FBI found hundreds of classified files on Petraeus biographer Broadwell’s computer

Of course it's not going to happen. She's running for President. If you're being investigated by the FBI people aren't going to let that go.

""On April 23, 2015, Petraeus pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of mishandling classified materials. He was given a two-year probationary period and a fine of $100,000""

I copied the above from Wikipedia. I seriously doubt Hillary and her team are going to want to get into a debate about how her actions compared to Petraeus considering his outcome. (that obviously doesn't mean we can't do it here)

I'm just as partisan as the person so I no different or better than anybody else but this is a classic partisan case where you have no problem posting tons of negative things about Trump but get very defensive when it comes to Hillary. Again, all of us who engage in partisan politics do this myself included.

I'd be defensive about any woman politician in this situation because I think all of them get more scrutiny and criticism than the male pols.

538 has an article out about the much higher number of black people today who think OJ is guilty compared to 1995 when the verdict came out. They give several reasons for it but one of the main ones is many black people at the time were just happy a black man beat the system and the cops were shown up.

Maybe that's similar here where women who want to see a woman in power will overlook things that would get someone else in trouble for the sake of breaking the glass ceiling.

I was reading something the other day where one of his legal team said he will confess before too long.

Petraeus is a real peach. Cheated on both his wife and mistress with a third woman.

"In "Collateral Damage: Petraeus/Power/Politics and the Abuse of Privacy," which [Jill] Kelley self-published, the former "honorary ambassador" of CENTCOM finally explains what the fuss was all about: The allegation by Broadwell that Kelley intimately fondled Petraeus under the table at that restaurant on Easter weekend four years ago. It would all seem so silly and inconsequential if the personal drama hadn't been so incredibly consequential. Kelley denies it all, and begins the book with a lengthy insistence that she has always been faithful to her husband and has never "acted inappropriately."

But she also suggests in her book that Petraeus told the FBI that the fondling did indeed take place. A source familiar with the law enforcement investigation confirms that Petraeus did tell the FBI that inappropriate and intimate fondling took place -- and that it was mutual for both Petraeus and Kelley."

She admitted setting up a private server. She is under investigation for that whole debacle. There hasn't been any resolution yet. Why is that so hard for you Trump hacks to understand?

what you dont understand is that the content of the emails dont matter. The setting up of the private server guarded by your own IT and lawyers is. That was done purely to avoid any accountability on her part. FOIA requests were sent to state on other matters and they said they didnt have any info because surprise the info is with the private server. When an FOIA request was sent directly to her surprise again all the emails were deleted.

How can you not understand this? When you elect a politician that already shows she has no plans to be accountable to anyone for her actions then you get a dictator.

Let me ask you a follow up question. Do you support every elected and appointed government official setting up their own private servers instead of using government materials?

For most of us this is not about the classification of information. This is about a person who set up a system so noone would be able to hold her accountable for any of her actions in office.

Again I'm saying Hillary was 100% wrong in using the private server and everything that went with it. However, the only places I've seen where she "refused to cooperate" were right-wing sites.

There is that word again!! If there is any word that sums up what is wrong with the first world it must be 'inappropriate'.
