Seriously, it's getting comical at this point how depraved and delusional Secretary has become...she knows Colin Powell is alive, right?

Wait a few days, Hills and Bubba will blame Powell for being part
of a vast right wing conspiracy because ...you know he is a Republican.

Powell became somewhat disassociated from the GOP when Condi Rice and her massive brain took his job(though technically he resigned)...

Sidenote: if Condi would run for president I would quit my job and buy a megaphone going around town to town yelling at people to vote for her...

I really liked Colin Powell, but I couldn't stand condi rice. Her giant brain was the problem. Here's my impression of condi talking to her husband about a trip to the grocery store:

Husband: remember when I told you we ran out of milk? Did you stop and grab milk on the way home?

Condi: of course I remember. We have such interesting conversations. Remember that conversation about dolf lundgren movies? It was great. We were at your brother's house, and he had that picture of that cat on the fridge. That's where I learned to make those orange juice smoothies.

She answered every single question like that, by not even remotely answering it, and she was so smart that she sidetracked every reporter, I never once saw anyone call her out. But if you cared about the question and really wanted to know the answer she was maddening to listen to.

Hillary Clinton Told F.B.I. Colin Powell Advised Her to Use Private Email

a reply to: Xcathdra

Advised or not, it was stupid idea. I would be immediately fired if I used personal mail for company business.

It simply doesn't matter what excuses she comes up with, or who she tries to blame. She has worked in and around government long enough, and would have had the briefings (the rules and expectations) when she took office as SoS.
Therefore, she knew what the rules were and willingly chose to ignore them. The carelessness excuse peddled by FBI talking head is till an offence, apparently, so even that by law carries a custodial sentence.

It doesn't matter therefore what the excuse of the day is, she broke the law and should be dealt with accordingly.

Some feminist and civil rights activist Hillary is.

"The bad black man made me do it!" "I am just a helpless ignorant girl. He tricked me and took advantage of my innocence."

I am surprised Hillary stopped short of calling Powell a "super predator".

It was Powell who raped that lady not my Bill!

Condi Rice does not, nor will she have a husband in there conventional sense...but that's another discussion..

Rice has a higher inherent, innate IQ than any reporter or politician so it was of immense joy watching her "dance" intellectual circles around people of lesser intellect...

There was a time when America was a fully functional meritocracy...not a PC fantasy land where everyone won a trophy for participating...

Those reporters and congressmen were intellectually efete when her brains might was brought to bear...she did not need breaks, coughing fits or strokes to excuse her behavior.

She used her pointed words to evicersate all who would argue her policies...
Why did she do this? Because she believed in the policies she originated as both Nations Security Advisor and Secretary of State...
When you believe what you are saying and tell the truth there is no reason to fumble, stutter or misspeak....it helped she had a mind of unparalleled prowess in the halls of Washington...

I tend to be fascinated by people with gigantic, transcendental minds(phage comes to mind) and Rice was the quickest, most inherently adept "politician" I saw in my lifetime...

Sadly she has [valid] reasons for not speaking the highest office in the land though I wish she would change that position...

Incorrect. Powell had always stated he would not run for any office. Know why ?

----------------------------------
Of course he would never run for office...neither would marshall or Rice(see my earlier post)..
I never asserted Powell wanted to seek elected office because it's not true...

And his disassociation from the Republican Party was fully realized when he voted for a democrat for president in the 2008 election...

Does that help?

Ok so I'm not trying to defend Hillary here but do you really think Colin will openly admit that he told her this? Of course he will deny it...that would bring forth unwanted attention his way. Of course, he could be telling the truth as well but just wanted to throw that out there.

The conversation they had was 1 year after Hillary was using her server. So unless you believe she used time travel, can you explain that?

Powell never had a private server.

Typical of her. Never take accountability. Always blame someone else or a 'short circuit'. As soon as Hillary deleted 33,000 emails she engaged in destruction of evidence and obstruction of justice, serious crimes that should have put her in prison no matter what Colin Powell had said or hadn’t said to her. She was probably in the delivery room after Chelsea was born saying "Oh no the kid isn't mine."

"I'm sorry guys. I short circuited again. It wasn't Colin who told me it was bigfoot, my bad"

No it was Colin Powell that told you Sadam Hussien had weapons of mass destruction and we had to invade right away.

And let's look a little deeper here...

Mr. Conason describes a conversation in the early months of Mrs. Clinton’s tenure at the State Department at a small dinner party hosted by Madeleine Albright, another former secretary of state, at her home in Washington. Henry Kissinger and Condoleezza Rice also attended.

“Toward the end of the evening, over dessert, Albright asked all of the former secretaries to offer one salient bit of counsel to the nation’s next top diplomat,” Mr. Conason writes. “Powell told her to use her own email, as he had done, except for classified communications, which he had sent and received via a State Department computer.”

Mr. Conason continued, “Saying that his use of personal email had been transformative for the department,” Mr. Powell “thus confirmed a decision she had made months earlier — to keep her personal account and use it for most messages.”

Hmmm...Ok well that is him saying it in a room full of highly credible witnesses...but what else is there?

Mr. Powell’s office released a statement on Thursday night saying he had no recollection of the dinner conversation. He did write Mrs. Clinton an email memo, which may exist in the F.B.I. files, describing his use of his personal email account for unclassified messages “and how it vastly improved communications within the State Department,” the statement said.

this story is a LEAK...Yet AGAIN...of classified material...The Clinton FBI Notes...

And the CLINTON CAMPAIGN ITSELF is calling for the full release of the notes so that the GOP who are leaking classified material can't leak selected spun BS out of context..

Prove to me that Clinton in the FBI interview claimed that Colin Powell's advice was the CAUSE that proceeded her email use...

She mentioned Powell's advice and didn't claim it came before she set up the email...

No lie here ...Unclassify and release the full notes...Prosecute the GOP who are leaking for political purposes.

Delete

That would be when Cheney corrupted the CIA into making up #### about Iraq's imminent world-threatening WMD, and, in front of the U.N., burned Powell's reputation for honesty for which he worked for 40 years.

Once again, information may not be classified unless it is determined to be a threat to the security of the US. That's it... read the EO. Very specific about what and why it may be classified.

It very clearly states that information may not be classified to cover up criminal activity.

It is a real stretch to call notes from a criminal investigation a threat to national security.....

Secretary Clinton supported the Iraq war...should she be in jail?
Secretary Kerry supported the Iraq war....should he be in jail?
