Because our current AG decided not to prosecute. If Obama doesnt grant Clinton a pardon I think she will go to jail when the new administration takes over.
I hope so, because everyone with a clearance knows you don't setup a personal server to conduct official gov business. That's just common knowledge. Especially for someone that's been working in the gov for 30+ years. She knew she was breaking the law.
it wasn't the LAW!!......are you incapable of reading ANYTHING other than right-wing blogs?
Correct. It was not the law.
That is why the RNC and Bush were able to run their own server during his admin. 22 million emails went missing in that case. Why no stink then?

But the RNC wasn't the U.S. State Department at the time was it.
No, but Bush was the President of the US.
During the 2007 Congressional investigation of the dismissal of eight U.S. attorneys, it was discovered that administration officials had been using a private Internet domain, called gwb43.com, owned by and hosted on an email server run by the Republican National Committee,[1] for various official communications. The domain name is an abbreviation for "George W. Bush, 43rd" President of the United States. The use of this email domain became public when it was discovered that J. Scott Jennings, the White House's deputy director of political affairs, was using a gwb43.com email address to discuss the firing of the U.S. attorney for Arkansas.[2] Communications by federal employees were also found on georgewbush.com (registered to "Bush-Cheney '04, Inc."[3]) and rnchq.org (registered to "Republican National Committee"[4]). Congressional requests for administration documents while investigating the dismissals of the U.S. attorneys required the Bush administration to reveal that not all internal White House emails were available. Conducting governmental business in this manner is a possible violation of the Presidential Records Act of 1978.[5] Over 5 million emails may have been lost.[6][7] Greg Palast claims to have come up with 500 of the Karl Rove emails, leading to damaging allegations.[8] In 2009, it was announced that as many as 22 million emails may have been lost.

You know my stance on both candidates, I do not like either one.
From my position of political ambivalence I can say I think she should have incurred some form of legal remonstration. While intent is hard to prove in this case I think her intent was to circumvent the standard protocol on the handling of classified information.

That has nothing to do with the point I was making. If you want to know that info, go find it.
You do realize that this is a completely different issue and not at all comparable?
GWB might have had some communications, but HRC was storing and sending classified information illegally
and possibly auctioning some of that information out to foreign powers and enemies of the state through the Clinton Foundation, and directly funding Isis with donations from these foreign powers.
I'm not saying GW was right for using his own server, but he wasn't storing top secret information there, he was discussing who to fire. It also doesn't mean he didn't use it for other reasons, but he didn't get caught, so what could be, would be, might be, isn't, where as in HRC's case, it's case closed -- she did it.

So I was reading through the warrant they released for Abedin's laptop that Weiner had and this is in there plain as day:
So 81 email chains contained classified info all the way to Top Secret at the time they were sent with 68 of them remaining classified to this day according to the warrant.
They also said this:
There were 22 that were Top Secret which if released could have exceptionally grave damage to national security.....
So I ask again....this is ALL known and is IN this warrant yet HRC, Huma and team are somehow remaining above the law on this? What reality are we living in?
This stinks of such a massive cover up it is insane. I truly believe all the crap in the MSM right now about Trump and Russia is to cover this stuff up....likely to cover up that HRC and team actually exposed this info, and if it was Russia then I would say that is a MUCH bigger story than anything Trump related.
It's like an alternate reality is happening here....I don't understand.

It's plainly in our face, no cover up at all. Really more of a 'what are you going to do about it?' than a cover up.

Then I guess your entire post had nothing to do with this thread.
As it pertains to the server aspect, you are correct. It's not the topic.
I was just commenting on the obvious hypocrisy.

If I recall the FBI press conference correctly they could not prove there was "intent" to violate the law, so they just chalked it up to being careless.
Isn't there something in the law books everywhere that says something to the extent of ignorance not being an excuse? Seems like I have heard that before....just not sure.

It was so over the top that I would not be surprised if she was grabbing her testicles with one hand while using the other to flip off whomever was supposed to get her to sign that document.

It is comparable. WH officials used a private server to communicate official business, which is against the law.
GWB might have had some communications, but HRC was storing and sending classified information illegally
Might have? Do you know for sure what he was sending, or his staff?
and possibly auctioning some of that information out to foreign powers and enemies of the state through the Clinton Foundation, and directly funding Isis with donations from these foreign powers.
Sure. Find that evidence and come tell me about it.
I'm not saying GW was right for using his own server, but he wasn't storing top secret information there, he was discussing who to fire. It also doesn't mean he didn't use it for other reasons, but he didn't get caught, so what could be, would be, might be, isn't, where as in HRC's case, it's case closed -- she did it.
Ok. That goes back to my comment about hypocrisy.

So lets arrest GWB and HRC and be done with it then?
We know she was auctioning access to the government through her foundation.
o when she's selling policy/access to policy to the Saudi Royal Family, and then we find out she's storing TOP SECRET information privately, and then using that money to fund ISIS [a terrorist organization] is it even a stretch to assume that she was selling this information too?
And you honestly don't believe she sold that top secret information?

Sadly, she won't go to jail over this. They really are above the law. Affluenza.
They are too damn rich and powerful to be treated like a commoner.
I would love to be wrong on this, but I just don't think so. There are too many cases where those with the $ get away with whatever they wish. I bet this pisses Martha Stewart off just a bit.
no,...they can't make the case in court in front of a jury...period.....ask any prosecutor, even trent gowdy who would like to see Hillary swing from the gallows, closed the case.
