FBI’s Comey: Hillary Clinton not 'sophisticated enough' to understand classified markings
Washington Times ^ | July 7, 2016 | Stephen Dinan

FBI Director James Comey said Thursday that former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton may not have been "sophisticated enough" to understand the classified markings on emails she sent and received, which explains why did didn't know she was breaking the letter of the law.

Under intense questioning from Republicans, Mr. Comey said Mrs. Clinton’s public explanations of her behavior were not true. But he said his investigators couldn’t find evidence that Mrs. Clinton intended to break the law, which he said is the key to making a criminal case.

Democrats praised Mr. Comey for his findings, and blasted the GOP for demanding he testify in the first place.

"Today's hearing is political theater," said Rep. Gerry Connolly, Virginia Democrat.

>TRUMP’S ad.....FBI SAYS HILLARY IS A MORON....DO YOU REALLY WANT STUPID TO RUN THE MILITARY OR THE COPS????WHAT IF IT’S YOUR KID SHE KILLS THE NEXT TIME??????

Stupid? Hell, she got 4 people killed and ‘lost’ $6B.

If I were Trump’s camp, I’d be putting out ads “This was $6B of YOUR tax dollar ‘lost’” or, better yet, “What if it’s YOUR kids on the line when she ‘misses’ another 3AM call?”

Every 18 yr old soldier, sailor, airman and marine is presumed sophisticated enough to understand classification markings.

Comey was writing lines for the Trump Campaign:

“Hillary: Too stupid to understand secret document classifications but thinks she is ready to be the president and C.E.O. of the largest, most powerful enterprise on the planet.”

I really think people had better fully wake up and look around, we ONLY have ONE shot here, and that is TRUMP!!!

So she is not guilty because she is an idiot? I’m sure every criminal defendant would like to have that defense. If she is so stupid, then she should be disqualified from being President.

"Comey later clarified his comment to “technically sophisticated”."

Now he's parsing to protect her? Bulls*t. She is "technically sophisticated" to work numerous hand devices and have different servers. She knew what she was doing by avoiding the State Department comms. What does the Clinton's or others have on Director Comey?

This is now past any speculation of a nutjob conspiracy. It is now a true conspiracy at the highest level of the Fedgov.

so she’s that phuyquing DUMB as to not even understand what “secret” means?
she belongs in a care institution, she’s not capable of handling day to day living on her own

we have nice care homes for unfortunates like her, places where she will be safe and protected and maybe even get some remedial tutoring from compassionate grammar school teachers

She’s not sophisticated enough to understand government regulations, but she’s sophisticated enough to run the government?

“Now he’s parsing to protect her? Bulls*t. She is “technically sophisticated” to work numerous hand devices and have different servers. She knew what she was doing by avoiding the State Department comms. What does the Clinton’s or others have on Director Comey?”

From: Crisis of Character: A White House Secret by Gary Bryne: Hill’s phones and ipads, page 273-274:

Clinton said that it was too cumbersome and inconvenient for her to carry two phones. She didn’t have to have government issued nor encrypted phones. She didn’t have room for them.

Then, we learned she carried an iphone and blackberry, neither government issued nor encrypted.

Then, we learned she carried an ipad and and ipad mini.

But claimed that she didn’t do email.

Then, we learned she had email—a private server.*

But then, she claimed email was for personal correspondence, yoga and wedding planning.
Then, we learned her email contained government business as well—lots of it.

Listen, nobody transmits classified material on the internet! Nobody! You transmit classified material via a closed circuit, in-house intranet or even physically via courier.

*Not in Gary’s book, today we learned that she had 4 servers not 1 in her home!
