Mr Obama, the smartest guy in the room, doesn’t know how to keep from stepping all over an ongoing investigation.

[Fresh Wind]

When Obama’s mouth is moving, you know he’s lying.

The crime is putting classified information at risk of compromise, either willfully or by gross negligence. Whether it is compromised or not is a secondary issue.

[dynoman]

I can’t believe how nonchalant and cavalier some people are about this. Obama, Sanders, Clinton are a disgrace.

[Ann Archy]

Obama just wanted to SCARE Hillary, NOT have her in Prison.....maybe it’s getting beyond his control.....OR it’s a FAKE-OUT and he WANTS her in PRISON!!

[shalom aleichem]

Just like every other tradition and institution in this country, they wish to tear down, they want to do away with the silly notion of classification of information (unless it deals with their own dirty little secrets - like college transcripts, admission records, passport records, medical records on The One, etc.).

If you want to give her a PARDON then do it. Do not repeal or refuse to enforce the crimes she committed.

[samtheman]

Nixon declared Mason guilty in public.

Obama declared Hillary not-guilty in public.

Both were wrong to make public pronouncements as President about an ongoing criminal case/investigation.

But at least Nixon had his facts straight.

[tacticalogic]

At this point, there’s enough evidence that’s been made public that if the FBI can’t show a probable compromise of national security they’ll be seen as either incompetent or compromised.

[samtheman]

Do you think this means Obama is shutting down Biden?

[DainBramage]

Oh yeah, they have never been seen as incompetent before.

[InterceptPoint]

Obama just wanted to SCARE Hillary, NOT have her in Prison.....maybe it’s getting beyond his control.....OR it’s a FAKE-OUT and he WANTS her in PRISON!!

Here is the Obama Goal: ELECT A DEMOCRAT IN 2016.

Here are the only viable options (that we know of):
Hillary
Bernie
Joe

At this point Obama doesn't know what Joe will do or even if he could win. He probably does realize that Bernie cannot win. If Joe declines he has to go all-in for Hillary - mild slap on the hand and no indictment. If Joe is in then it's thumbs down on Hillary just enough to get her out of the race with minimum damage to his party.

There are states with Primary ballot filing deadlines starting in early November so time is running out on Joe to make his decision. This has to come to a head within the next month or so.

Obama: “I don’t think it posed a national security problem”

If you’re in the FBI leading this case, do you take this as direction?

[Hatteras]

The President sent a signal to the FBI that no matter the outcome, their investigative efforts are futile. Hopefully, unlike the GOP, they will not throw in the towel and deliver a full report and indictment and put the ball back in the President’s court. Let BO be the one to take responsibility and make a decision. It doesn’t matter what decision he comes to (we know he will pardon), only that he will be on record and held responsible.

“”(a) Whoever willfully and unlawfully conceals, removes, mutilates, obliterates, or destroys, or attempts to do so, or, with intent to do so takes and carries away any record, proceeding, map, book, paper, document, or other thing, filed or deposited with any clerk or officer of any court of the United States, or in any public office, or with any judicial or public officer of the United States, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both.
(b) Whoever, having the custody of any such record, proceeding, map, book, document, paper, or other thing, willfully and unlawfully conceals, removes, mutilates, obliterates, falsifies, or destroys the same, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both; and shall forfeit his office and be disqualified from holding any office under the United States.””

So, none of these laws are being enforced now? How about perjury, lying to federal investigators, lying to Congress, destruction of evidence, etc., etc.?

[Joe Boucher]

This jive ass punk is one worthless America hating mookabooker.

[wrench]

“disqualified from holding any office under the United States”

The game changer

Obama screwed-up bigtime....a-g-a-i-n. White House spox Josh Earnest was sent out to backtrack Obama's stupid blanket assertions that Hillary's use of a private email server "did not pose a national security problem". Obama knew this as the FBI investigates? "We don't get an impression that there was purposely efforts ... to hide something or to squirrel away information," Earnest said.

