The Democrat Left offers a truly pathetic defense of the Inevitable One. Hillary Just Wanted To Send Emails From Her Phone Like A Normal Person. Then The Trouble Started.
Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton’s desire to use her phone for both work and personal communications like the rest of the world has sparked a federal investigation and controversy that may likely set the tone for her campaign — and serve as a warning to the prevailing nominee.
You see, she just wanted the convenience of using her phone email, and those Republican meanies are making a big deal out of it! Probably because she’s a woman.
You gotta wonder, do they even believe this crap themselves? Or, do they simply count on the Democrat base of selfish low-information voters who don’t care how venal and corrupt their leaders are as long as they keep filling the trough?
Reason magazine has it right; Hillary could strangle and consume a live puppy-dog on television and Dems would still support her. It’s ironic that her path to nomination is (slightly) imperiled not because she committed felonies, peddled influence to foreign countries, lied about it and tried to cover it up… but because a pure Marxist is running and promising even more free sh-t than she is.
Update: Someone looked up the author’s Twitter feed. She actually may be stupid enough to believe the crap she writes:
I’ve come to the conclusion that they play the odds. Especially now, that they have a sympathetic press on their side. Yes, some people won’t buy it, but enough simply won’t hear about it to make a difference.
I weep for our nation.
Let’s pretend that this is true: HRC just wanted to send emails like everyone else.
If former senator and SecState fails to understand the need for security when handling certain material then she’s really too stupid for this job. She’d be too dumb to work in any private sector HR department or physician’s office.
Since she’s not stupid, I lean towards blatant influence peddling and criminality.
Of course, to lefties, malfeasance, corruption, and criminality aren’t problems as long as “it’s for the cause”.
And, per Craig in #1, there are people for whom it’s not a problem. This is one reason conservatives are failing: we’re just not sleazy enough.
There’s no doubt in my mind that foreign governments have copies of everything that passed through HRC’s email server. If she’s elected, she will be owned 100 percent by some number of hostile governments.

Seriously even lame stream TV shows have been carrying water for HilLIARy trying to provide alternate explanations for her scandels in their stories.
Releated to that a somoli moslem in Maine beheaded a x-tian but the cornor sealed the autopsy from the press for a week.

You know, with the MFM (what does the F stand for, anyway? Inquiring minds want to know) carrying water for Hillary…
…and carrying water for Planned Parenthood…
…and carrying water for John Kerry’s diplomatic stupidity…
…and carrying water for “Hands up; Don’t shoot”…
…and carrying water for the EPA…
It’s a wonder they haven’t been crushed under the weight of a swimming pool of water they are carrying.
Trump has the right meme; Gen. Patreaus was destroyed for far-less than Hillary has already admitted to, so why is she still running.
Mother-f**king Media
Oh a different subject, I wonder what would happen if bakers were to stop doing wedding cakes direct to the public, and does them only under the radar for churches they have a contract with.
It might be the only way they can get around this until the gaystapo decides to force their morality on the churches themselves.
That might be the easiest way out of the current morass. Simply create a private club or organization for wedding planning.
Paid membership gives one entre to the club and its benefits, such as ‘discounted’ prices on wedding cakes, party favors and the like. Since it’s a “members only” entity, services provided are private and thus not public, and presumably not covered under public accommodation laws.
After all, in many jurisdictions this is how bathhouses which are closer to adult-oriented amusement parks than facilities enabling good hygiene are able to stay in business without running afoul of vice laws.
Not that most who buy into the “poor Hillary!” narrative will choose to care, but this is a story in which one truly has to consider the source. Not ditzy Ms Williams particularly, but the publishing organization, ThinkProgress.
ThinkProgress = unit of Center for American Progress
Center for American Progress = founded by John Podesta
John Podesta = longtime Clintonista, and, surprise! Hillary Clinton’s 2016 campaign chairman
This story is nothing more than campaign propaganda. There are fewer tenths-of-degrees of separation here than if the Heritage Foundation’s blog defended something that Mitt Romney did in the 2012 campaign.
The real sin will be if future propaganda is also presented as a unbiased and unconnected opinion piece—and also unchallenged by other media sources.
