Never heard of the NSD at the DOJ but here it is.Daily Caller
If that is your best authority for tea leaves not boding well for Hillary, her supporters have nothing to worry about.
And I will be laughing all the way to the bank after you pay our $100 bet when Hillary clinches the nomination without Obama endorsing either her or Sanders.It always funny when Squisy questions the sources that other use.

I do not doubt that every political lever will be pulled to save Hillary, but you shouldn't doubt how disgusted and angry the entire Intelligence Community is and how absolutely thorough they are being. They are passionate about finding everything hidden under every stone. If you have political blinders on, you can't see that there's a process that is going to bite hard when it's told to stay. She made huge mistakes and quite possibly violated laws. If she did it will be discovered. If she did she will be forced to own up or lie under oath. And the Intelligence Community will publically cry out and release every detail if she is let off for politics.squistion said:Daily Caller

Dude, I heard this constantly in the 90s during the Ken Starr investigations, "An indictment for Hillary is coming down any day now!" but for the Hillary haters the end result was always:
Wow gotta goPhil Elliott said:
at Obama comparing Sanders to George Bush.
Doesn't sound too private.
Really? It was true, wasn't it? Bush was the guy people want to sit down and have a beer with, while the perception of Al Gore was that he was aloof and elitist.Wow gotta go
That's what you think of Bernie Sanders. Ok I'm gonna say that's an unfair, inappropriate and insulting comparison. Amazing what goes on.
Sorry, that wasn't what I meant. Being authentic does not necessarily translate to being a good leader and that was the basic analogy/premise I was following. Ralph Nader came across as sincere and real also, but would have not made a good president.
What a tenuous connection. So Sanders and Bush aren't #### politicians and that somehow makes them comparable.
I doubt Obama meant they were fully comparable, just that being down to earth doesn't always correlate with good leadership. We can't get him to clarify his off the record comments quoted from a second hand source, so we don't really know what exact point he was trying to make.
Not THAT kind of endorsementPhil Elliott said:Not publicly endorsing but...squistion said:And I will be laughing all the way to the bank after you pay our $100 bet when Hillary clinches the nomination without Obama endorsing either her or Sanders.
Obama telling donors to unite behind Hillary
Not THAT kind of endorsement
I'm not backing Sanders because I want to sit down and have a beer with him. I'm backing him because I want to leave a doctor's visit under single-payer, go pick up my niece from publicly-funded post-secondary education, and drive the way home over the bridge that hasn't fallen down because it's been properly restored to full working order so I can go into my kitchen and get a glass of water that isn't full of lead and turn on my television that isn't underwater because global climate change hasn't yet sunk Louisiana.
Not meant that way, but how else is he going to say something positive about a liar?Wow gotta go
I take Bush over sanders, we be taxed to death under the Berm, and why should I pay for everyone's college. You want a free education join the Army and do something to earn it.Wow gotta go
She is not very Presidential ... unless we are grading on a curve (comparing her to her likely opponent in the general). Grading on a curve is how elections work, though.
With this sort of logic, it appears you're consistent if anything, so there's that. Not a big fan of the public school system?? Why not draw the line at 10 years?
Another not-so-subtle Presidential political shot across the Justice Department's bow...Wow gotta go
Yeah! I'm tired of my tax dollars going to other people's education. You're telling me I have to pay for some spoiled little punk kid to go to kindergarten to learn how to write, and he gets nap time AND recess?!?! On my dollar!??! Join the army and earn it you little punk!
No parallels. She mishandled classified information and it's a very big deal. Those who understand the impact understand that this is not some external conspiracy. But happened and it's very likely she lied and that those lies obscured substantive offenses. At the least, best case, she's on extremely shaky ground and your sense it's going to blow over is zany.
I'm actually right of Limbaugh & conservative to the max. I agree with some of what you said with maybe a few caveats. Not many, but a few. Thank you & Happy St. Pat's.
And if in the end the report states that despite looking under every stone there was no signs of any wrong doing or even any significant level of incompetence will those in the Intelligence Community say "our bad" ? Are you even capable of imagining such an event?
We have met the enemy and they are us.
We already know there was a significant level of incompetence. Having the server at all is a significant level of incompetence. Having it completely unsecured for a stretch of time is an unforgivable level of incompetence.
Conversely we have been hearing this would go away quickly since the first week of March 2015.
I find it doubtful given that there has been enough cause to assign 100-150 agents full time just in the FBI to the case. I find it implausible that that effort, which was not politically motivated -- but instead instigated by a threat to National Security will conclude that there was no wrongdoing.
With every passing day it seems even more unlikely to me that there is anything of importance. I think - The emails largely contained original content which falls under the categories which could be classified but were still perfectly legitimate in a non secured setting to perform the more important task of keeping key people informed. The information was not copied from other systems, it never had markings, and it was Hillary's call - not that of the "intelligence community" as to its status during her tenure at State. But, because it fits into the categories that could be classified it is now being marked as such before being made public for FOIA request. Something that happens everyday.
Looks like the pushback continued but then by March Hillary relented.
One other thought on this - the age of electronic communication and data storage is very different. Hillary seems to be playing by old rules.
Always liked this one.
