Two of the Senate's top Democrats are defending a private meeting between Attorney General Loretta Lynch and Bill Clinton this week.
"She's an honorable person. We know that," Sen. Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.), expected to be the next Senate Democratic leader, told reporters on Thursday. "She has said nothing was discussed related to the investigation so you have two choices: To say this didn't matter or she's lying. I think it didn't matter. I don't think she's lying."
"All I can say is Loretta Lynch is one of the most outstanding human beings I've ever known," Minority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) said.
"No one could ever question her, her strong feelings about the rule of law and her ethics — I repeat — are the best," he added.
Their comments come after Lynch and Clinton met in Arizona, hours before the House Benghazi Committee released a report on the 2012 terror attacks in Libya. Lynch told reporters that they didn't discuss the issue.

There is not an honorable soul among them.
No they are doing the best they can to cover their asses.
“She’s an honorable person. We know that,”
That may be true but we know Clinton is not.
Sounds like Chuck needs the taste slapped out of his lying genitalia holder...
To be appointed as SCOTUS no doubt.
That would only take one sentence in between the two grandchildren discussion.
Ask yourself this....who exactly meets in a private situation....onboard a plane? This time of year in AZ, outside temp would be at 110 degrees....so they had to close the door, and run the AC unit....but why not meet in a car?
It would make me think that Bill is just there to gauge if charges will be put up before or after the convention....or if no charges will filed.
Just curious...how does Bill know her? Did she work for Bill’s administration?
Gangsters Rule... open in-your-face criminals in high places
Of course they defend it. What’s the use of having a dim lackey in charge if you can’t squash an arrest or indictment when you need to.
I don’t know anything other than this: There are two reasons that Lynch may want to speak with Bill Clinton. One is to tip him off. And the other reason is to interview him. Someone should ask point blank; Did anyone on the plane ask Bill questions relating to any investigation?
Remember that Lynch herself would not have done it. So she is probably telling the truth. But she is answering the question asked. And she is not answering the question she knows should be asked.
Did anyone on the plane give information to, or receive information from Bill Clinton in regards to any open investigation? Were there any questions asked? Were you in the presence of Bill Clinton the entire time he was on your plane? If not, who was?
Actually she worked in Bush 41’s administration.
She’s from NY, so Clinton could have run into her there.
Thinking the conversation was communicating the amount of money the Clinton Foundation has to transfer to the Obama Foundation to make this problem go away.
“If the shoe were on the other foot, the screams from the rats in DC would be so loud as to cause pain.”
Cause pain? The screams would be loud enough to shatter windows in China
It’s called an ex parte contact and it is at least unethical so that a lawyer might face discipline and sanctions.
Lynch is (purportedly) representing the people in a criminal matter alleged against Slickster’s wife.

But as Schumer says, what difference does it make? She’s honorable.
This is the democrats peeing in my ear and telling me it is raining - yet again.
Logically, there can only be two meanings for the meeting:
1. She told Billy Hillary’s getting indicted, and she can’t stop it.
2. She told Billy Hillary’s getting indicted, unless she’s getting a large payoff from the Clinton Foundation.
Yeah, another random plane just sitting on the Tarmac with its air conditioner on!
Yeah they boarded a random plane without the owners permission.
How stupid do they think we are?
Let me revise my #52 above. An ex parte contact is a contact by one side with the presiding officer of a matter in dispute, without notice to the adverse party.
Roughly stated, notions of due process require that both parties, as a general rule & with certain exceptions, be allowed to make their case to the judge.
So this is more in the category of “OK, your story is that wraith-like Bill Clinton was golfing in 100+ temperatures, and just happened to run into the US AG on her govt. jet?” from both the most transparent and the most ethical administrations ever.
Gosh, what a shock! I didn't see that coming. (Sarc)
Of course Bill recorded the conversation so he could listen to it over and over and over again
“Methinks thou dost protest too much...”
Knowing Bubba, they may not have been “talking” much. Has anyone checked her outfit for DNA...?