(waiting for hysterical laughter to die down)

=============================================

In Hollywood, Obama's I-Know-Nothing Act wins an Academy
Award for "Unerring Stupidity While Holding Public Office."

<><>Obama was oblivious to the Clintons jerking around US foreign policy?

<><> Obama knew nothing of Hillary and Sid Blumenthal's Libyan business interests?

<><> Obama knew nothing about the Clinton Foundation/slush fund buck-raking activities?

<><> Obama never noticed Bill Clinton trotting around the globe selling out strategic US uranium interests?

<><> Obama never noticed Clintons' eternal presidency-- using do-goodism worm his way into the confidences of foreign leaders w/ untapped reserves of gold, uranium, oil, and other valuable commodities?

<><> Obama never knew Hillary's brother got a gold-mining permit in Haiti?

<><> Obama never noticed actions OR inaction resulted in mega-donations to the Clinton Foundation?

<><> Obama never noticed Secy Hillary never e-v-e-r uttered a discouraging word e-v-e-r......as the Clinton Foundation sucked up millions from shady foreign characters.

<><> Obama was clueless that the globe-trotting Bill Clinton was raising billions on classified info?

<><> Obama was oblivious to Bill Clinton's "Eternal Presidency" stealing Obama's thunder?

Of course, Obama knew nothing about this.

Ex-President Bill goes to Moscow.

"Hahahaha. The uranium deal? US ntl security?
Hahahaha. You gotta be kidding, Vlad."

Even more troubling---and criminal: classified State Dept email was found on the Clinton Foundation servers. (But as long as Obama got his cut of the sale of classified Ntl security info...it was of no matter).

BACKSTORY In one egregiously criminal instance (one that we know of), Hillary's COS, Cheryl Mills, relayed State Dept email to the Clinton Foundation for the edification of the Clinton campaign team (who did not have security clearance)

Mills intercepting State Dept email for the Clinton Foundation was intended to aid and abet the Clintons get-rich-quick schemes....to continue the Clintons profiting off US govt information.

NOTE WELL: The cunning Clntons had it all figured out. Cheryl Mills was not an "official" State Dept employee but, as a private citizen working at state, she was privy to classified info that she could ..and did..use to benefit the Clinton Foundation (where she was also employed).

===============================================

REFERENCE Internal State Dept emails WRT African matters received by the State Dept were routinely passed on to the Clinton Foundation by then-COS Cheryl Mills (now a top honcho in Hillary's 2016 bid).

Mills forwarded State Dept emails to Amitabh Desai, the Clinton Foundation's Director of foreign policy; one such email had been originally directed to the Assistant Secy of State for African Affairs.

Mills told the Foundation's Foreign Policy Director Desai she was sharing the State Department email with him because she knew Bill Clinton was "in contact" with Paul Kagame, president of Rwanda. "[Bill Clinton] has been talking about giving Kagame a plenary role at CGI," Desai said in his response, referring to the Clinton Global Initiative.

So why would Bill offer Kagame a plenary role at the CGI?

The Congo's "Freeport Mines" (copper, gold, cobalt) is a major Clinton Foundation donor, giving between $250-500,000, according to donor records. No report, as yet, WRT the Clintons cut in the Freeport Mines.

And w/ Hillary's help, the Congolese government saw its stake in the mine climb after Hillary's State Dept conducted talks that were pumped as being "in support of Freeport Mines," the Financial Times reported 2010.(SOURCE floppingaces.net)

NOTE WELL Once upon a time, Hillary took issue w/ African govt corruption as a US Senator, but she looked the other way when the money started poring in.

You forgot one very viable alternative, in fact the only one that can hold together and even build on the Obama coalition that elected him two times and will absolutely not dismantle the Obama “legacy” .....MICHELLE

[caver]

It’s my opinion that Obama and Clinton have dirt on each other. It’s MAD. Hillary will be the nominee.
