DEAR STATE DEPARTMENT: WHERE IS HILLARY CLINTON’S OF-109 FORM?
According to people who would know, like National Review’s Shannen Coffin, on or near her last day as Secretary of State, per government policy, Ms. Clinton was required to sign what is known as the OF-109 form. Coffin, a former senior lawyer at the State Department, says that the OF-109 is an acknowledgement that the departing State Department employee has returned and/or turned over all official documents and records to the State Department.
Three crucially important points here:
Those records are not limited to classified material. All records must be left in the hands of the State Department.
Those records would include emails.
The OF-109 is signed under penalty of perjury.
For two days now (today will undoubtedly be the third), Fox News has requested the status of Ms. Clinton’s OF-109 form from the State Department. For two days now, State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki has dodged, weaved, parsed and ducked in ways that would impress Sugar Ray Robinson.
The reasons for the dodge are obvious. There is no upside to answering the question. If Ms. Clinton did sign the OF-109, she’s almost certainly guilty of perjury; she swore under oath that the State Department had everything when she knew that a lot of that everything was sitting in a server at a black-site known as her Chappaqua home.
If Ms. Clinton did not sign the OF-109, why not? Why was she given an exemption? Was the exemption legal? Where did the breakdown occur? Who is responsible for the breakdown?
One minute on the computer and Jen Psaki could pull up Hillary's of-109 form.
So WHY the evasion?

Let's assume for a moment that all the theories about a vast left-wing conspiracy are true, including control of certain media outlets.
Why are the New York Times and MSNBC taking the lead in this "exposure" of an email server?
Be consistent with your own beliefs for just a bit ... why would these known "left wing operatives" be doing this?
1. The truth about the private-email account and server has been known since at least 2013.
2. There is "no way to know" that for which there is no evidence. The email server is a black hole.
3. What do "both sides" really want us to take our eyes off of? Where the $6B from State actually went. The IG for State under Bush and Rice, Cookie Kronsgard, was forced out for misdirecting inquiries into "independent contractors" i.e. mercenaries in the Blackwater/Xe/Triple Canopy line of succession. His brother Buzzie Kronsgard (I'm not responsible for the ridiculous nicknames) was Number 3 in Bush's CIA and became a member of the Blackwater BOD.
The IG post was LEFT UNFILLED for a year under Bush/Rice, and for five years under Obama/Clinton/Kerry. Coincidence?
... and trust me, Clinton did not carry $6B out of State in her purse. (Or her pantsuit pockets.)
Distraction. Divide and Conquer. Diffuse and Misdirect.

State Department challenges Clinton claim that emails to officials ‘immediately’ saved
A State Department spokeswoman said Friday that the department did not start automatically archiving emails from senior officials until February of this year -- raising questions about Hillary Clinton's claim that her emails were "immediately" saved whenever she corresponded with colleagues.
The former secretary of state made that assertion during her press conference earlier this week -- and in a lengthy statement put out by her office -- as she defended her exclusive use of personal email. Clinton downplayed concerns that official emails could have been lost by suggesting anytime she emailed anyone with a ".gov" address, that email would be stored for posterity.
"The vast majority of my work emails went to government employees at their government addresses, which meant they were captured and preserved immediately on the system at the State Department," she said Tuesday.
But department spokeswoman Jen Psaki made clear on Friday that this was not the way the system worked.
She said the department only started automatically archiving emails for other senior officials in February.

fakedirt: is that a jab?
I read this pdf very carefully and yes I understand what is behind it if it is 100% legit.
i'm on the other side of the pond old chap so cannot really show political bias if that is what I feel your potential beef is about.
fakedirt: your use of caps could be construed as unusual coupled with the comment on my username. care to elaborate?
finally and with respect, what are your political leanings?
Obama adviser behind leak of Hillary Clinton’s email scandal
By Edward KleinMarch 14, 2015 | 9:33pm
It’s the vast left-wing conspiracy.
Obama senior adviser Valerie Jarrett leaked to the press details of Hillary Clinton’s use of a private e-mail address during her time as secretary of state, sources tell me.
But she did so through people outside the administration, so the story couldn’t be traced to her or the White House.
In addition, at Jarrett’s behest, the State Department was ordered to launch a series of investigations into Hillary’s conduct at Foggy Bottom, including the use of her expense account, the disbursement of funds, her contact with foreign leaders and her possible collusion with the Clinton Foundation.
Six separate probes into Hillary’s performance have been going on at the State Department. I’m told that the e-mail scandal was timed to come out just as Hillary was on the verge of formally announcing that she was running for president — and that there’s more to come.
Members of Bill Clinton’s camp say the former president suspects the White House is the source of the leak and is furious.
“Obama and Valerie Jarrett will go to any lengths to prevent Hillary from becoming president,” a source close to the White House told me. “They believe that Hillary, like her husband, is left of center, not a true-blue liberal.”
If she gets into the White House, they believe she will compromise with the Republicans in Congress and undo Obama’s legacy.
“With Obama’s approval,” this source continued, “Valerie has been holding secret meetings with Martin O’Malley [the former Democratic governor of Maryland] and [Massachusetts Sen.] Elizabeth Warren. She’s promised O’Malley and Warren the full support of the White House if they will challenge Hillary for the presidential nomination.”
State Department Ordered To Cough Up Hillary’s Flight Records
Judge Gladys Kessler of the U.S. District court for the District of Columbia ruled in favor of Citizens United, a conservative advocacy group, The New York Times reported.
Citizens United filed a Freedom of Information Act request in July for flight logs and expense records of all of Clinton’s official trips. When State failed to turn over the documents in time, the group filed suit in December.
“The American people have a right to know who accompanied Secretary Clinton on these trips,” Citizens United president David Bossie said at the time. “Were there any big political contributors to previous or future Clinton campaigns on board? Were there any Clinton Foundation financial supporters on board?”
It was also revealed that the Clinton Foundation, the former first family’s charity, received foreign donations while Hillary served as secretary of state, raising questions about possible conflicts of interest.
“Clearly, the State Department is not getting the benefit of the doubt from judges anymore,” Bossie told The New York Times after Friday’s ruling.

Poking a wounded and cornered 'Hildabeest' can be dangerous...I have to imagine the Clintons will be wanting some revenge on the Obamas.
Perhaps, reason enough to hope she stays in and wins. 'Payback is a Bitch'

Lots of infighting among the high level Left Wings in power.
They just can't seem to get things straightened out can they.
Can't imagine why.
