The Official Hillary Campaign Machine

It wasn't an implication - he said there was a "serious leak of classified info."

I hadn't heard that. The fact that she had stuff on a personal server is egregious, I don't disagree. But I hadn't heard the we "knew" of a "serious leak". Those are two different things.

As far as her intentionally or accidentally doing it - I suppose that's debatable. Depending on where one sits it dictate what one sees. Personally, I don't believe that kind of opsec stupidity (intentional or not) should be eligible to hold a secret clearance.

Releasing information to a person without a clearance is a "serious leak."

And if this lawyer dude doesn't have a clearance, it certainly applies.

Ever heard of Sydney Blumenthal? He's an adviser to Hillary, not paid by the US Gov't, and has no security clearance.

Wouldn't you say he has no business knowing about classified info?

I've not made up my mind who I am voting for, have you?

I could easily see boycotting this one in disgust.

Not at all.

The Ds are running Hillary and Bernie - Right now thats a negative on both

The Rs are running a handful that are slightly better (at best) right now. With the others being almost as bad as the 2 above.

If that's what you consider a "serious leak", what would you call it if her server was infiltrated by a hostile foreign agency? A super duper ultra serious leak?

Mishandling and passing classified information is mishandling and passing classified information!

If Hillary ever once sent this in an email "leaving for Chicago today at 2pm on AF1 with the President, call you when I land" to her daughter, husband, or anyone else without proper clearance she leaked classified information. She mishandled it by sending it on an unsecured system.

She is just as culpable having it on a personal server and no other individual got access to it as she would be if the entire Eastern Hemisphere got a hold of it. That's not my opinion, its a fact upon the current regulation on the handling of classified or sensitive material.

I haven't disagreed with that premise at all. I also agree that she should lose any security clearance she currently holds. She should lose two weeks pay and be busted down to E-1.

My point was - the statement that was made is that "we know about serious leaks". I simply asked what "serious leak" do we know about?
 
All of you have made up your mind that the mere fact of having a private server is disqualifying because it is at least possible that it would end up with classified or sensitive material on it. I get it, that's your right to feel that way.

I especially enjoyed all the threads calling for criminal charges when Colin Powell did it.

Oh, wait....

It SHOULD be disqualifying. And Colin Powell should be similarly disembowled.

However, the last I heard, he isn't running for POTUS (thank God), but if he did a similar thing when he was in the uniform, he should go to prison right along with Cankles.

Agreed.

You guys are making arguments against things I'm not denying.
 
Democratic presidential candidate and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton remarked that she loves Snapchat because “Those messages disappear all by themselves” at the Iowa Democratic Wing Ding Dinner on Friday.

Hillary said, “By the way, you may have seen that I recently launched a Snapchat account. I love it. I love it. Those messages disappear all by themselves.”


what an arrogant POS

I'll betcha a steak dinner that those messages that "disappear" can be found by the person(s) with the right technology. For anyone to believe that they disappear forever is deluding themselves. They exist somewhere, in some form, and will someday be retrievable. That is what technology does.

She turned over a server that held sensitive or classified info to her attorney that didn't have clearance. That's a serious leak.

Cyber security experts have determined that in contrast to Clinton’s assurances that her server was secure there were numerous security lapses found. Thus, giving China, Russia and other non friendly nations the opportunity to hack into her non secure server.

I would say that if the SecState's personal server that had been used in lieu of a secure government server had been infiltrated by hostile governments/factions, it would be a leak of the same proportion of a rainstorm that had a man named Noah building a boat.

Right, no disagreements.

The opportunity for "serious leaks" was there.
