Huma Abedin to be Clinton's Secretary of State, Say Wiki-leaked Emails

As President, Hillary Clinton will appoint Huma Abedin as Secretary of State. This according to leaked e mails between Abedin, Mrs. Clinton, and Clinton's former chief of staff Cheryl Mills.

Abedin, 40, would be the first Moslem Secretary of State, and One of the Youngest Ever. She would not, however, be the first foreign born Secretary of State. Henry Kissinger, 94, has that distinction, having been appointed by Richard Nixon.

Huma Mahmood Abedin, 40, served as vice chairwoman of Hillary Clinton's 2016 campaign for President. Prior to that, she served as the deputy chief of staff to U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton from 2009 to 2013.

ABedin parlayed a 1996 Whitehouse internship into a role as Mrs. Clinton's Right Hand Man, or Woman.

Do you really think it’s all about money? Money she likely gets from all sides. She was raised by devout Muslim parents who trained and her siblings for their life work. What do you think was the family motivation to get her a position in the White House? They all had plenty of money to start with and still do. As we all now see with the information that has come out, the money seems to have gone to the Clintons, not from them. Yes, they could blackmail the Clintons, but not to get money, but to get classified information and U.S. policies to Islamist liking to support the the cause of the Caliphate.

So linking to a MSM news article isn’t good enough anymore?

"Good enough" for whom? I guess that depends on who you are. Good enough for YOU or good enough for the author of this piece?

If you're the author of this piece, then yes, it isn't "good enough." The article states definitively:

As President, Hillary Clinton will appoint Huma Abedin as Secretary of State. This according to leaked e mails between Abedin, Mrs. Clinton, and Clinton's former chief of staff Cheryl Mills.

Says WHO? The reader should be asking where the heck the link to that "leaked email" is that was "between Abedin, Mrs. Clinton, and Clinton's former chief of staff Cheryl Mills." It's either lazy journalism or it's a fabrication.

The MSM regularly cites anonymous sources along with each other as acceptable. This article cites the wiki emails, there is no actual link, unless you want to link to all of the emails. What is the level of proof for Free Republic now?

So, you're telling me that you're okay with just taking the word of Stan Greene of the Santa Monica Observer that there is a leaked email floating around in cyberspace somewhere that states, "As President, Hillary Clinton will appoint Huma Abedin as Secretary of State" ?

A good start for Stan, who surely wants the reader to appreciate his good journalism, would have been to reference a variant of at least one of the following URLs:
https://twitter.com/wikileaks, or
https://www.wikileaks.org/dnc-emails/

Are you Stan? Because you really seem to be taking my FReeper belief system personally, especially considering we are both anonymous web surfers who don't know each other. Perhaps you have an ex-wife named Nita? I'm at a loss here. Perhaps it's because I pointed out a negative of the article without first thanking your for your time in posting it? (Thank you for posting this article.)

I'll be dropping in occasionally all day, so since you're insistent on not letting me have my own opinion of what I choose to believe as good, solid journalism, here's a summary of my questions:
1. Are you okay with taking "Stan Greene's" word for the existence of this email?
2. Are you Stan Greene?

And just to show you that I'm not like your ex-wife, ex-husband, nosy liberal neighbor, or hated co-worker with sardine breath, here's an option for you:

3. If you don't feel like answering #1 and #2, just answer this #3: Will you agree to let me make my own decisions about what constitutes "good, solid journalism?"

#4. If you don't feel like answering #1 and #2, and you can't agree to say "yes" on #3, then how about a #4? Can you agree to let me make my own decisions about what I choose to believe on the Internet?

Got it? To continue this inane and very insane conversation, you can either answer:
a. 1 AND 2, or
b. 3, or
c. 4
