Did Tuesday come early this week?

Well.. she has never turned anything over to Benghazi.. nor to a FOIA request. So that answers that.

Look at it this way.. the AP is suing her. For not turning over emails.

I'm actually at work. Just a little bored. Drunk me and sober me are kinda the same thing. Either way we can both get obnoxious.

He's probably being literal; he himself has never sent an email, he just tells an aide what he wants to email and they do it.

He's a Senator! He ain't got time for that!

I don't know whether she's trying to hide anything or not, and frankly it doesn't matter- the rules are in place to maintain transparency. At the very least it just looks suspicious. Follow the damn rules.

Damn... rare agreement from me here.

Then again, this is a pretty black and white issue. I'm surprised there are some people that are not having a problem with it.

I think a lot of people have a problem with it, but here's the rub...

The people who care about this didn't like her to begin with, so that's a wash.

The people who liked her to begin with won't care about this, so that's a wash.

She didn't break any law, so there isn't any recourse in that direction.

Effectively, its a non-issue.

To follow, I think there are much greater grievances to be brought if she attempts a Presidential run.

Pretty sure waywardgs didn't dislike her to begin with... which is why I was surprised with him in this instance.

Absolutely. I don't think anyone is saying otherwise, Captain Obvious.

This is just another example of the arrogance of this individual.. believing policies are meant for everyone, but her.

That's the typical mindset of the new Monarchy, aka career politicians. Nothing to see here, move along.
