“Drip, drip, drip” — so US District Judge Emmett Sullivan described the constant trickle of disclosures on Hillary Clinton’s email.

“When does it stop?” he demanded.

With the Clintons, it never does. Ever.

It’s not that they invite scandal. They greet it at the door, give it a seat by the fire, beg it to stay for a few more rounds and then crash on the couch — or in the Lincoln Bedroom.

After two presidents who’ve served beyond personal reproach, many Americans have forgotten the eight-year stream of Clinton scandals — right up to the pardons for fat-cat donors in Bill’s final days in the White House. If Hillary wins come November, it’ll all start up again.

Indeed, Judge Sullivan just ensured that she’d take office with at least one investigation still open. He ruled that top State Department officials and Clinton aides can be questioned under oath about whether her private email server was set up specifically to evade the freedom-of-information laws.

Oh, and the FBI’s still doing its criminal probe into Clinton and her cohorts’ mishandling of top-secret information.

Mind you, Judge Sullivan was named to the bench by Bill Clinton — and he made it clear he’s fed up with this stalling. He even left open the possibility of ordering Hillary and Huma Abedin to testify.

“How on Earth can the court conclude there is not at minimum a reasonable suspicion of bad faith?” he asked.

“It just boggles the mind a little that the State Department allowed this practice” — a private email server located in her home — “to occur in the first place. It is very, very troubling.”

We guess the judge has forgotten the ’90s, too: This is just how the Clintons roll.
 
Well, it's hard for them to stop since the wingnut echo chamber of hatred and lies keeps making up new ones from day to day.

Did you coach Monica Lewinski on her good manners? You know, swallowing instead of spitting?
 
Yawn. Wake me when you guys ever find anything. I'm getting bored hearing about her illegal activities everyday without any real evidence.

As long as kool aide drinkers like you Ciggy keep believing that, they will continue to flaunt the law. They rely on sycophants who will accept any explanation. Good job on helping them keep the lies alive

Point of order -- this isn't a new "scandal", so I'm not sure where you get "the scandals never stop."

And, btw, when you say "It's the New York Post" as if that adds credibility, you kind of expose yourself as not knowing much about anything.

Not only is this an old scandal, there really isn't much new information about it. For as little we actually know about the details of this case, there's a disproportionately large amount of speculation about it.
 
At least he finds articles to do the talking for him. More than what you serve up around here. Can't you find a better shtick than to follow other posters around like an annoying little brother?

Which is exactly what he should stick to. As for your "shtick"comment, stop focusing on the handful of times I post these types of comments and stick with the many more that I post legitimate arguments. Just because you don't agree with my points, doesn't mean they aren't legitimate. And "shtick"? Yours would be starting threads making personal attacks against every single GOP candidate. You know, like Rubio is the pussy candidate? Real intelligent comments there, Red. If you'd like more examples,I can sure give them to you, although I'm sure you know what I'm talking about.

Which wingnut chamber would that be? As you well know there is two of them. You'll have to be more specific for people to decipher which one, especially since you mentioned hatred and lies into the description.

I thought my side was the moon bats? Is that right? I dated a guy who called me moon doggie. I thought it was cute but he could have been calling me crazy. I wouldn't have cared, he was a gymnast at Oklahoma.
 
Unlike you Jan. When you post I look the opposite direction for the truth. It may not be there, either...but it sure isn't inthe direction you want me to look.

Your opinion. You see, when I disagree with your points, I don't call you a liar or say what you're posting is not true. I simply disagree with your point of view. Apparently, your opinion is the truth, and those people's points who disagree with your opinion are not the truth. Again, that is your opinion, and your opinion only. Roughly half of America, depending on the subject, disagrees with your view. I guess to them, when you post, they look the opposite way for the truth. Of course, in your mind, they're idiots that lack thinking skills.

Well, they probably do lack critical thinking skills.....I just get tired of this right-wing diatribe BS....It has been coming hard and fast ever since Jimmy Carter...and now, as I read more and more, this right-wing fear-mongering has been a specialty of the GOP since the days of FDR. Same tripe. Every frigg'in day. Same BS. Just different messengers. But all right-wing nuts. They have been sayin' this type of crap for 75 years.....And damn little of the predictions have ever come to fruition.

So ever single thing they've ever been investigated for.......all the way back to Hillary being dismissed while working on Watergate......is all made up?

Stop being willfully ignorant.
well, a lot of it certainly is "unfounded".....Not meaning "innocent" just meaning not guilty and PRESUMED innocent. There's that damned "presumption of innocence" thingy again. What the hell were those Founder's thinking?

Considering that they haven't been charged with anything, yep.


Umm... Perjury? Disbarment? Ethics violations.....
Being fired from a huge congressional investigation for being unethical is pretty big too.

