You're acting more like a spoiled tactician than a discussion forum poster.

It's clear she did what others did with her use of private email - it should have been wrong for anyone. But, it wasn't for her SOS emails.

I also don't expect you to deliver any perspective regarding the corpmedia's motivation in how they are choosing to handle these emails given the way they handled the story of MILLIONS of Bush's WH emails that were deliberately DESTROYED.

Not buying your BS labeling of me as a RWer - reeks of desperate deflection.

Only far right wing conservatives or libertarian Waterbuddha fans go to left forums posing as progressives so they can attack Democrats under cover. Sure sign is that while they are pointing out flaws in Democrats, they persistently avoid applying perspective or comparisons with Republican crimes of office and against the constitution.

We've been aware of the tactic since Nixon's Republican operatives infiltrated Vietnam Vets Against the War.

Same as it ever was.
