing it for years, and didn’t just start. “Cool, I’m an ambassador.”

Looks like it’ll be #2 since “they” aren’t interested in prosecuting anybody. Unless of course it’s the whistle blowers.

She’s a Kennedy — she’s above the law. She’s royalty, after all.

Caroline learned directly from her parents (as we all did ) how to think and act in this life from our parents. It is the foundation of our thinking. Of course we add to it or turn a bit aside as we live/ experience life. etc.

God is good, let us thank Him for his loving kindness, tender mercies, and for His Son Jesus, leaving us with the SCRIPTURES in the HOLY BIBLE! and His plan of SALVATION. In JOY!

Let us PRAISE Him DAILY!

Agree.

However, try as the detractors working either overtly or covertly for Hillary might, you can’t equate putting unclassified but sensitive material in a private email with stripping top secret/sci/keyword information markings from intelligence documents and circulating it on an unsecure personal server.

During my career, we were constantly reminded that use of private email for business was strictly forbidden. Never would have even thought to conduct company business on my private email account. Guess that doesn’t apply to some ‘special’ people.

Anyone working for a SRO or company in the wecurities business is prohibited from using personal email for business - it's mandated by......the government. The same government that could care less that national security content is emailed around on private servers and personal accounts, Oh the hypocrisy and double standards. This is liberalsism, a ruling elite with no laws and everyone else.