This email issue is not going to go away. And rightfully so. Other individuals have been destroyed for doing less with sensitive and classified information. Yet Hillary has gotten pass after pass. The FBI is on it now....and her staffers are being called in for questioning. This will not end well for Hillary.
 
You don't get fired for being good at your job. You don't get convicted for perjury for telling the truth. You don't get disbarred because you're an ethical lawyer.

Yes or No?

Do you truly believe that every scandal that's been associated with them to be true?

Why do you think they haven't been charged with anything? Wouldn't happen to do with their connections would it?

Let me tell you something Huey, if someone in the military, or even a military contractor had Secret emails wrongfully and illegally sent to their private residence, they would be completely f'd. No debating that fact whatsoever. So why does this person get a special pass? I'll tell you why, because she's above the law simply due to status.

Supporting that kind of person is NOT the Liberal way.

THat is not necessarily true. You don't get fired from your job as long as you don't make waves. That would be more true. Good folks with ethics get "fired" daily. I have seen it. I'm sure you have too.
 
name them all. And then i'll answer.

OK. Thanks for playing. You're the one that made the claim that they weren't all made up which indicates you think they're all true. Yet you want me to go find the evidence to a claim you made. I see why you raise C students.

Not in the political world Joel. As long as you do what your campaign financers want you to do, you're covered by them. They will gladly find a way to loophole you out of issues, in order to keep you in the place where you can make things happen.

Corruption happens at all levels, and some of it, is just down right deviant. Imagine having the type of power and authority some of these people have. To think they are going to stay innocent, or even marginally decent is asking wishing on a prayer.
 
More and likely yes, if something comes out there is usually some truth to it. Fred is stupid enough to believe that the common laws apply to these types. How many instances do people need to see that the law most certainly does not.

Do the one about George HW Bush being involved in the Reagan shooting next!! That's always good for a laugh or two.

I hate to break it to you but everyone mostly views you as entertainment. Nobody ever takes anything you say seriously. Your best hope is that stummingram comes along to save your feeble attempt at anarchy.

The female that Petraeus shared information with, had a Top Secret clearance at the time he did so....and his career was completely ruined, because she didn't have the "need to know" on that information and was not read into it. What Hillary did by having an unsecured server...which was a direct violation of regulations and has been found to have been hacked by adversaries...is a far worse. Blatant violation of the FIOA, holding Classified information on an unsecured server(which would get any military or intelligence official prison time), violation of the NARA, and violation of mishandling of classified information.

We already KNOW there was classified information on the server. The claim that it wasn't classified when she got the email? Anyone who has worked with C.I. and Secret information knows very well, that information does not go out without being classified FIRST.

One thing is true...and everyone knows it. The Clintons will lie, cheat and steal for every ounce of power they can grab.
And I say this as someone who voted for Bill twice and enjoyed his presidency. I've also worked for the Clinton Global Initiative, and shot for Hillary's 2008 Florida Campaign.
 
Where did I say they were "ALL" true?

Well you called ciggy ignorant for thinking they're all made up. I think you're ignorant for thinking they're all true. Do you think they're all true? Ciggy never said they were "all made up" either. If you prefer to not be painted with such a broad brush try not painting others with the same brush.

Do you ever get tired of rebutting like a child?

Not to someone like you I don't. Sorry that you spilled your child's average GPA out here for all of us to see. Thankfully I'm still around to remind you of it. Jabberjaw wasn't as lucky thanks to you running to the mods to complain that the thread didn't go how you'd hoped.

And you're a liar too. 9 years ago, dude.

how small is your life and brain? Apparently TINY.

Truth hurts. People remember these things from this board. I've seen multiple people jab at you about it. Hey at least community college is cheap. Listen I didn't agree with what Jabber said either. But at least just ask the mods to delete the post. You don't have to have him banned. It was you who brought up the initial topic.

Now that we have that out of the way, feel free to continue your "woeful ignorance" about the scandals involving the Clintons. You've proven it in this thread already.

1. it was quickly revealed that the whole post was a troll. But you insisted and still do that it wasn't.( and are the only one who insists) Do you really think I had a "moral dilemma " on my hands that I couldn't figure out? Come on, man........I know you've got a good sense of humor.......think about it.
2. Yes......I actually jab myself for it here quite often. But you always take it to a different level than others do
.
3. TOM has confirmed that stated more than once that I never asked for anyone to be banned or removed. However, YOU would let it go. Jabberjaw went WAY too far.....along with one other poster........but I never asked for his banning, nor the thread to be removed.

4. 9 years, dude. 9 freaking years. My daughter is in her Jr. Year. This happened when she was in 2nd grade. She has 2 division 3 lacrosse offers, has a full schedule of honors classes, and plans to attend the U of I.....because it's where she wants to go.

let....it....go.
