Did anyone catch "She who shall not be named " lying like a sedated rug on the PBS news hour tonight?
Wow.

Maybe someone will find a transcript or a video link...
"Beyond the Pale".
(She is ghostly pale, btw, imho, ymmv, of course )

Peace -
Murph

It's end of empire

First she says this:

You know, with respect to the handling of classified material, I take it very seriously, and the 300 or so people with whom I e-mailed on the course of my time in the State Department do as well. These are experienced diplomats. They have expertise in handling classified material. They were not careless.

and then this:

And the material that they sent to me, they didn’t believe was classified. The very, very few examples that Director Comey pointed to have also been clarified, as he accounted yesterday. The State Department has said two of the three that he had pointed to were human error. They were not to be classified.

So, I’m very proud of the work that we did over four years. And I’m very proud of our diplomats and our other professionals, who have to act in real time. They are responding to heads of state, to press inquiries. And they are doing the best they can. I do not believe they were careless. I do not believe that they sent material that they thought was classified, and certainly no finding of anything intentional was made after this investigation.

So she spent 4 years as SOS and didn't send one classified document during that time and not one person sent her any?
How in the hell could she have done her job without sending classified emails to anyone? How was classified information sent or received?
I recently read an article that she said that she was going to break up the Iranian deal because Bibi doesn't like it.
The article also stated that one of the reasons for removing Assad from power in Syria was to make Israel more safe.
If Israel needs to feel more safe from Syria and Assad l then why the hell isnt Israel doing the fighting and footing the bills instead of our troops and taxes doing it for them?
The whole Middle East clusterfuck is so that Israel can be the only super power in the region.

Off topic, but does this make sense to anyone?

HILLARY CLINTON : Well, I think President Obama has done an extraordinary job in trying to explain and provide information to anyone who’s willing to listen about the inequities and the difficulties that are being confronted by so many of our fellow Americans.
His policing commission that he put together after Ferguson, Missouri, has excellent recommendations, but not enough police departments have followed them. And I want to put money in the budget when I’m president to make it possible for every police department to implement these important reforms

So Obama put together a policing commission, but he didn't put any in any money for it? But she will and of course the GOP is going to authorize it?
Comment was edited because I got something wrong.

DAVID BROOKS: Well, I agree with both sides of Comey’s conclusion, that she shouldn’t be charged, but that, basically, the defense she has given us and for all these months was a tissue of lies, that she didn’t have one device, she sent over 100 classified things, she had multiple servers, and that her staff didn’t even look at some of the — some of the things they deleted as personal, some of the e-mails were actually business.

And so she’s told a series of falsehood. And, frankly, I thought her reaction tonight was a little off-tone, a little too defiant, when a little humility and a little contrition might be in order, given what Comey said, completely accurately.

And so, if she had real opposition, this would have been devastating for her. I don’t think it rises to the level of sort of indictable offense, but I do think it’s sobering, and should be sobering even if you love Hillary Clinton and you are a Democratic, to see someone’s claims be exposed as falsehoods so readily.

Tom P had a diary yesterday about this. If it was anyone but Trump running against her, what Comey said would have been devastating to Hillary.
That is quite a low bar to set.

This from Mark:

This is a real problem. It’s been a problem, lack of transparency and forthrightness, all the way back to the Rose firm’s billing records some 20 years ago in the White House. And I thought that there was going to be a start of almost a candor offensive, the fact that she was doing the interview with you.
And I just think it’s time for frankness and an acknowledgment that this was wrong, that they were misleading. And to me, it’s not going to go away.

And to think, we could have had a candidate that isn't looked at as being untrustworthy and has his entire career to back up what he campaigned on.
Sigh!

They do have a thing to hold over Bernie's head that may have crushed him. He has grandkids that they could threaten, maybe not the movie or house of Cards style physical harm kind of threat, but that their futures will be pitiful and hard scrabble with low wage, low hour jobs that put them on the what is left of the social safety net for subsistence level of existence. That will never climb higher if he resists any further. He has fought hard for all, but his family would be precious and a target of underhanded political dealings as we have seen, the elites at the DNC are not beyond anything with underhanded and criminal tactics.

the amount of corruption throughout government and rigging of markets to maintain the illusion of 'all is well' is overwhelming
